Tuesday, August 25th, 2026

Luxury home builder Peachtree Residential is expanding into the Hickory, North Carolina market with the introduction of Saddlewood Knoll, a new boutique community in North Hickory, as well as a growing collection of luxury homes on scattered homesites throughout the region.
The expansion marks Peachtree Residential's first presence in Hickory and reflects the company's continued growth across North Carolina. Known for building distinctive homes in highly desirable locations, Peachtree Residential is bringing its signature craftsmanship and personalized customer experience to one of the state's most sought-after destinations.
"Hickory has become one of North Carolina's most exciting places to live, offering an incredible combination of natural beauty, outdoor recreation and a vibrant downtown," said David Borreson, CEO of Peachtree Residential. "We're excited to introduce our homes to this growing market and provide buyers with opportunities to build in both a thoughtfully planned community and on individual homesites throughout the area."
Located in northwest Hickory, Saddlewood Knoll will feature just 38 single-family homes in a scenic setting about a half mile from Lake Hickory and approximately five miles from downtown Hickory. Homebuyers will enjoy thoughtfully designed floor plans with features including first- or second-floor owner's suites, optional three-car garages, designer-curated finishes and flexible living spaces designed for today's lifestyles.
In addition to Saddlewood Knoll, Peachtree Residential is offering luxury homes on select scattered homesites throughout Hickory, Rock Barn and Troutman. This will provide buyers with opportunities to own a new home in established neighborhoods such as Rock Barn Country Club and Statesville Country Club. Available homesites and inventory opportunities will continue to expand as new properties become available throughout the market.
One move-in ready opportunity is currently available at 80 42nd Avenue NW in Hickory. The five-bedroom, four-bath home offers approximately 3,488 square feet of living space and showcases the high level of craftsmanship and attention to detail that defines every Peachtree Residential home.
Hickory continues to attract homebuyers seeking a high quality of life, thanks to its location in the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains, access to Lake Hickory, revitalized downtown, thriving arts scene and convenient proximity to both Charlotte and Asheville. National publications have also recognized the city as one of the country's top housing markets and among the South's most affordable places to retire.
For more than 38 years, Peachtree Residential has built distinctive homes throughout metro Atlanta, Georgia, Charlotte, Statesville and Hickory, North Carolina, earning a reputation for exceptional craftsmanship, innovative design and outstanding customer service. Every home is backed by the company's proprietary Foundation to Rooftop Gold Standard of Approval, a comprehensive quality assurance program that includes multiple inspections throughout construction and dedicated customer support after closing. Homes come with a 10 year structural warranty and no additional charge.
