SOUTH CHARLOTTE NEIGHBORHOODS
Bordering South Carolina, the South Charlotte area is a bustling suburb for those wanting “newer” homes, mostly built after 1990, top-ranked schools, and plenty of Targets and shopping centers nearby. With the new Ballantyne area booming with Go Ballantyne and live music at the AMP, this once snubbed area of “Ballantyne” which seemed so far away, is now feeling a lot closer to “things” for the active person. South Charlotte has many pockets which can be confusing to someone new to our area.
Blakeney, South Charlotte, Waverly, Ballantyne
These areas are bordered by the town of Matthews and Pineville, which will feel just a little more “small” town with cute historic downtowns to explore.
Let’s get back to South Charlotte! Within this area, you will find the 4-mile creek greenway. A true destination for someone seeking a beautiful nature trail in the middle of the “suburb.” You can visit Trader Joe’s, Starbucks, and other small businesses before or after your walk! Bordering this special gem is a community called TOUCHSTONE VILLAGE; tucked behind Touchstone Village is a 54-home community called Wilshire. These homes were built in the early 1990s and developed by Crosland. The Touchstone Village homes will have low ceilings, smaller rooms, and popcorn ceilings–however, most have stunning .50-acre lots!
Either way, the bonus of living near here is the quick access to the greenway, 485, 51, South Park, and Ballantyne. It is a true gem for someone who doesn’t want to be FAR OUT from Uptown Charlotte and keep their social calendar open to options to get to so many places in “15 minutes easily.”
