CHARLOTTE REAL ESTATE You don’t have to travel all the way to Charleston, SC to find tucked away quaint, modern neighborhoods surrounded by rich history when you have the Charlestown subdivision right in the Charlotte metro area.  This amenity abundant townhome community brings modern touches to the historic town of Monroe, which dates back to 1842.  Charlestown is approximately 6 miles from Hwy I-485 making commuting around the Charlotte Metro that much easier. However, it doesn’t have to rely on Charlotte to hold its own.  Homeowners in this neighborhood enjoy many activities in downtown Monroe. Each month during the summer, for example, residents enjoy entertainment such as movies and outdoor concerts on Main Street. It’s a popular pastime among families, friends, and neighbors after work.  Additionally, there is also the Monroe Aquatics and Fitness Center, the Monroe Country Club that is a true value as well as open to the public, and local festivals to name a few. The city of Monroe even has its own regional airport.

What’s in store for Monroe in the near future? There is an extensive master plan for this Charlotte suburb that may be viewed at the City of Monroe website (www.cityofmonroe.org).  Plans such as this are positioned to add value to the area.  Residents moving into Charlestown today may be already ahead of the curve.  Luxury townhomes that would cost well over $250,000 elsewhere in Charlotte proper sell for $150,000 in Charlestown on average today. That’s a tremendous savings to Charlotte townhomes of comparable size.  Additionally, the taxes are lower in Monroe.  First time homebuyers are taking advantage of today’s market in particular, with Charlestown homes offering much more for the money.  Both True Homes and former builder Crafts Homes feature their products, although only True Homes actively builds in the community at this time.  What can be seen of the Crafts product however is elegant in nature. These virtually new homes come with granite countertops or corian, garden tubs, walk-in closets, offer chair rails and wainscoting, extensive moulding, attached garages and more for a tremendous value.
