Why homebuyers are betting on Dixie-Berryhill

Known as Charlotte’s last rural frontier, Dixie-Berryhill is an evolving neighborhood between Charlotte Douglas International Airport and the Catawba River.

Turnkey new construction, good schools, and proximity to shops, restaurants and outdoor adventures are drawing homebuyers to this rapidly growing community. Highway access adds appeal for commuters.

Dixie‑Berryhill blends rural, waterfront living with convenient access to quality schools, shops, restaurants, and outdoor recreation.

A wide range of prices for single-family homes and condos

The median sale price in Dixie-Berryhill is around $480,000, above Charlotte ’s median and that of neighboring Steele Creek, Harbor House and Olde Whitehall. However, prices vary widely. Most homes cost between the mid-$200,000s and the mid-$700,000s, aside from the custom mansions along the Catawba River that start in the lower $800,000s and can exceed $2 million. “There are a lot of people who can’t buy within the 485 Loop,” says Vann Boger, a Realtor with the John Bolos Team at Keller Williams SouthPark. “They’re moving to the outskirts, which is more affordable for a lot of people.”


The neighborhood’s established subdivisions feature midcentury ranch-style homes and New Traditional designs on tree-dotted lawns, while its newest subdivisions boast brand-new Craftsman-inspired homes on narrow lots framed by sidewalks and driveways. There are also townhouses from the lower $300,000s to the upper $600,000s, as well as condos between the upper $300,000s and the mid-$500,000s.

A growing community still in development

Dixie-Berryhill is home to The River District, a massive master-planned community by Crescent Communities that’s transforming 1,200 acres of the neighborhood’s wooded, undeveloped land. “Dixie-Berryhill is still very natural at the moment. It has an away-from-it-all sort of feeling in most areas,” says Drew Choate, a Realtor with Keller Williams Connected. Construction began in 2023, and when it’s complete, it will feature around 4,600 new single-family homes and apartments grouped into various subdivisions, as well as an assisted living facility, hotels, retailers and a park along the Catawba River. “It’s a beautiful little neighborhood. It’s still being built out,” Boger says. “It’s going to have some great amenities inside there.”
