Callonwood
Resort-Style Pool Living Minutes from I-485 in Matthews
Callonwood is one of the larger, more established communities in the Matthews area, a mix of single-family homes, estate-style properties, and a separate townhome section built out mostly between the early 2000s and 2014 by MI Homes, Orleans Homes, and Westfield. Brick, stone, and craftsman-style elevations line walkable streets with mature trees, and the neighborhood's two-story clubhouse and resort-style pool, complete with a water slide and splash area, give it an amenity package that punches well above its price point.
The community sits along the Union-Mecklenburg county line, addressed as Matthews (and sometimes Stallings) in the 28104 zip code, with a back entrance off Stallings Road in addition to its Pleasant Plains Road frontage. Residents keep busy with a summer swim team, Bunco nights, book clubs, and neighborhood-wide events, and quick access to I-485 and Providence Road puts Downtown Matthews, Ballantyne, and the rest of south Charlotte within easy reach.
Details on the Area

Built out mostly between the early 2000s and 2014 by MI Homes, Orleans Homes, and Westfield, Callonwood mixes single-family homes, estate-style properties, and a separate townhome section, giving it more scale and home-style variety than most Matthews-area neighborhoods.
-
The two-story clubhouse anchors a resort-style pool complex complete with a water slide and splash area, plus a dog park, picnic areas, and playgrounds spread across the community's green spaces.
-
Callonwood carries a Matthews (and sometimes Stallings) mailing address in the 28104 zip code, but it actually sits in unincorporated Union County, which is why it's zoned for Union County Public Schools rather than Charlotte-Mecklenburg.

Beyond the pool, residents organize a competitive summer swim team, Bunco nights, book clubs, and neighborhood-wide events that keep Callonwood social well past Memorial Day.

Providence Road and I-485 are both close by, and Historic Downtown Matthews, with its Farmers' Market, Renfrow Hardware, and local restaurants, is about a 10-minute drive.

Schools In Callonwood
Here's a fact worth knowing before you tour a house here: Callonwood's Matthews mailing address is a little misleading, since the neighborhood actually sits in Union County. Here are the schools most commonly zoned for the community, factual and sourced, plus what to verify before you buy.
Indian Trail Elementary
Sun Valley Middle
Sun Valley High
Callonwood's Matthews mailing address is shared with neighborhoods zoned for Charlotte-Mecklenburg Schools, but Callonwood itself sits in Union County and is zoned for Union County Public Schools (UCPS), not CMS. Assignments are subject to change, so verify the zoned elementary, middle, and high school for your exact address through UCPS's Edulog assignment lookup (ucpsedulog.ucps.k12.nc.us) before you buy.
HOA & Community Amenities
Callonwood runs on an active, resident-focused HOA. The single-family section is managed by FirstService Residential, with dues that have run around $795 a year on recent listings, while the separate townhome section carries its own board and dues that have run closer to $196 a month. Either way, dues fund the community's two-story clubhouse, resort-style pool with a water slide and splash area, dog park, picnic areas, playgrounds, sports fields, sidewalks, street lights, and walking trails.
Life in Callonwood runs through its own calendar beyond pool season, with a competitive summer swim team, Bunco nights, book clubs, and neighborhood-wide events that keep residents connected. Because the single-family and townhome sections have separate management and fee schedules, confirm which section a specific address falls under, and its current dues, before making decisions.
Location & Lifestyle
Callonwood sits along the Union-Mecklenburg county line in the 28104 zip code, addressed as Matthews (and sometimes Stallings), NC, off Pleasant Plains Road with a back entrance from Stallings Road. Despite the Matthews mailing address, the neighborhood is physically in unincorporated Union County, which is why it's zoned for Union County Public Schools rather than Charlotte-Mecklenburg. Harris Teeter and Publix grocery stores sit about a mile away, Squirrel Lake Park and Atrium Health Union West are roughly two miles out, and Historic Downtown Matthews, with its shops, restaurants, and weekly farmers market, is about three miles away.
I-485 and Providence Road are both close by, giving residents an easy run into Charlotte's south side. Commutes run roughly 20 to 30 minutes into uptown Charlotte and about 30 to 35 minutes to Charlotte Douglas International Airport, with Ballantyne, Blakeney, and Waverly's shops and restaurants all a short drive away.
