News Title:Ryan Homes Adds New Signature Series Collection to Sterling Oaks in Ash, NC
Ryan Homes is expanding its home offerings at Sterling Oaks in Ash, North Carolina, with the introduction of an entirely new collection of homes. In November 2026, the builder added its Signature Series to the community, bringing three new floor plans to Sterling Oaks and giving prospective buyers more choices in both home size and design.
The new Signature Series includes the Avon, Silverleaf and Geneva models, with starting prices ranging from $304,990 to $369,990. These homes introduce larger floor plans, additional design features and upgraded interior finishes, providing another level of choice for buyers considering Sterling Oaks.
Sterling Oaks is a new home community located in Ash, a rural and quiet area of Brunswick County just north of Carolina Shores and not far from the North Carolina/South Carolina border. The community is approximately 20 minutes from coastal destinations such as Shallotte, Ocean Isle Beach and Sunset Beach, and less than an hour from both Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, and Wilmington, North Carolina. Brunswick Plantation is another residential community located nearby.
Sterling Oaks is being developed on approximately 76.12 acres, with 338 residential units approved for development. Ryan Homes is the builder responsible for the community.
Ryan Homes began closing on its initial single-family homes in Sterling Oaks in late 2025. Since those first closings, the homes have generally sold from the $260,000s to the $330,000s, with an average selling price close to $300,000.
The builder has continued adjusting its selection of floor plans since the community first opened. In July 2026, Ryan Homes introduced the Sequoia model, although that plan has since been removed from its current offerings. The Evergreen was subsequently added in August 2026, providing another three-bedroom option alongside the existing Rosewood.
Now, the November introduction of the Signature Series represents another significant expansion of the community's home selection. Rather than simply adding more similarly sized entry-level designs,
Ryan Homes is introducing three larger homes with starting prices above its existing Classic Series offerings.
The New Signature Series at Sterling Oaks
Avon
The Avon is the entry-level model in Ryan Homes' new Signature Series collection at Sterling Oaks. This single-level home offers approximately 1,513 square feet of living space, three bedrooms, two full bathrooms and an attached two-car garage.
The Avon features an open-concept design connecting the great room and gourmet kitchen. Ryan Homes highlights upgraded kitchen cabinetry, quartz countertops, pendant lighting and nine-foot ceilings among the home's included design features. The owner's suite includes a walk-in closet, double-sink vanity and tiled shower. A covered porch also provides an additional outdoor living option.
The Avon will appeal to buyers looking for a larger one-level home with upgraded finishes and the convenience of single-story living.
As of November 2026, Ryan Homes is offering the Avon model in Sterling Oaks starting from $304,990+.
Silverleaf
The Silverleaf provides a substantial increase in living space, offering approximately 2,107 square feet, three bedrooms, three full bathrooms and a two-car garage.
This two-story home is designed around a first-floor owner's suite, giving homeowners the convenience of having their primary bedroom on the main level while still providing additional living space upstairs. The main living area features an open-concept great room, dining area and kitchen, with upgraded cabinetry, quartz countertops, pendant lighting, a double oven and nine-foot ceilings.
The owner's suite includes a tray ceiling, walk-in closet and private bathroom with a tiled shower and double vanity. Another bedroom and full bathroom are also located on the first floor, while the upstairs level provides an additional bedroom, bathroom and loft.
With its combination of first-floor living space and additional rooms upstairs, the Silverleaf offers flexibility for homeowners who want room for guests, a home office or other uses without giving up a main-level owner's suite.
As of November 2026, Ryan Homes is offering the Silverleaf model in Sterling Oaks starting from $349,990+.
Geneva
The Geneva is currently the largest and highest-priced of the three new Signature Series models at Sterling Oaks. This two-story design offers approximately 2,197 square feet of living space, four bedrooms, two full bathrooms, an additional half bath and a two-car garage.
Like the Silverleaf, the Geneva features a first-floor owner's suite, with the remaining bedrooms and a flexible loft providing additional space upstairs. Its open-concept main living area connects the great room, dining area and kitchen, creating a spacious central gathering area.
The kitchen includes upgraded cabinetry, quartz countertops, pendant lighting and a double oven. Nine-foot ceilings, tray ceilings in the great room and owner's suite, and a private owner's bathroom with a tiled shower and double vanity add to the home's design features.
The Geneva gives buyers another option if they need more bedrooms and additional living space while still preferring the convenience of a first-floor owner's suite.
As of November 2026, Ryan Homes is offering the Geneva model in Sterling Oaks starting from $369,990+.
The Classic Series Models at Sterling Oaks
While the Signature Series is the newest addition to Sterling Oaks, Ryan Homes continues to offer five additional floor plans through its Classic Series. These homes provide a range of sizes, layouts and starting prices, including several options for buyers who prefer more affordable new construction.
Ashgrove
The Ashgrove is the smallest and most affordable of the current floor plans at Sterling Oaks. This single-level home offers approximately 1,100 square feet of living space, three bedrooms, two bathrooms and a one-car garage.
The Ashgrove features an open-concept layout that brings the kitchen, dining area and great room together into a central living space. The kitchen includes a spacious island and pantry, while the private owner's suite features a walk-in closet and en-suite bathroom. Two additional bedrooms provide flexibility for guests, a home office or hobbies.
