Countryhouse is one of Fearrington Village’s townhome communities–a neighborhood of 201 townhomes of varying sizes and designs, all built as either duplexes or triplexes, and arranged in cul de sacs called “Closes.” Some of the Closes have nearly 20 units in them; the smallest has three. All are sited to take advantage of the beautiful North Carolina terrain and trees. Every unit has a front porch, and either a deck, sunroom, or screened porch from which it’s easy to enjoy the many varieties of birds that call Fearrington home, or to watch deer walk gracefully through the yards. The design of Countryhouse and the NC climate invite people to spend time out-of-doors, whether walking with friends, walking their dogs, or congregating for a social hour. A special feature is the lovely Woodland Garden located at the end of Wealdstone.

R.B. and the late Jenny Fitch began creating Fearrington Village in 1974. Over the past nearly 50 years, Fearrington has grown to be a residential community that is home to over 2,000 residents, plus Belted Galloway cattle, Tennessee Fainting goats, Columbian Wyandotte chickens, and some donkeys. The Village Center has boutique shops, restaurants, and offices, as well as a beautiful park with two ponds (much loved by the resident ducks and herons). All are in a beautifully landscaped setting. The residential areas are either single-family homes on a wide range of lot sizes, or townhouse communities.
