Newly renovated homes and proximity to the SouthPark area
Due to its location, Sharon Woods is becoming an increasingly well-known section of Charlotte’s SouthPark area. Homebuyers have asked for this neighborhood by name, says Heather Montgomery, broker-in-charge at Cottingham Chalk and a Sharon Woods resident since 2015. “You feel tucked away in the tree-lined streets with the large oaks, but if you step outside the neighborhood, you have all the amenities,” she says. "We’re within walking distance to SouthPark Mall, Whole Foods and Starbucks.” The neighborhood is well-established, and rather than moving to newer homes, residents are choosing to update their current houses. “I’d say we’ve well exceeded 50% of the neighborhood being fully renovated,” Montgomery says. “It’s now one of those neighborhoods where when people move in, they do tend to stay.”

Colonial Revivals built in the 1960s and 70s
The Sharon Woods community is a subdivision that comprises approximately 200 single-family homes built in the 1960s and ‘70s. Its housing styles are a mix of Colonial Revivals, Transitional and ranch-style houses. “The homes were built by Waters Builders,” Montgomery says, referring to the Charlotte-based custom home constructors. "A lot of them have basements, so they average over 4,000 square feet.” The larger area surrounding Sharon Woods is made up of smaller subdivisions that include condos and townhouses. "Right now, the inventory is tight,” says Lilac Realty broker/owner Julie Wall-Burris, a resident of SouthPark who has been representing buyers and sellers in the area since 2006. “Charlotte is one of the fastest growing communities in the country with 100 homes being sold each day." Single-family homes under 3,000 square feet range from $605,000 to $1.2 million. For larger homes between 3,000 and over 5,000 square feet, the price is $902,000 to $1.7 million. Townhouses are $331,000 to $365,000, while condos start at $180,000 and go as high as $430,000.

Shopping at SouthPark Mall
SouthPark Mall is anchored by Nordstrom, Macy's, Belk and Dillard's. Beyond mall eateries, The SouthPark area has dining options, like JINYA Ramen Bar and Tap and Vine Quail Hollow, which serves lobster ravioli and bourbon brown sugar glazed salmon. “Because of Johnson and Wales, a culinary institute, being in Charlotte, we have a lot of restauranteurs that stay in the area,” Montgomery says. “So local restaurants are a big thing here, but the mall brings your Cheesecake Factory and big anchor stores. But where there used to be an anchor store is now a local luxury grocery market called Reid's for Fine Foods.” The shop has a butcher and a restaurant. Residents can also do their grocery shopping at either Harris Teeter or Whole Foods.

I've grown up here my whole life so I'm ready to move on but it's not a bad place to live. The one thing I would say is getting worse is the school systems. I believe some of the new teaching programs they have initiated are not helpful and confusing to students. I also believe the way the IB programs at schools are mixed in with the average students is an unfair way of comparing students.