A centrally located laundry area and optional covered porch add to the home's convenience.
As of November 2026, Ryan Homes is pricing the Ashgrove model in Sterling Oaks from $259,990+.
Evergreen
The Evergreen home type in Sterling Oaks has three bedrooms, two-and-a-half bathrooms, a two-car garage and approximately 1,485 square feet of living space.
The Evergreen offers a smart, streamlined design that makes everyday living feel effortless. The main level features an open-concept layout where the kitchen, dining area and great room flow together, creating a comfortable space for both daily life and casual gatherings. A covered front entry adds to the home's welcoming feel, while the attached two-car garage provides added convenience.
Upstairs, the owner's suite and two secondary bedrooms, along with a flexible living area, give homeowners room to adapt, whether they need a home office, play space or quiet retreat. Thoughtful storage, a conveniently located laundry area and available options for outdoor living complete the design.
One interesting aspect of the Evergreen is how it compares with the Rosewood, another three-bedroom home offered at Sterling Oaks. The Evergreen provides 1,485 square feet, two-and-a-half bathrooms and a two-story layout, while the Rosewood has 1,434 square feet, two bathrooms and a single-level design. The two homes are therefore complementary rather than redundant, offering buyers a choice between a traditional two-story layout and the convenience of one-level living.
As of November 2026, Ryan Homes is pricing the Evergreen model in Sterling Oaks from $279,990+.
Rosewood
The Rosewood home type in Sterling Oaks has three bedrooms, two bathrooms, a two-car garage and approximately 1,434 square feet of living space.
The Rosewood makes everyday living effortless with its smart, one-level design. Step into a welcoming foyer with plenty of space for storage, leading into a bright, open great room that flows seamlessly into the gourmet kitchen. A large center island and dedicated dining area create the perfect gathering space for hosting or enjoying a quiet evening at home.
The private owner's suite offers a comfortable retreat with a walk-in closet and dual-vanity bathroom, while two additional bedrooms and a full bathroom provide flexibility for guests, family or hobbies. A convenient laundry area and two-car garage add to the home's functionality.
As of November 2026, Ryan Homes is pricing the Rosewood model in Sterling Oaks from $289,990+.
Fairview
The Fairview home type in Sterling Oaks offers approximately 1,927 square feet of living space, three bedrooms, three bathrooms and a two-car garage.
The Fairview offers a blend of comfort and flexibility with a thoughtfully designed layout. At the heart of the home, the open-concept kitchen features a large center island that flows seamlessly into the dining area and great room, making it ideal for gathering with family or entertaining friends. A covered rear porch provides an additional outdoor living option.
The main-level owner's suite provides a private retreat, while an additional first-floor bedroom and bathroom make everyday living convenient for guests or a home office. A versatile flex space adds even more room to personalize. Upstairs, a loft, third bedroom and full bathroom create an additional private living area.
As of November 2026, Ryan Homes is pricing the Fairview model in Sterling Oaks from $319,990+.
Woodford
The Woodford is another larger floor plan in the Classic Series at Sterling Oaks. This two-story design offers approximately 2,275 square feet of living space, five bedrooms, three bathrooms and a two-car garage.
The Woodford offers space and flexibility with a bright, open-concept design that makes everyday living and entertaining feel effortless. The great room flows seamlessly into the kitchen and dining area, creating a natural gathering space, while the option for a covered porch lets homeowners extend their living outdoors.
A first-floor bedroom and full bathroom provide a convenient setup for guests, multigenerational living or a private home office. Upstairs, four additional bedrooms and a versatile loft offer plenty of room to spread out. The spacious owner's suite serves as a relaxing retreat with dual walk-in closets and a private bathroom.
As of November 2026, Ryan Homes is pricing the Woodford model in Sterling Oaks from $334,990+.
Eight Floor Plans Now Available at Sterling Oaks
With the addition of the Signature Series, Ryan Homes now offers eight different floor plans at Sterling Oaks, ranging from the approximately 1,100-square-foot Ashgrove to the larger two-story Geneva.
The current selection provides buyers with a variety of choices in both price and design. The Classic Series includes the Ashgrove, Evergreen, Rosewood, Fairview and Woodford, with starting prices ranging from $259,990 to $334,990. The new Signature Series adds the Avon, Silverleaf and Geneva, with starting prices ranging from $304,990 to $369,990.
The difference between the two collections is particularly notable. While the Classic Series provides several relatively affordable options, the Signature Series introduces homes with additional square footage, upgraded interior features and more spacious layouts. Buyers can also choose between single-level homes and two-story designs, including several options with first-floor owner's suites.
For a community that began welcoming its first homeowners in late 2025, the expanded selection represents a notable development. Ryan Homes is continuing to build out Sterling Oaks while broadening its offerings to accommodate buyers with different space requirements and budgets.
Located inland from the Brunswick County beaches, Sterling Oaks offers a quieter residential setting while remaining within convenient driving distance of Ocean Isle Beach, Sunset Beach, Shallotte and the greater Myrtle Beach area.
