Barclay Downs:As one of Charlottes most sought-after neighborhoods, Barclay Downs boasts an excellent location, on the Myers Park side of SouthPark.

Foxcroft:These are some of Charlottes most beautiful homes, and their location is only one favorable attribute of many.

Homes range between $550,000 and $1.5 million, with most homes coming in at more than 3,000 square feet.
