Deerfield Creek
Custom Brick Estates on Wooded Lots in Matthews
Deerfield Creek is one of Matthews' more upscale established neighborhoods, a custom-home community built mostly between 1998 and 2008 by John Wieland Homes and other custom builders on oversized wooded homesites off Providence Road. Large brick and stone Traditional and Transitional-style homes, most running from about 2,800 to over 5,500 square feet, line its tree-lined streets with deep foyers, two-to-three-car garages, and front porches that give the neighborhood real architectural weight.
The amenity package matches the home stock. A community pool with a shaded cabana, lighted tennis courts, a sport court, a playground, a soccer field, and a network of sidewalks and walking trails are all funded through the neighborhood's own homeowners association. Add in quick access to Waverly, Blakeney, and Matthews' own historic downtown, and Deerfield Creek reads as one of the area's more complete upscale packages without the drive time south Charlotte's busier corridors usually require.

HOA & Community Amenities
Deerfield Creek runs on a single, active homeowners association, with its own resident site at deerfieldcreek.org and dues collected through W.M. Douglas Community Management. Reported dues run roughly $1,150 to $1,400 a year depending on the source (the equivalent of about $95 to $120 a month), and cover the clubhouse, pool, and other common areas rather than individual lawn care.
What that funds is a genuinely resort-style package for a neighborhood this size: a community pool with a shaded cabana, lighted tennis courts, a sport court, a playground, a soccer field, and a network of sidewalks and walking trails connecting the neighborhood's sections. The HOA's social committee also organizes neighborhood events through the year. Confirm current dues and exactly what they cover before making decisions, since figures vary by source and can change.
