1401 Queens Road W, Charlotte, NC

Occupying a commanding position beneath the mature canopy of Queens Road West, this 1926 estate represents a rare opening in the Myers Park corridor, appearing on the market for the first time in three decades. The residence spans 5,011 square feet and is defined by a rigorous preservation of its original character, featuring heart pine and black walnut pegged flooring alongside three rooms finished in antique paneling. The property comprises five bedrooms and six bathrooms across the primary home and a detached guest house, the latter of which provides a sauna and direct access to a full-sized saltwater B&B pool. In a neighborhood where architectural integrity is often compromised by modern expansion, this estate maintains its historical gravity through a library with a concealed powder room and two covered dining porches overlooking manicured gardens. The Myers Park submarket continues to see high demand for properties that balance 1920s provenance with modern utility, such as the home’s integrated kitchen addition. Private viewings may be arranged through Peters & Associates.

About the home

A spacious kitchen addition creates a warm and welcoming gathering place, while generously proportioned living spaces feature exceptional architectural details. Character abounds with three antique-paneled rooms, a hidden powder room off the library, heart pine flooring, black walnut pegged flooring, and a charming flex space ideal as a playroom/hideaway, private retreat, or additional bedroom.
