2019 Transitional 5BR Home — Large Yard & Main-Level Bedroom
You’ll appreciate the thoughtful layout the moment you step inside this Mattamy-built transitional home. At 3,289 square feet the floorplan delivers separation, flexibility and function: a formal/entry area flows into an open great room and a state-of-the-art kitchen anchored by a large island — perfect for weekday breakfasts and evening entertaining. A main-level bedroom with a full bath provides comfortable single-floor living for guests or multigenerational arrangements.
Upstairs the home expands into a generous loft plus four additional bedrooms. The primary suite features a tray ceiling, dual walk-in closets and a bathroom with separate shower and soaking tub — a comfortable retreat after a busy day. Practical touches include an upper-level laundry and an attic air-filtration system called out in the listing notes. The seller also confirms that the refrigerator and washer/dryer do not convey.
Outside, the property sits on approximately 0.20 acres and offers a large, inviting backyard ready for summertime gatherings, a playset, or a future deck and landscaping project. The yard gives life and scale to the home without the maintenance demands of larger acreage.
Location is a standout: positioned in the established Meridale Forest / Ballantyne trade area, you’re minutes to shopping, grocery stores, popular restaurants and quick access to I-485, making commutes and weekly errands straightforward. Recent construction quality, a family-forward floorplan and proximity to South Charlotte amenities make this a compelling option for buyers seeking move-in-ready space with long-term livability.
Schedule a showing to see why this one stands apart — generous rooms, a flexible upstairs loft, main-level sleeping, and a backyard that delivers exactly what suburban families are looking for.

A factual market snapshot around 7512 Meridale Forest Dr.
South Charlotte’s 28269 submarket continues to attract buyers seeking newer single-family homes within a short drive of Ballantyne and I-485. Inventory for family-sized, 4+ bedroom homes has been limited, which supports steady pricing and relatively quick sales when properties are well-presented. Median sale prices for comparable product in the immediate trade area sit near the low-to-mid $500k range; average days on market are relatively short (roughly 2–4 weeks) for competitively priced, turnkey homes. For sellers: strong local buyer demand and low inventory are supportive. For buyers: price defensibly placed at $530,000 with a modern floorplan and large yard — expect multiple showings and local interest. Verify final pricing against recent closed comps; if marketing aggressively, professional staging and targeted Ballantyne-area outreach typically accelerate sale and can help achieve the top of the price range.
