CHARLOTTE, N.C. (QUEEN CITY NEWS) — The real estate market in 2023 was far quieter than the previous few years. Higher interest rates slowed down the number of sales, but there were still plenty of high-end properties around Charlotte and western North Carolina.

Asheville saw the region’s most expensive home closed on this year at $9.6 million, but the Lake Norman area had six of the top 10. The 9,500-square-foot Tudor is right off the Blue Ridge Parkway and a just a few miles from the Biltmore Estate.

The largest home on the list is a prominent lakefront house in Cornelius, coming in just north of 12,000 square feet.

These 10 cities saw the biggest changes in home buying power in 2023
