Less than a half mile from the American Tobacco Trail and Herndon Park, Fairfield is one of the few remaining sweet spots in Southwest Durham still outside the city limits (no city taxes!!) The drive past Herndon Hills Farm (pick your own strawberries, blueberries, and grapes!) feels like rural North Carolina, but not to worry—it's less than two miles from the urban bustle of Southpoint!

Southwest Durham's Fairfield Neighborhood
The Oaks
The Oaks is one of Chapel Hill's premier neighborhoods, with elegant custom homes set on expansive lots. Home to the Chapel Hill Country Club, The Oaks boasts an abundance of properties with beautiful golf course views. Not a golfer? No worries. Many homes enjoy lush wooded lots; and it's simply a lovely place to live, with the ability to walk or bike for miles, including to the shops and restaurants of nearby Meadowmont. The Oaks boasts an amazing location, with the neighborhood set perfectly on the Chapel Hill/Durham border. Properties range from villas in the $500's to estates well over $2M, and there's an occasional lot that comes up for sale, too. If you see Wendy out walking say hello; she lives around the corner.
