Experience timeless elegance and country club living in Cary's prestigious Preston community.

WELCOME TO PRESTON

Prestige, tradition, and timeless elegance in the heart of Cary.

As one of Cary’s most iconic country club communities, Preston sets the standard for luxury living in the Triangle. Anchored by the prestigious Prestonwood Country Club — home of the PGA TOUR’s SAS Championship — the neighborhood offers a refined lifestyle with a deep sense of tradition.

Wide boulevards, mature trees, and custom-built estates surround the club’s three 18-hole golf courses, with peaceful lakes and manicured landscapes adding to the community’s stately charm.
