About this home

Distinctive by design, this residence offers a rare approach to duet living, thoughtfully configured to maximize privacy and separation. With approximately three-quarters of the home unattached from the neighboring residence, it offers the space, privacy, and unmistakable feel of single-family living. Located in Charlotte's historic Fourth Ward, this architecturally distinctive residence blends timeless character, sophisticated design, and the convenience of premier Uptown living. Filled with natural light from expansive windows and soaring interior spaces, the home offers an inviting atmosphere that feels both grand and comfortable. Designed for effortless entertaining and everyday living, the spacious main living and dining areas flow seamlessly together while showcasing the home's unique architectural details. Just off the main living space, a private office/library creates the perfect retreat for reading, working from home, or quiet reflection. At the heart of the home, the thoughtfully designed kitchen offers abundant cabinetry, generous workspace, and ideal connectivity to surrounding gathering areas—perfect for both intimate evenings and large-scale entertaining. The expansive lower level is an entertainer's dream, complete with a built-in bar and flexible recreation space ideal for hosting guests, movie nights, game days, or additional lounge and media areas. The spacious design extends naturally to a private courtyard, offering a seamless connection between indoor comfort and outdoor living that is ideal for entertaining or quiet relaxation. The primary suite serves as a true private retreat, featuring an expansive sitting area with a cozy gas log fireplace, a spacious dressing area, and a personal sauna that creates a spa-like experience within the comfort of home. Outdoor living is equally exceptional, with an expansive front porch, two upper level balconies, a side deck, and private rear courtyard creating multiple inviting spaces for entertaining, dining, and relaxation. Gas log fireplaces are located in the living room and the sitting area off the primary bedroom, with a wood-burning fireplace in the lower-level recreational area. Beyond the courtyard, the grounds are anchored by an in-town tennis court on an adjoining parcel, co-owned in equal shares with 517 N. Poplar—a rare amenity seldom found in the heart of Charlotte. Buyer's agents should contact the listing agent for details on ownership terms. Positioned moments from Fourth Ward Park, Uptown dining, entertainment, cultural venues, and Charlotte's major business districts, this residence offers unmatched accessibility while preserving the charm and character of one of the city's most established neighborhoods. An additional opportunity exists to purchase the neighboring property at 517 N. Poplar in conjunction with this residence, creating exceptional potential for expanded living, guest accommodations, multi-generational living, or investment opportunities. For those seeking an expanded opportunity, both residences are available together at a combined offering price of $2.99 million. A rare offering in one of Charlotte's most desirable historic neighborhoods, this remarkable home combines architectural significance, refined entertaining spaces, exceptional amenities, and elevated city living.
