Location Characteristics: Location Characteristics: One of Charlotte's largest surburban neighborhoods consisting of approximately 1,500 homesites with the original lots being 1+ acre homesites. Construction began around 1970 and it is unique in that original buyers purchased a lot and chose a builder of their choice. Providence Plantation offers a wide diversity of homes and homesites (.2 to 3.5 Acres). Home prices vary between $200,000 - $2,000,000. Many of the older homes are being renovated and, because of the high value of the property, homeowners do not have to worry about overpricing their neighborhood. Downtown Charlotte is approximately a 30-minute drive. Everything is conveniently located for shopping, schools, the Sisky YMCA, churches, roads, etc.
Providence Plantation is a beautiful, one of a kind neighborhood. The original Providence Road entrance winds for approximately 1/4 mile through a serene forest canopy. The character of the neighbor was established from the beginning with the philosophy that "We would rather have a 'little jewel' than a 'big monstrosity'." Thus, there is a wide variation of home styles, square footages, quality of construction, and lot sizes.
