Waxhaw
Historic Waxhaw, a rail junction about 30 miles due south of Uptown Charlotte, is known as the “Land of the Waxhaw’s” an Indian tribe that made this part of the Carolinas home in the 1600’s. An early Revolutionary War battle (loss) was fought here and made immortal in the movie The Patriot... one of the early battles with Colonials running everywhere.
Today, it is horse country. Large Horse farms are side by side with working farms as the Charlotte suburbs push further out from Charlotte. From Charlotte, just take Providence Road south, and 16 miles past 485 you will be in downtown Waxhaw.
Commutes have improved considerably with the addition of Rea Road, making the Marvin side even more attractive.
I hope you enjoy the posts below, at any time you want to search for Waxhaw homes, just Search Charlotte Homes and place Waxhaw in the city field. If the question is more urgent, try me by phone- I almost always answer at 704-351-1519.
