A new Disney-planned community is coming soon, but it won’t be located in Florida or California!
According to a news report from People, Disney’s newest planned community, courtesy of Storyliving by Disney, will be in North Carolina.
The first Storyliving by Disney development is in California. However, People reports the second, dubbed Asteria, will be located in North Carolina near Raleigh, Durham and Chapel Hill.
Storyliving by Disney caters to “those looking to write [the] next chapter of their lives with Disney,” the company said, adding that Asteria is “inspired by the spirit of discovery” and will be “designed to encourage exploration of the region’s natural beauty and spark life-long learning.”
“The announcement of the Asteria community builds upon strong initial interest for our first Storyliving by Disney community in California and will expand Disney-branded communities to the East Coast,” Claire Bilby, senior vice president and general manager of Disney Signature Experiences Emerging Businesses, said in a statement reported by People. “Our team has been working closely with Disney Imagineers to develop a unique vision for this project inspired by Walt Disney’s innate curiosity and North Carolina’s spirit of discovery.”
Asteria will comprise more than 4,000 units, including single-family and multi-family homes, and some sites will be designated for those aged 55 and up. Amenities will include a wellness and recreation center, restaurant, sports courts, swimming pools, a community garden and outdoor space for lawn games, events and fire pits.
People reports that sales for homes in the community are expected to begin by 2027.
