Rendering of NONFICTION Home - Garman Homes
The Developers of Chatham Park - a 7,068-acre mixed-use community located in Pittsboro, North Carolina - announced that new home builder Garman Homes will be building new home plans from their NONFICTION brand in Vineyards at Chatham Park.
"Chatham Park is a one-of-a-kind community, and the promise of what life looks like inside that community is tremendous," said Alaina Money-Garman, founder and CEO of Garman Homes. "We want to bring the best of what Garman Homes has to offer to this incredible project."
While Garman Homes was the first residential builder to partner with Chatham Park and have already built and sold out of The Cottages Collection in Vineyards, they will be introducing new home plans under their debut brand: NONFICTION. NONFICTION will soon boast single-family homes from their Quotables Collection which includes four-floor plans from the high-$300s.
Furthering the relationship with Garman Homes is expected to contribute to what will be a high-growth year for the community. Nearly 500 homesites are scheduled to be delivered or in some stage of construction during 2021. This increased activity will trigger the addition of new home builders, price points, and a variety of architectural styles which will eventually establish the community as one of the largest in the area.
Garman Homes was founded in 2007 and are known for their four Garman Differences - they hire Rock Stars, guarantee a closing date, have the G-Team that ensures a smooth transition from home builder to the homeowner, and they also give back with a portion of every sale going toward local causes and charities.
"We look forward to our continued partnership with The Garman Homes Team," said Executive Vice President Vanessa Jenkins of Preston Development. "They consistently bring creative and inspired floor plans to homeowners and add incredible value to the community as a whole."
Garman Homes rejoins the builder team with new home starts expected to commence immediately to meet pent-up demand.
"Our Sales and Information Center opened last year with only two price points and products," continues Jenkins. "It is exciting to see the array of home designs we can now offer our clients, and Garman Homes always provides fresh, new looks and a unique homebuying experience."

In 2024, French artisanal cookie company Sucré did a four-day pop-up in Hong Kong.

They landed on familiar Asian...

Hong Kong designer Kinyan Lam’s autumn/winter 2026 collection, Grounded, is more than a seasonal drop. It sets a clear vision for the future of his eponymous brand: that slowing down is the only way forward. “I heard a saying that plants and trees have two ways of growing: they explode into the world, but their roots continue to dig deep into the soil,” says Lam, who is in his thirties. “Right now, I am just a small tree, and I want to grow my roots deeper so I can grow into a big tree. This is...
