Bright Modern 3-Bed Home with Large Yard in Canyon Hills
What stands out first at 5330 Upton Place is how efficiently the floor plan uses its 1,800 square feet: a modern, two-story layout built in 2021 that feels larger than its footprint. The main level opens to an easy-living common area where vinyl plank flooring runs throughout and anchors a streamlined kitchen finished with stainless steel appliances and granite countertops. The kitchen’s sightlines to the living area make weekday mornings and casual entertaining effortless.
Upstairs, three bedrooms and two full baths plus a powder room downstairs give practical separation between family and guest spaces. The primary suite is sized for a king and includes a private bath. Throughout the home you’ll find contemporary fixtures and finishes consistent with newer construction—low-maintenance materials and thoughtful details that reduce upkeep and keep the interior feeling fresh.
The property sits on a roughly 0.2-acre, level lot with a two-car attached garage and a backyard large enough for play, a garden, or a future patio. The Reserve at Canyon Hills community emphasizes family-friendly amenities—there’s a playground and dog park within the neighborhood—which complements the private outdoor space at this address.
Location is a strong practical advantage here: Reedy Creek Park is about 1.5 miles away for weekend outings, Hickory Grove Market is within 2 miles for groceries and errands, and University City is roughly 5 miles for expanded shopping and dining options. The home was purchased new in 2021 for $269,900 and has appreciated steadily; recent neighborhood comps and the current assessed value place market value in the $350K–$380K range. With a 2.5-month inventory in the area and average days on market near 30, this property represents a turnkey option for buyers seeking a modern, low-maintenance home in a growing Charlotte neighborhood.

A factual market snapshot around 5330 Upton Pl.
Local market indicators for The Reserve at Canyon Hills point to a balanced-to-slightly seller-favored environment. Inventory sits at about 2.5 months — near the threshold many analysts use to identify a seller’s market — while the area’s average days on market is roughly 30 days, indicating transaction velocity remains healthy. Median sale price in the micro-market is about $360,000 with 1-year appreciation on the order of 5% and five-year appreciation near 25%, reflecting steady demand and measured price growth. Single-family homes of this size and vintage (2020–2022 construction) move quickly relative to older product because buyers favor low-maintenance finishes and recent systems. For buyers, limited local inventory increases competition but also preserves longer-term value upside; for sellers, pricing competitively against recent comps (sales between $350K–$380K) is likely to generate strong interest. Rental demand is solid as well—estimated monthly rent ~ $2,100—so investors can expect reasonable gross yields around 6–7% before expenses. Overall, this is a market where well-priced, move-in-ready homes generate reliable buyer attention.
