Belton Street Underway in Sedgefield
Sedgefield is getting a new development bringing luxury homes at more approachable prices than in Dilworth or Myers Park. Builder David Weekly Homes is behind the project which will replace one-story duplexes with 41 new homes. These homes will be a combination of single-family and paired villas. They are being built by the Central Living division at David Weekly Homes which focuses on high-density, for-sale housing.
The paired villas are a new trend in upscale duplexes. These work a little bit differently than a traditional duplex with each side of the building sold separately. This makes them more like a two home townhome than a traditional duplex. They will have low-maintenance exteriors and a great small community feel.
Homes here will range in size from 2,500 to 3,100 square feet. Expect these homes to be packed with luxury features. The model home currently under construction features a covered porch and owner’s retreat with private balcony. The model home should be completed in January. Expect gourmet kitchens, ample storage, home offices, spa-like bathrooms and more. There will also be many options to make these homes truly unique for your family.
Homes in Belton Street will start around $500,000. Students living in the neighborhood attend award winning Selwyn Elementary, Selwyn Middle and Myers Park High Schools. Please verify school assignments as they are subject to change.
Belton Street is located just east of South Boulevard, within walking distance to the LYNX light rail. This is a great walkable location with grocery stores, entertainment, restaurants, and more within a quick walk. There is also easy access to Uptown Charlotte, SouthEnd, I-77, I-277, and Charlotte Douglas International Airport. A quick drive will have you at SouthPark Mall with even more options for world class shopping, dining, and entertainment.
