George Stephens developed a plan for a streetcar suburb on his father-in-law’s (John Spring Myers) farm in 1905. The neighborhood was designed by the Harvard-trained landscape architect, John Nolen, and work was underway by 1911.
Myers Park is distinguished for its winding tree-lined streets, large historic homes and architectural variety. Due to its landscaped beauty, it is one of the most-visited parts of Charlotte.
For those short on time, a simple drive through the neighborhood is worthwhile in order to view the large, historic mansions along the main streets.
This stately, beautifully renovated residence on prestigious Queens Road West blends timeless sophistication with modern comfort. Built in 1936 by the Heath family and cherished by only two additional owners, 1555 Queens Road West reflects a rare legacy of care. A distinctive fireplace dating to the late 1800s, relocated from a Central Avenue home, adds exceptional character. A major 2003 expansion introduced the spacious breakfast room, kitchen and pantry, inviting family room, primary suite, and office. The thoughtfully designed layout offers the perfect balance of elegance and comfort—gracious formal living and dining rooms set the stage for memorable entertaining, while the cozy den and impressive family room provide relaxed spaces for everyday living. The chef-inspired, newly updated kitchen showcases stainless-steel appliances, a stylish bar with wine cooler, and a generous central island that flows seamlessly into a sunlit breakfast room. Upstairs, the private primary suite is set apart from three additional bedrooms and includes a spa-like bath renovated in 2023 and dual organized closets. Added in 2020, the garage and versatile studio with full bath, beverage center, and Murphy bed complete this exceptional property. The expansive, secluded backyard is beautifully landscaped with vibrant greenery and mature trees, offering a serene retreat with plenty of room to add a swimming pool.
