Welcome to Waxhaw

Waxhaw is a beloved historic town in Union County that pairs a walkable, antique-lined downtown with beautiful countryside. Just south of Charlotte, it offers a genuine small-town lifestyle, with local festivals, farmers markets, boutique shops, and popular restaurants, plus the space and charm that draw people out of the city. Homes range from historic houses near downtown to newer neighborhoods, custom estates, and larger acreage properties. Residents love the community events and the balance of rural beauty with easy access to Ballantyne and Charlotte's job centers, and the town sits within the Union County Public Schools district. Waxhaw has grown quickly as buyers discover its character and value, yet it keeps its welcoming, hometown feel. If you want small-town warmth and room to spread out within reach of the city, Waxhaw is one of the Charlotte area's most charming choices.
