Frequently Asked
Common Questions
Is the rear parcel really non-HOA?
+
Yes. Parcel #06156006R (0.784 acres) is a remainder parcel from the original pre-subdivision tract. It predates the Weddington Chase plat and was never absorbed into the HOA. Zoning authority rests with the Town of Marvin. Both parcels convey under a single deed (Book 8351, Page 858).
What are the property taxes on this compound?
+
Annual property tax is approximately $13,122 at the Town of Marvin tax rate of 0.648% applied to the $2,025,000 listing price. North Carolina has no estate tax and a flat 3.99% income tax rate (2026), creating substantial savings versus high-tax states like California, New York, and New Jersey.
Can the Heritage Cabin be used as an Airbnb or short-term rental?
+
The 150 sq ft Heritage Cabin sits on the non-HOA rear parcel (06156006R), which is governed by Town of Marvin zoning rather than the Weddington Chase HOA. There are no HOA covenant restrictions on short-term rental of the cabin. Local Town of Marvin regulations should be reviewed for current short-term rental requirements.
What schools serve 7810 Stonehaven Drive?
+
The property is zoned for Marvin Ridge High School, one of the top-rated public high schools in North Carolina. Marvin Elementary and Marvin Ridge Middle School complete the K-12 pathway. All three schools are within the Union County Public Schools system, consistently ranked in the top tier statewide.
What’s included in the $201,000-$337,000 in system renewals?
+
The fourteen renewed systems include: architectural roof (2025), HVAC & heat pump (2026), complete 37-window fenestration package (2026, West Shore Home GC #L.81059), grand entry door (2026), 6-inch seamless gutters (2026), crawlspace vapor barrier (2026), pool heater plus salt cell and LED lights (2026), plumbing and electrical remediation (2026), Wolf/Sub-Zero appliance servicing (2026), full landscaping overhaul and lighting (2026), interior and exterior touch-up paint (2026), and a completed pre-inspection with all findings resolved (2026). Full documentation is available in the Infrastructure Integrity Report.
When does the listing become officially active on MLS?
+
The Whitney Sanctuary is currently in Coming Soon status on MLS #4362179. Active status begins June 1, 2026, at which point the property becomes searchable on Zillow, Realtor.com, Redfin, and other syndication platforms with full showing availability.
Is this sold by owner or with a listing agent?
+
The Whitney Sanctuary is a principal-led sale conducted directly by the property owner via a flat-fee MLS listing through Chosen Realty of NC LLC. Buyer’s agents are welcome and standard commission terms apply. Direct inquiries from buyers are responded to by Alex Purdy at 704-989-9005 or alex@whitneysanctuary.com.
How far is the property from Charlotte and the airport?
+
Charlotte Douglas International Airport is approximately 35 minutes by car. Uptown Charlotte is approximately 30 minutes. I-485, the Charlotte outer loop, is approximately 10 minutes from the property, providing rapid access to the entire metro area.
What’s the difference between this property and standard Weddington Chase homes?
+
Standard Weddington Chase lots are 0.3 to 0.5 acres on a single platted lot under full HOA covenants. The Whitney Sanctuary conveys two parcels totaling 1.26 acres: the primary residence on its HOA lot, plus an adjacent 0.784-acre non-HOA remainder parcel zoned via Town of Marvin. This configuration is irreplaceable — no developer, adjacent owner, or HOA action can recreate it.
