A historic corridor defines this up-and-coming neighborhood
A major artery that connects some of the city’s oldest historically Black neighborhoods, Beatties Ford Road has long been considered the main corridor of Charlotte’s West End. The wider area fell behind economically in the 1970s when highway construction cut it off from the rest of the city. But now, the Beatties Ford-Trinity neighborhood is making a comeback. With more funding from the city being put towards walkability and bike-ability improvements, new homes are also starting to pop up left and right. “There’s major growth, both with the transit system and the businesses that are relocating to the area,” says Jim Hall, a broker with Talley Properties.

A mix of home styles new and old
Beyond major thoroughfares like Beatties Ford Road, the residential streets are wide and flat. Homes sit on large lawns backed by dense clusters of trees and bordered by rows of hedges. Residential development began here around the mid-20th century and has continued steadily onward ever since, from 1960s brick ranch-style homes to ‘90s New Traditional two-story houses. While these established homes can start in the $200,000 range, new constructions are becoming increasingly common in the area. A spacious Craftsman house on a nearly one-acre lot can sell for over $500,000, and brand-new three-bedroom townhouses regularly list for around $325,000. “In this area, If I were to list a house right now, we’d have several offers and be under contract in less than 30 days. The inventory right now is very limited,” reports Hall.

Paying homage to the area’s Revolutionary War history
While some of the first homes in Beatties Ford-Trinity were sold in the 1960s, its history actually spans back much earlier. This area’s roots can be traced back to the McIntyre Historic Site, where a Revolutionary War skirmish occurred during the British occupation of Charlotte in 1780. The story goes that nearly 400 Redcoat soldiers foraging at McIntyre’s farm stumbled into a beehive and, amid the chaos, were routed by a group of less than 15 Patriots, earning the encounter the name “the Battle of the Bees.” As the British retreated from Charlotte, they called the city a “hornet’s nest” of rebellion. That strong, defiant spirit has become a point of pride for area residents, so much so that Hornets Nest Elementary and Hornets Nest Park were named after it.

A local park houses an obstacle course and BMX tracks
Trinity Road feeds right into Hornets Nest Park, where residents can play a round on the disc golf course or hike along the winding waterside trails. McIntire Creek meanders through Hornets Nests’ wooded terrain and feeds into the lake at the park’s center, a community favorite for fishing. Adrenaline junkies hit the dirt BMX tracks to get their fill of thrill rides, while there’s plenty of family-friendly recreation on the playground and Carolina Panthers Play 60 Challenge Course. Blending NFL-style training and an American Ninja Warrior-esque obstacle course, parkgoers of every age can test their mettle and set a new personal record at tackling creative hurdles and a 40-yard dash. The park’s myriad sporting facilities are supplemented by the nearby Sunset Hills Public Golf Course, where golfers can practice their swing with a quick and affordably priced round on the 40-acre wooded tract.
Hornet's Nest Park is home to one of the most popular disc golf courses in Charlotte.
