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.
Unique opportunity to restore a historically relevant home located near shopping, retail and dining in South Park, Cotswold, and Strawberry Hill. Beautiful tree-lined lot spans 7.03 acres. Exciting opportunity for mid-century modern enthusiasts to renovate a home designed by renowned architect, Arthur Gould Odell, Jr., notably, one of the most influential architects in the South. The property’s deed restrictions suggest the potential to either build one home on this site, subdivide, and build two new homes, or thirdly, to subdivide and build one new home on approximately 4.5 acres while preserving the existing “O’dell” home on the remaining lot. Situated on a quiet street off Providence Road between Fairview Road and Sharon Amity, that boasts large homes on large lots. Mid-century modern one-story home features slate floors, Canadian Cypress walls, Cedar closets, vaulted ceilings, large master bedroom and large glass windows throughout. Beautiful private lot in the center of Charlotte!
