Matthews · Higher-End and Waterfront
Selling a Higher-End Home in Matthews
A plan built around the property. The home is priced against homes with the same water access and finish, documented early, and launched for the likely buyer.
Selling a Higher-End Home in Matthews
Selling a higher-end home in Matthews most often means selling in Deerfield Creek, where roughly 200 full-brick or stone homes of about 2,800 to 5,500-plus square feet sit on third- to half-acre wooded lots, built from 1997 on by Hampshire Homes and John Wieland Homes. Two builders mean comparables need care: two homes of the same size may differ considerably in construction and finish.
Matthews is not on the water, so for waterfront sales we work in the Lake Norman towns.

How Carolina Signature Properties Sells These Homes
Carolina Signature Properties prices the home against the closest matches in construction, finish, lot and age, including comparable homes in Mint Hill such as those in Summerwood and Ellington Farm. Presentation shows the brick and stone, the wooded lot and the interior finish, with professional photography, a walkthrough video and drone photography, standard for waterfront homes, acreage and larger lots.
The launch includes a website for the home and paid Facebook and Instagram ads aimed at the buyers most likely to want it. Selling a higher-end or waterfront home covers the approach, and the launch explains how it runs.
What Upper-End Buyers Ask in Matthews
Buyers at this level ask about the age of the roof and systems in a home from the late 1990s or 2000s, what has been updated, school assignment within Charlotte-Mecklenburg Schools, and the drive via Providence Road and I-485. The pre-listing inspection consultation helps you answer those before they are asked. Talk with us about selling your Matthews home.

Matthews
What higher-end and waterfront looks like in Matthews
A small town that runs straight into Charlotte, with a downtown of its own and more shopping and restaurants close to home.
- The homes
- A small town that runs straight into Charlotte: driving between the two, you can hardly tell where one ends and the other begins. It sits between Charlotte and Indian Trail.
- Why people choose it
- Buyers who want what draws people to Mint Hill, an easy drive into Charlotte, but with more shopping and restaurants close to home.
- Schools people ask about
- Charlotte-Mecklenburg Schools, including Matthews, Crown Point and Elizabeth Lane elementaries and David W. Butler High. Assignment depends on the address.
- Getting around
- About 11 to 12 miles from uptown Charlotte. US 74 and I-485 serve Matthews, and NC 51 runs through town and connects with US 74.
- Nearby
- Downtown Matthews and its library branch; Matthews Alive, the Labor Day festival and parade; Novant Health Matthews Medical Center; the Four Mile Creek Greenway, the Matthews Heritage Trail, Purser-Hulsey Park and the Sportsplex.
- The trade-off
- The fair comparison is with Charlotte and Mint Hill, not Harrisburg. Next to Mint Hill there is very little difference, except that Matthews has more shopping and restaurants.
