Redfin released their predictions for the three hottest Charlotte neighborhoods for this year. They used data from page views and favorites from their website to determine which neighborhoods rose to the top. Myers Park, Eastover, and Ballantyne topped their list for many reasons and we can’t agree more.
Myers Park has long been a favorite due to it’s location, schools, and walkability. Winding streets with mature trees and landscaping make this suburb picturesque. Stately homes and charming parks are serviced by many shopping and dining establishments within walking distance. The award winning schools are nationally renowned. Myers Park is home to Queens University of Charlotte, a gorgeous campus with shaded quad and elegant buildings.
Homes in Myers Park typically range between $300,000 and $5 million with the average home price at almost $950,000. There is a range of style to the homes and many are historically preserved. Lot sizes tend to be larger than average, and landscaping is lush and established.
Eastover is right next to Myers Park so shares much of the style and many of the advantages of Myers Park. Lots tend to be larger with stately homes and tree lined streets. There is more seclusion in Eastover and a slightly less urban feel. The schools are still great and many are shared with Myers Park. Eastover is mostly residential, but there are many places to dine and shop nearby.
Homes in Eastover typically range between $385,000 and $5 million with the average home price at $1.2 million. There are many historical homes in Eastover in a range of styles from Tudor to Contemporary.
Ballantyne to the south of Charlotte is a booming commuting suburb that has become a destination all it’s own. It can feel like a separate city as it has everything you need without ever leaving. There is a PGA-ranked golf course, luxury spa and hotel, fortune-500 companies, country club and upscale housing.
Homes in Ballantyne typically start in the $400’s and can go as high as the multi-millions. Most homes were built in the last 20 years and encompass a variety of styles, but they include modern conveniences as well. There are many existing homes, but also many new construction homes.
