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.
There are few addresses in Charlotte that carry the weight of Queens Road West, and fewer still that have been elevated to this standard. This stately Myers Park residence represents a ground-up transformation, where classic architecture meets modern precision on one of the city's most prestigious streets. Beyond the brick façade lies a home rebuilt for the way discerning buyers live today. The kitchen anchors the main level with marble surfaces stretching across a generous island, professional-caliber appliances including a six-burner gas range with dual ovens, paired dishwashers, and separate refrigeration and freezer columns. A farm sink and secondary prep sink with filtered water handle the demands of serious cooking, while the adjacent butler's pantry—outfitted with wine storage and an ice maker—ensures seamless entertaining. The main level flows with intention: a gracious living room, formal dining, office, great room, and breakfast area all connect while maintaining distinct purpose. Upstairs, five bedrooms include a primary suite designed as a true retreat with generous proportions, abundant natural light, a fireplace for cooler evenings, and a spa-caliber bath featuring a freestanding tub, marble shower with triple shower heads, double vanity, and private washroom. Five fireplaces punctuate the home, including one on the covered bluestone terrace where outdoor living extends well into the evening hours. A metal pergola overhead, landscape lighting throughout, and a fully fenced yard create an entertainer's backdrop rarely found at this scale. Practical considerations have been addressed with equal care: a whole-home generator provides peace of mind, laundry facilities serve both floors, and a walk-up attic offers future flexibility. Above the detached two-car garage, a complete guest suite with bedroom, full bath, and living space provides options for visitors, staff, or home office needs. The grounds span nearly half an acre with mature trees, in-ground irrigation, and infrastructure in place should a future pool be desired. Located within an easy walk of Myers Park Country Club, Freedom Park, and the boutiques and dining along Selwyn Avenue, this is a rare opportunity to own one of Charlotte's truly significant properties—reimagined for the next generation.
