Sedgefield is a growing neighborhood south of Uptown

Sedgefield is a growing neighborhood near Uptown Charlotte and the city’s entertainment corridors. The community is part of the Charlotte Rail Trail and has seen a steady influx of new restaurants and shopping destinations, primarily along South Boulevard. This growth has also led to the construction of new housing and multi-family units. This area maintains a suburban feel and offers numerous outdoor recreational spots, including the popular Freedom Park.

Newer inventory tends to cost more

The community features a variety of home architecture, including cottage and ranch styles, New Traditionals, modern farmhouse and modernist designs. Condos and townhomes are also available. “Existing homes [are] in the thousand to 1,400-square-foot range and new homes in the 4,000-square-foot range,” says Rob Bilbro, a broker with eXp Realty, who has over a decade of experience.

Prices for townhomes and condos range from $200,000 to over $500,000. Single-family home prices typically cost between $600,000 and $3.2 million. New inventory tends to cost more than $2 million. Sedgefield has been expanding its housing stock due to its proximity to Uptown and local entertainment districts. “The first neighborhood out of Uptown is Dilworth. People were priced out of Dilworth and they went to Sedgefield,” Bilbro says.

The area is also more expensive compared to other nearby locations, including Colonial Village and Wilmore. Homes are typically situated on gridded streets with larger-than-average lots and oak trees accentuating lawns. Newer developments and townhome communities often have less tree cover, and properties tend to have smaller lawns. Bilbro says homeowners’ associations are present.

I would definitely choose to live here again if I had it to do over. We are actually considering buying in the area. Charlotte has so much to offer in terms of entertainment, food, and culture, as well as sports - I see the area continuing to boom for many years.
