Weddington vs. Marvin: Luxury Union County Comparison
Luxury buyers often compare Weddington and Marvin because both sit in Union County’s premium positioning. The right way to choose isn’t by reputation—it’s by property-level trade-offs you can verify: inventory type, lot profile, HOA documents (if any), and total cost planning.
Both are roughly 25–35 minutes to Uptown Charlotte and 15–25 minutes to Ballantyne in typical traffic; routes vary by neighborhood. Each is served by UCPS: Weddington feeds Weddington High, Marvin feeds Marvin Ridge High—verify assignment by address via UCPS Edulog or Infinite Campus. Lot sizes skew 0.5+ acre in Weddington and often 1–5+ acres in Marvin; HOA prevalence differs by subdivision, with more non‑HOA and estate-style options in Marvin.
Luxury decisions are won on details: documentation, due diligence, and apples-to-apples comparisons.
