Looking for a large luxury home with a pool, dedicated home gym, and a private wooded lot of nearly two acres in one of Charlotte's most desirable south Charlotte neighborhoods? You turn off the main road and the noise stops. The street curves through a tunnel of mature hardwoods, and when the house appears as you reach the cul-de-sac—full brick, arched windows, black shutters framing every pane—you feel the scale of what you're looking at. Charlotte's skyline is visible somewhere in the distance, but here everything is still. The entry is grand without being cold. A two-story foyer opens in front of you, the curved staircase rising with its iron balusters and carpet runner, the dining room through an arch to the left with its dark lacquered ceiling and amber chandelier, the sound of the family room fireplace just beyond. You can feel that someone built this home with intention. The kitchen tells the story in one room: a Thermador pro range beneath a custom stainless hood, a marble-look island under rose-gold pendant lights, a custom built-in banquette for morning coffee, a hidden Thermador refrigerator, and a triple window that looks out over the expansive lawn and—just past the tiered garden with Japanese maples—the blue of the pool. The living room stone fireplace is the kind that earns its place—anchoring the room the way fireplaces are supposed to. On a summer afternoon, the covered deck is the center of everything. French doors open to a wood-plank ceiling, a ceiling fan turning slowly, the lush yard spread out below. The diving board is there. So is the in-pool basketball hoop—because this is a home that knows what a Saturday is for. Five bedrooms. Four 1/2 baths. A finished lower level with its own fireplace, exercise room, and walkout access. This is the home you trade up to and never leave.
