And almost none in the area you are house hunting.
If want to get a feel for the place where you are actually house hunting at, shopping is all up and down Independence Blvd aka US 74. Some great parks out there as well such as Colonial Francis Beatty, Squirrel Lake Park (has greenways there as well), downtown Matthews is nice as well. There's a playhouse in Matthews as well as libraries (the one in Indian Trail is really nice for the kids)
The other suggestions here are excellent for sightseeing in Charlotte. I will also offer Imaginon. It's excellent for kids to run around in and explore. We go there often and it's in uptown. (this is uptown Charlotte)
