Updated home on a premium oversized private homesite in one of Charlotte’s fastest-rising neighborhoods in sought-after Merry Oaks. Featuring an updated kitchen, baths, electrical, and refinished hardwoods on a rare deep level homesite. Who’s ready to live on a tree-lined street with sidewalks and walkability? Nestled in an established neighborhood known for mature trees and timeless charm, this home offers the kind of everyday convenience and character that’s becoming harder to find — including rare front-door mail delivery. Vintage Charlotte charm meets extensive modern updates in this beautifully renovated, move-in-ready cottage in desirable 28205. From the moment you arrive, you’ll appreciate the warmth, character, and thoughtful improvements throughout. And the spacious screened-in porch? It’s guaranteed to become your favorite spot for morning coffee, evening unwinding, and everything in between. Set on an expansive 0.34-acre lot (75 x 200 ft) backing to the Golf Course at Charlotte Country Club with a substantial natural buffer, this property offers a level of privacy that’s increasingly rare this close to the city — no rear neighbors, mature trees, and a peaceful tucked-away setting just minutes from everything Charlotte has to offer. Inside, the thoughtfully renovated home blends preserved 1940s/1950s character with modern functionality and features. Offering 3 bedrooms, with the third bedroom currently serving as a versatile flex space featuring custom built-in storage, the layout easily accommodates a home office, nursery, guest room, or creative space. Major recent improvements include a new roof (2024), new HVAC and ductwork, updated electrical, renovated kitchen and bath spaces, updated lighting, newly re-screened porch (2024), new 14' x 20' concrete patio pad, and a gas fireplace with new logs (2024). Original details — including the charming butler’s swinging door and vintage medicine cabinet — were intentionally preserved to honor the home’s historic roots while creating a truly move-in-ready living experience. The deep, level lot also provides incredible flexibility for the future. Enjoy the home and outdoor space as-is, expand over time, or explore long-term development potential in one of Charlotte’s fastest-evolving neighborhoods where new construction continues to gain momentum. Located minutes from Plaza Midwood, NoDa, Uptown, greenways, dining, amazing shopping at SouthPark, and entertainment — including convenient access to a nearby greenway entrance on Arnold Drive — this is a rare opportunity to own a renovated home with exceptional privacy, a large homesite, and long-term upside in sought-after Merry Oaks. Move in now, build later, or simply enjoy a property where charm, privacy, convenience, and future potential all come together. Don't forget the greenway, residents enjoy direct access to the Briar Creek Greenway, a paved trail linking Merry Oaks with Plaza Midwood. The route winds through a wooded setting and crosses Briar Creek via a pedestrian bridge, offering a convenient and scenic option for walking, running, or biking
