Just steps away from the posh commercial explosion in SouthPark is a wonderful neighborhood with mature trees and classic 1950s/60s homes. Barclay Downs is among the most affordable neighborhoods in the Myers Park school district and is greatly benefiting from the recent high-end, pedestrian-friendly development in SouthPark and Piedmont Row.

Take a stroll down Barclay Downs Drive, and when you roll through the Morrison Boulevard intersection, it’s as if you’re going 50 years back in time to a different era. On one side is modern, high-end retail, and on the other is classic midcentury charm! There is a swim club for the kids, tennis for the teens and you can walk to all the schools at the Myers Park Campus: Selwyn Elementary, AG Middle and Myers Park High.
