The Charlotte Business Journal reported today that Matthews is the best place in North Carolina to sell a home. Charlotte came in close behind at 3rd and Pineville came in at 7th. While this comes as no surprise to people already living in and around the Queen City, it is really nice to see it confirmed. The study by SmartAsset used four factors for their study: stability, affordability, fluidity and risk of loss with stability accounting for 40% of the results and the other three factors at 20% each.
Matthews Plantation is a beautiful wooded neighborhood in the Town of Matthews. It is an all brick community of 180 homes built by Trotter Builders. The homes are deed restricted so they operate under the bylaws and covenants of a homeowners association currently managed by Hawthorne Management Company. The management company helps facilitate a lake with fountain and fishing pier, picnic area, tennis courts, playground and neighborhood activities and events for all ages throughout the year.
Matthews Plantation is conveniently located off of Pleasant Plains Drive near the intersection with McKee Road. It is very convenient to I-485 and just a 30 minute drive to the airport with no traffic. You can also get to Uptown Charlotte in just under 30 minutes without traffic.
There are plenty of options for eating out that are just a quick drive away. Ballantyne Commons is just minutes away with shopping, restaurants and fitness options. Nearby is also Mecklenburg County Sportsplex.
Homes in Matthews Plantation have sold in the last year for between $228,800 and $327,500 with an average sold price of $273,829. Almost all of the homes sold at or above list price.
