Chatelaine
A Gated Estate Enclave on Twelve Mile Creek Road
Chatelaine is a small, gated enclave of custom estate homes tucked off Twelve Mile Creek Road in Waxhaw, NC, right along the Union County line with Weddington. Built out mostly between 2005 and 2017 by P&N Homes (Persis-Nova Custom Homes), its roughly 65 homes lean Old World European in style, stone and stucco exteriors, steep rooflines, and grand entries, set on generous wooded lots that back up to a neighborhood pond and a network of private walking trails.
It's a quiet, low-density pocket of south Union County, more about privacy and acreage than walkability to shops. Residents get a gatehouse entrance, mature hardwoods, and direct access to the same corridor of new-money subdivisions that lines Providence Road and Twelve Mile Creek Road, all within a 20 to 25 minute drive of Ballantyne and the rest of south Charlotte.

Schools In Chatelaine

Weddington Elementary
Weddington Middle
Weddington High
Chatelaine is a small subdivision inside a much larger Union County Public Schools attendance area, and boundaries can shift. Confirm zoned schools for your exact address through the Union County Public Schools assignment lookup (ucpsnc.org) before you buy; some nearby Waxhaw addresses are instead zoned for Marvin Ridge or Cuthbertson schools.
HOA & Community Amenities
Chatelaine is a single, self-contained HOA community. Annual dues have historically run around $1,750 per year (some individual listings have shown dues closer to $2,300 annually), covering the gated entrance, common-area landscaping, and upkeep of the neighborhood's ponds and private walking trails. As with any small, older HOA, exact dues and what they cover can shift year to year.
Because Chatelaine is such a small subdivision, its HOA runs more informally than the large master-planned communities nearby, no clubhouse or pool to maintain, just the gate, the common grounds, and the trails. Confirm current dues and covenants directly with the HOA or through a subdivision resale disclosure before making decisions.
