Since its inception in the 1890′s, Dilworth has been one of Charlotte’s most distinct neighborhoods. Developed as the city’s first suburb, Dilworth was connected to downtown by Charlotte’s first electric streetcar. The success of the initial development of Dilworth led its creator, Edward Dilworth Latta, to expand the neighborhood in the 1910′s, under a plan by the Olmstead Brothers, then the nation’s preeminent landscape designers.
Although their plan was never fully implemented, the Olmstead’s curved roads and dramatic landscaping set the tone for much of Charlotte’s future character. In 1987, Dilworth was listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
Located in the heart of Historic Dilworth — one of Charlotte's most beloved and walkable neighborhoods — this stately two-story brick home is a rare find. Wide-cased openings, high ceilings, gleaming wood floors, and handsome moldings speak to the home's timeless character, while thoughtful updates bring modern comfort throughout. The sellers' renovation includes the "behind the walls" items like wall insulation, electrical, plumbing, new duct-work- the things you cannot see but are glad to have them. Significant updates to the mechanical components include HVAC units: 1st floor gas furnace 2020 and A/C unit 6/2026, 2nd floor gas furnace and A/C unit 6/2026, 3rd floor HVAC unit 6/2026. Two new water heaters 6/2026. The main level flows beautifully from the gracious living room to the formal dining room, a well-appointed kitchen, and a welcoming family room. Wraparound porches on both the first and second levels are perfect for morning coffee or evening entertaining. The kitchen is a cook's dream: a large work island with breakfast bar that seats six, a Wolf gas cooktop and double wall ovens, and a Bosch dishwasher. Here you also find a gas fireplace, two beverage coolers and a wet bar. Quiet retreats include a sunny sunroom and a dedicated home office. Upstairs, the spacious primary suite offers a fireplace and opens to the second-floor porch. The laundry room has nice counter space and plenty of storage. The third level adds a bonus flex space and a 5th bedroom and bath — ideal for an au pair, guests, or a private studio. Additional highlights: new roof (2026), full crawl space and basement encapsulation, charming porches off the family room and a secondary bedroom. Steps from Uptown Charlotte, the light rail, and the vibrant shops and restaurants of both Dilworth and SouthEnd. Walk to everything. Live beautifully.
