This inviting brick ranch in Sardis Forest offers updated interiors, plenty of outdoor living space, and a separate studio—all on a beautiful wooded .47-acre corner lot. The 3-bedroom, 2-bath home features 1,693 square feet with separate living and dining rooms and a comfortable family room with a wood-burning brick fireplace. Open to the family room, the refreshed kitchen includes white cabinetry, stainless appliances, a subway tile backsplash, a butcher block island, and new flooring. Nicely refurbished bathrooms, new carpet in the bedrooms, and a spacious mudroom/laundry with built-in cubbies round out the interior. The large screened porch and adjoining deck with a built-in hot tub extend the living space outdoors, with room for dining, gathering, or simply enjoying the wooded setting. The fully fenced backyard includes a detached 246-square-foot studio—ideal for a home office, exercise room, or art studio—plus a separate storage shed. Major updates include the roof in 2019, HVAC in 2022, and tankless water heater in 2023. Enjoy an established neighborhood setting with convenient access to downtown Matthews, shopping, dining, and nearby McAlpine Creek Greenway.
Sardis Woods, located between Providence Road and Sardis Road, is a residential and wooded Charlotte neighborhood with curving streets and mid-century ranch homes. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Sardis Road North and Fairview Road corridor, where low-slung shopping plazas, coffee counters, and local eateries set a steady, everyday rhythm. Community pillars include The Loyalist Market, Pasta & Provisions, and the independent screens at Regal Phillips Place. Sidewalk-light blocks and mature tree canopy shape a quiet, tucked-away feel. Nearby green space and creekside corridors add a nature-forward backdrop. Architecture leans brick, carports, and generous lots, with a calm, established streetscape.
