Cameron Wood
Charlotte NC.
ZIP 28210: an established, family-oriented south Charlotte neighborhood sitting right beside Quail Hollow Club, where 1980s and 90s Colonial and Georgian Revival homes line winding, tree-shaded streets with a private swim and racquet club at the center of the community.
South Charlotte's family stronghold.
Cameron Wood is a large, established planned community on about 386 acres in south Charlotte, developed from the mid-1980s by UDC Homes on land once owned by the Belk family. It sits directly adjacent to Quail Hollow Club, the private course that has hosted PGA Tour events for years, and it is anchored by its own Swim & Racquet Club with two pools, tennis, and pickleball. What makes the neighborhood special is its consistency: mature, well-built 1980s and 90s single-family homes on winding, tree-shaded streets, a popular elementary and middle school inside the community, and a location that puts SouthPark, the Park Road corridor, and I-485 all within a few minutes. It is a classic south Charlotte family neighborhood that has held its value and its appeal for decades.

What you'll find.
Cameron Wood is almost entirely single-family, with the classic stock being 1980s and 90s Colonial and Georgian Revival homes on large, tree-shaded lots. Homes run from roughly 1,600 to 3,800 square feet with 3 to 6 bedrooms, and the neighborhood has essentially no attached housing, which keeps the streetscape consistent and family-focused.
Colonial & Georgian Revival Homes
The signature Cameron Wood stock: stately two-story brick and stone Colonials and Georgian Revivals built from the mid-1980s through the late 1990s on winding, tree-lined streets. Most offer formal living and dining rooms, hardwood or tile floors, and generous square footage from roughly 1,600 to 3,800 square feet, with 3 to 6 bedrooms on lots of about a quarter to over half an acre.
Updated & Move-In Ready Homes
Many original Cameron Wood homes have been thoughtfully renovated with modern kitchens, open family rooms, and finished primary suites, and these move-in-ready listings carry a premium. This is the sweet spot for buyers who want the established south Charlotte address without a renovation project.
Larger Estate & Newer Custom Homes
The most substantial Cameron Wood homes sit on the neighborhood's biggest lots, up to roughly 0.6 acres, with larger footprints and, in a few spots, newer construction from the 2000s and 2020s. These are the top addresses in the neighborhood, with premium finishes and mature landscaping.
Limited Attached Options
Cameron Wood itself is almost entirely single-family, with few condos or townhomes inside the neighborhood. Buyers seeking attached living can look to the surrounding Park Road and Pineville-Matthews corridors, which offer townhomes and condos at lower entry prices.
