Another hidden gem of an established neighborhood is SouthPark’s Woodbridge tucked away between Carmel and Providence roads adjacent to Charlotte Country Day.
The neighborhood, built in the 1970s, is in an ideal location that is convenient to most areas of town and is full of mature trees lining its quiet roads.
From Woodbridge, Providence Road leads into Uptown in about 20 minutes. To the south, Providence Road brings you right to Highway 51 and the Arboretum for shopping and dining or further south toward Ballantyne.
This 1.5-story renovated 1973 home in Woodbridge sold for $450,000 last year.
Some of the best shopping and dining in the city is less than 3 miles away in and around the SouthPark Mall and Phillips Place. Strawberry Hill is nearby for shopping at Fresh Market or grabbing a bite to eat at Aqua e Vino.
For recreation, there are numerous parks within 10 minutes of Woodbridge, such as Marion Diehl Park, James Boyce Park and Carmel Road Neighborhood Park. The nearby Levine Jewish Community Center also offers lots of nondenominational activities.
In addition, golf lovers will appreciate several championship courses within 15 minutes of home! For tennis players, Old Providence Racquet Club is less than 5 minutes away.
Woodbridge’s homes have such character and each is uniquely individual. Many of the homes have been completely renovated, though there are still diamonds in the rough and homes that need a little bit of TLC.
Homes in Woodbridge range from the $200,000s to the $500,000s. Square footage is typically from 2,000 square feet to mid-3,000s. There are more traditional homes as well as some with contemporary flair and even gambrel roofs.
There are currently 6 homes on the market in Woodbridge and 3 under contract as of April 6.
A total of 18 homes sold during the last 12 months for an average of 1.5 homes sold per month. That puts current inventory at about 4 months, which is equal to current Charlotte and Mecklenburg County inventory levels.
The average sale price for a Woodbridge home is $381,017 and about $160 per square foot.
Homes sales averaged 99% of list price, with many selling at or above list price.
The neighborhood is zoned for Sharon Elementary School, Carmel Middle School and Myers Park High School. In addition, Charlotte Christian and Charlotte Country Day.
Woodbridge is a wonderful place to consider if you like the feel of a mature neighborhood with well-maintained homes and proximity to the city’s best amenities.
