I'm Jennifer Ledford with The Ledford Group at eXp Realty. South Charlotte and Ballantyne are markets I work in often. Here is what I found for Blakeney, what I could not confirm, and what I'd ask before you fall for a house.

What is Blakeney in Ballantyne?

Blakeney is a name people use for a broad part of Ballantyne, and it shows up in shopping center names and street names. The data I found was for Olde Blakeney, and it also pulls in addresses on Blakeney Heath Road. Other pieces of Blakeney may be different. Treat what follows as a picture of one slice, not the whole area.

What are the homes like?

A Palmetto Park Realty community page that draws on MLS data describes single-family, two-story homes with open main levels, first-floor owner's suites, studies, lofts, and garages. It lists a median year built of 2016, and the sold records I saw were built in 2015 and 2016.

Sizes run from about 3,076 to 5,422 square feet, with most around 3,500 to 4,200. The page shows an average of about 4.9 bedrooms and 3.8 bathrooms. Average lot size is about 0.29 acre. That is room for a patio, a fire pit, or a pool on some lots, but it is not the acreage you'd find in Marvin or Weddington.

What have homes in Blakeney sold for?

The sold list on that page covers 2015 through January 2026. Recent examples ran like this: $810,000 in September 2022, $875,000 in June 2023, $926,000 in March 2024, $1,100,000 in October 2024, $1,020,000 in June 2025, and $950,000 in January 2026. One home was pending at $999,000.

Early sales from 2015 to 2018 were around $485,000 to $682,000, so prices have climbed a long way. Price per square foot rose from roughly $130 to $155 in 2016 and 2017 to roughly $220 to $270 in 2024 through 2026.

A caution. The page shows only one sale in the past year, so its market stats rest on little data. It also lists different sold prices for the same address in its cards and its table. Use these numbers as a rough guide, and ask me for a Canopy MLS report for the street you like.

What is nearby?

Blakeney Center is the everyday shopping anchor, minutes from most homes. The Promenade at Waverly, the area's upscale outdoor shopping center with Pottery Barn and restaurants, is also close. Stonecrest has a Whole Foods and restaurants, and Postino Ballantyne is a popular wine bar and food spot. Life Time Fitness Ballantyne has a pool, spa, and classes, and the Ballantyne Dog Park is a busy weekend spot. For a walk or a bike ride, McMullen Creek Greenway is a paved trail that connects south Charlotte neighborhoods.

Which schools serve Blakeney?

Palmetto Park lists Hawk Ridge Elementary, Community House Middle, and Ardrey Kell High. That is one source. Charlotte-Mecklenburg Schools sets assignments and can change them, so check the exact address with the district before you count on any school.

How does Blakeney compare with other south Charlotte neighborhoods?

Blakeney homes are newer than much of Ballantyne, where older neighborhoods date from the 1990s and 2000s. Compare it with Berewick, Providence Country Club, and Providence Crossing on lot size, home age, and HOA costs. I wouldn't rank them. I'd match them to what you want in a house and a yard.

What should I do if I'm interested in Blakeney?

1. Ask for the HOA documents and current dues.

2. Confirm the school assignment for the exact address.

3. Have me pull recent sales on that street.
