Matthews, NC

Area overview

Matthews is a town in southeast Mecklenburg County with its own historic downtown. Much of the housing dates from the 1960s to the 1990s: brick ranches and two-storey homes on larger lots with mature trees.

Buyers come here for yard space and single-level floor plans. Older homes can need updating, so we look hard at roofs, plumbing and crawl spaces during due diligence.

What makes Matthews special

  • Historic downtown

    Trade Street has restaurants, a hardware store and the Matthews Community Farmers' Market.

  • Parks

  • Established lots

    Many neighborhoods have no homeowners association and lots of a third of an acre or more.
