Greenville is a good neighborhood to work, play, and live in Charlotte, NC.
Charlotte neighborhood with mix of homes and nightlife
Located right on the edge of Uptown Charlotte, the neighborhood of Greenville features a diverse scene. The upper part is largely made up of residential blocks occupied by humble single-story homes, while its southern end houses some of the city’s most renown live entertainment and event venues. All based at the AvidXChange Music Factory complex, these spaces have hosted a large variety of activities ranging from live music acts — with even some of the industry’s big names making visits — comedy shows and dancing troupes to game nights and dining. And although it’s not exactly within the neighborhood bounds, Greenville is but a short distance from Camp North End. The 76-acre repurposed industrial site houses a large mix of uses that include dining, art studios and office spaces for companies in a variety of sectors. “It’s a fantastic hangout. They have a long list of rotating attractions,” says Kristin Tapoozian, a Realtor with The Redbud Group. But although many might know this part of the city for the entertainment and nightlife, it still has a strong community feel. The older residents often go to the Ivory/Baker Recreation Center just north of the neighborhood to take part in senior dances and bridge nights, while teens flock to the facility for the open court times. “It’s really accessible to Uptown and a lot of the other social districts in the area. That’s really huge for them,” says Anthony Bucson, a senior rec specialist at the Ivory/Baker center, about the area’s appeal.
Festivities at the Music Factory
The complex of live performance spaces located right along North Carolina Music Factory Boulevard is this community’s main attraction. From dimly-lit and intimate spaces to the more extravagant Fillmore Charlotte with its bright stage lights and chandeliers, these venues have been stopping points for performers like Lil Yachty and Young the Giant. The AvidXchange Music Factory Festival Grounds hosts the annual Moo, Brew & ‘Que Music Fest, billed as one of the city’s most anticipated events. As its name suggests, goers over a three-day period can enjoy wide selections of barbecue, burgers and beer, all while being treated to a lineup of live music.

Close to green spaces and Ivory/Baker Recreation Center
Greenville residents are close to several parks, green spaces and recreational facilities. The amenities within the park that shares the neighborhood’s namesake include 16 acres of green spaces, a playground and a basketball court, all set against the backdrop of the Uptown Charlotte skyline rising above the natural canopy of mature trees. Another recreational spot bisected by a creek is the Anita Stroud Park just north of Greenville on Woodward Avenue. Children and teens can take to the playground and basketball court there, while adults can stroll by the scenic pond with a fountain at the center. And just south of the park is the Ivory/Baker Recreation Center. Children and teens can come to the facility for open gym times on select days during the week and partake in game nights on Fridays. There are even specialized events for elderly residents, including senior bridge a few times a week, senior dances on Fridays and pickleball.

Ranch-style, bungalows and some new projects
Much of the residential streets are lined with trees that form natural canopies over certain areas. Many Ranch-style houses and some Craftsmen and bungalows can be found on these blocks. While there hasn’t been a great deal of turnover here, price points for the homes that have been recently available can go from the upper $200,000s to the lower $400,000s, with update work playing a factor. There are also some new townhouses coming up that can go from around $540,000 to nearly $660,000, depending on overall size.
