Enclave at Carrington

An Intimate Custom-Built Corner of South Charlotte

Enclave at Carrington is one of south Charlotte's smallest and most exclusive addresses, an intimate enclave of just 11 custom homesites built by Classica Homes on Cary Ridge Drive, reached off Rea Road via Bevington Place. It sits directly next to the established Piper Glen golf community in the 28277 zip code, giving new-construction buyers a rare shot at a from-scratch custom home inside one of Charlotte's most mature and sought-after corridors.

Classica offers eight distinct floor plans here, from the 2,900 square foot Santa Fe Ranch to the 4,600-plus square foot Napa, so homes range widely in size and price while sharing the same small-lot, low-density feel. It's a quiet, tucked-away pocket of streets, but StoneCrest at Piper Glen's shops and restaurants, Ballantyne, and SouthPark are all just minutes away, and the McMullen Creek greenway and Big Rock Nature Preserve give the area some genuine green space to explore on foot.

Enclave at Carrington is a brand-new, 11-home community without its own assignment history, so these are the commonly zoned schools for this stretch of Rea Road near Piper Glen and Ardrey. CMS boundaries have shifted with new schools nearby (Ballantyne Ridge High opened 2024); confirm assignments for 5915 Cary Ridge Dr and neighboring addresses through the CMS assignment lookup (assignment.cms.k12.nc.us) before you buy.

HOA & Community Amenities

Enclave at Carrington runs on a small homeowners association covering just its 11 homesites. A recent listing showed dues of about $1,040 paid semi-annually (roughly $175 a month), which is typical for a community this size, covering entrance signage and common-area landscaping rather than a clubhouse, pool, or fitness center.

There's no shared amenity center here, in keeping with the community's boutique scale, so residents lean on what's already nearby: StoneCrest at Piper Glen's shops and restaurants a short drive away, and the McMullen Creek greenway for walking and biking. Confirm current dues and any builder-specific assessments before making decisions.

 

Location & Lifestyle

Enclave at Carrington sits off Rea Road via Bevington Place in the 28277 zip code, directly bordering the established Piper Glen golf community in south Charlotte.

Ballantyne's shops and offices and SouthPark's mall and dining are both roughly 10 to 15 minutes away, Uptown Charlotte runs about 20 to 25 minutes depending on traffic, and Charlotte Douglas International Airport is about 25 to 30 minutes out via I-485 and Rea Road.
