Although one of the largest towns in the Lake Norman area,
the Huntersville real estate market still offers small town
charm that we all love. Incorporated in 1873, the fertile land
and a rail line promoted quick growth. In the downtown area,
you will still see how a main street has developed around a
railway station. In the town of Huntersville, you can feel like
you are living in a small town but enjoy the amenities of
shopping, luxury dining, and recreation.
Imagine ending your Friday afternoon after work and heading
just around the corner for a glass of wine on a patio to
listen to the best in Jazz music. Birkdale Village is an area that
offers the finest shopping, dining, and relaxing enchantment
in the North Charlotte area. You can park your car, grab a coffee
at Starbucks, walk around on wide sidewalks, read a bit of a
good book and enjoy an action packed movie. The open-air
Birkdale Village offers a Barnes & Noble, Gap, Talbots,
Banana Republic, Dick's Sporting Goods, movie theatre,
plus an assortment of fine and casual restaurants.
Another pocket of preserved Huntersville is the Latta Plantation
Nature Preserve, the county's largest green space with hiking
trails, picnic shelters, a nature center, an equestrian center,
boating and fishing on Mountain Island Lake and the
Carolina Raptor Center, which rehabilitates and releases
injured birds of prey. Huntersville also has a new family fitness
center with an outdoor fun park where kids can slide through
tubes, spray water cannons and climb sprinkler-filled jungle
gyms set inside a pool.
