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.
Located on the highly sought-after Queens Road West, this lovely Tudor home is beautifully updated for modern living while preserving all the best of days gone by. The thoughtful layout makes for elegant entertaining, (the dining room!) while still finding the quiet moments. Built-ins and bookshelves for the book lovers, create layers of design. At the heart, is the gorgeous updated chef's kitchen with its oversized island meant for gathering, and a step away from the window-lined great-room with views to the lush private yard. Upstairs, each of the 4 bedrooms has its own en-suite bath, deep closets and generous dimensions. The upstairs laundry room & the downstairs mud rooms are loaded with storage, oversized sinks and room to maneuver. And of course, the garage apartment -- complete with kitchenette & full bath, is the loveliest of guest retreats (or office or work-out studio?) Serene and private, this beautiful 1936 home is a homage to lawn parties and cocktails by the fire, but easily manages homework at the kitchen table. Come and see.
