Charlotte Country Clubs Ballantyne And Piper Glen Homes And Lifestyle

By Claude Cross

Charlotte, NC enjoys their perfect blue skies along with the sport of golf. Here, were aiming to check out two of Charlottes top notch country clubs. They’re found within a ten minute drive of each other. The country clubs we’re going to explore are The Ballantyne Country Club, and The Piper Glen Country Club. Well start out with The Piper Glen Country Club.

Youll discover quite a few stunning homes inside Piper Glen Country Club. Wonderful luxurious custom homes will be sculpted into the communitys rolling terrain; this is home to the TPC at Piper Glen. The breathtaking 35,000 square ft clubhouse rests high upon one of the hillsides looking over the course and lakes. The club house offers casual and fine dining rooms, in addition to banquet and private conference rooms. Moreover, it has a leading Golf Shop with full service locker rooms and club storage on site. Piper Glen also features eight lighted clay tennis courts, and a Junior Olympic sized swimming pool.

The estates in Piper Glen come with a typical living space of between 4500-6500 sq ft and an average price tag of $1.5 Million. The complete range of homes is quite a bit different with the living area of between 3000 and 9000 sq ft and prices going up to just under $4 Million.

If this is too much space for you, but you want the lifestyle presented here, take a look at these enclave communities to be found inside Piper Glen:

The Ninth at Piper Glen provides three level townhouses loaded with style, several looking over the greens and the clubhouse. These townhouses have a typical living space of between 2000-2400 square feet and prices which will be around $300K.

It offers a bevy of gorgeous luxury real estate, but does not have the enclave communities within its borders. Nearby, you can find a nice selection of communities that would serve other housing styles.

Various other perks consist of a cutting edge health and fitness center (accessible around the clock) durability and weight training classes, a young adult room, a movie cinema and a children’s corner.

During the summer time, you will find a series of themed camps for kids 5-10 years old; micro camps designed for 3-5 year olds and counselor in training opportunities for teens.

Ballantyne Country Club was established in 1996 and has a Rees Jones design. The golf course is ideal for all skill-sets and provides five different tee boxes, beginning with the gold tees at 7034 yards and working its way to the family tees at 2380 yards.
