Around the Block
Welcome to waxhaw
About a 40-minute drive from Uptown, it’s quiet, small-town living with big-city upside. Welcome to Waxhaw, y’all
Known as an up-and-coming Charlotte suburb, Waxhaw has nearly doubled in size since 2010, making way for budding families seeking to stay connected to the QC without having to compromise on size, space, and county taxes.
What to expect:
Small-town charm and a strong sense of community
When you hit Main Street in Downtown Waxhaw, you’re greeted by historic buildings offering that southern charm, and you can’t help but feel all the warm and fuzzies. It’s the same feeling you get watching an older Steven Speilberg film - the delight, nostalgia, and neighborhood familiarity. You’ll know your neighbors, you’ll be greeted with a smile, and you’ll feel right at home.
The lifestyle:
Quiet neighborhoods, budding families, and a rising dining/drinks scene.
It's weekend soccer games, cul-de-sacs filled with tag, and neighborhood night spots. Waxhaw welcomes all, but it’s particularly carved out a niche for growing families seeking a strong foundation with more room to roam. After a long day running errands, hit the happening spots in town like 701 Main, Maxwell’s Tavern, Waxhaw Taphouse, and Emmets Social Table.
Unexpected appeal:
Quaint countrysides and commutes.
Although Waxhaw is fast-developing like many Charlotte suburbs, you’ll seek solace in the haul home where you’ll still find plenty of countryside offering scenic sunsets. The commute may be a little longer, but the quiet car ride is welcomed after a busy day in Buzz City.
The market:
New construction homes with large yards, pools, and more - mixed with newer resale and handsome brick estates.
Like many neighboring suburbs along the South Carolina border, you’ll find friendlier tax rates, more space, more features, and more bang-for-your-buck in Waxhaw. Whether you’re looking for a million-dollar brick estate - or something much smaller - you’ll find a healthy mix in the growing Union County town.
You'll fall in love with:
The seasonal town events.
When we say you’ll know your neighbors, we aren’t joking. From the Holiday Festival of Lights, to Jammin' by the Tracks, a free summer concert series, you’ve got family fun year-round.
