Privacy on this scale is rare in The Reserve. The home sits well back from King George Lane on 1.45 wooded acres, an open lawn rising from the street while mature hardwoods close in behind and hold the back of the property — quiet you can feel the moment you step out of the car. One owner has kept it since it was built in 2006, and it shows in the details: crepe myrtles along the drive, a brick front, and a side-load garage. A gas-log fireplace anchors the great room, and the kitchen opens to a wide breakfast room so the cook is never separate from the conversation. That breakfast room is flexible, often used as a sitting or craft area. A study, a formal dining room, and a flex room that's often used as a bedroom — it sits right next to the main-level full bath — fill out the rest of the main level, along with the laundry. Upstairs, the primary suite is a true retreat — its own gas-log fireplace, a walk-in closet, and a beautifully renovated bath. Four more rooms open off a wide hall, including one large enough to serve as a bonus room, media room, or fifth bedroom. The screened porch carries a vaulted beadboard ceiling, paddle fans, and a stone-faced fireplace, with private, tree-lined views. From there a composite deck with a retractable awning steps down to a stamped-concrete patio with easy room for the grill and a long table, and a seating area tucked at the wood line makes an evening of its own around a fire pit. The Reserve is a well-established Union County neighborhood off Crane Road at New Town Road, with a clubhouse, community pool, playground, and pond. Enjoy top-rated Marvin Ridge schools. Blakeney, Ballantyne, Waverly, and Rea Farms are all nearby for groceries, shopping, and dining, or head into historic downtown Waxhaw, where Main Street's brewery, pubs, coffee shops, and storefronts line the railroad. It's conveniently located near Providence Road, Rea Road, and Johnston Road, so all of south Charlotte stays within reach.
