508 Hideaway Ridge Court, Matthews, NC

This custom-built residence in Matthews presents a rare architectural dialogue between the romance of an English country manor and the requirements of modern southern living. Constructed in 2005, the 4,160-square-foot home is defined by its commitment to enduring materials, featuring heart pine flooring, exposed timber beams, and a primary suite positioned thoughtfully on the main level. The five-bedroom, five-bathroom layout is anchored by a chef’s kitchen equipped with a Dacor gas cooktop and a custom copper vent hood, flowing into a vaulted keeping room centered on a stacked-stone fireplace. Serious collectors of real estate in this submarket will recognize that while new construction often prioritizes scale, this property emphasizes the vanishing art of millwork, evidenced by the coffered ceilings and intricate custom built-ins.
