About the Project

Owner Mark Hernig dedicated six years to restoring and repurposing the Waxhaw Livery Stable, which was built in 1932. The building was boarded up, close to demolition, when Hernig purchased it in 2015. His project turned the building into a vibrant commercial space that now houses the Mule Barn Mercantile, a shop featuring locally made food, art and antiques. The restored stable tells the story of Waxhaw’s rural and equestrian history and supports the historic downtown’s economic revitalization.
