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.
A classic Arts and Craft Bungalow on a most desirable Dilworth street greets you with an inviting covered full front porch for a sit, sip, swing and cooling fan breezes. Upon entering, the home receives you with a traditional formal living room with gas fireplace to the left, and a flexible room perfect for study, music, etc., beyond its French doors on the right. Beyond the living room, you walk through the dining room, a large white and bright kitchen and an additional dining area which also opens into a light and massive sunroom/great room which tranverses the full rear of the main floor..., perfect for large gatherings! Additionally, there is an office, a guest bedroom and bath, and a half bath. The primary suite, with walk-through closet and bath, two secondary bedrooms, and a full bathroom are located on the upper floor. The basement is finished, containing the laundry room, and two flex spaces, one of which opens onto the rear patio. There is a large, walkable crawl space housing storage space and mechanicals. Finishings throughout, as to be expected, are top of the line, and a full list of features, finishes, appliances, etc. is attached in this MLS listing.
