900 Houston Heights Road, Charlotte, NC

The rarity of substantial acreage within Charlotte city limits is exemplified by this 2021 custom estate, positioned at the terminus of a quiet lane behind imported iron gates. Set on 1.3 private acres, the residence offers a degree of seclusion typically found much further from the metropolitan core, yet remains precisely positioned for access to University City and the regional transit corridors. The architecture prioritizes a main-level lifestyle, incorporating four bedrooms and five bathrooms across 2,974 square feet, with both the primary and guest suites situated on the first floor. Inside, the aesthetic is defined by disciplined craftsmanship: coffered ceilings, custom cabinetry, and a kitchen anchored by an oversized quartz island. The layout transitions to a screened outdoor terrace designed for hosting, complete with a serving window and a built-in deck overlooking the grounds. For the collector or hobbyist, the absence of restrictive covenants paired with a dedicated outbuilding represents a significant logistical advantage in this submarket. Private viewings are arranged through Peters & Associates.

About the home

Rare Charlotte opportunity: a custom-built 2021 home on 1.3± private acres, tucked at the end of the street behind a dramatic imported iron gate with no HOA. A remarkably private setting that feels far removed from the city, while still within Charlotte city limits and minutes from University City, I-485, UNC Charlotte, Concord Mills, Harrisburg, dining, shopping and Truliant Amphitheater. Designed for both everyday living and entertaining, the home features 4 bedrooms, 3 full baths and 2 half baths, a large office/study, flex/workout room and expansive open living spaces. The thoughtfully designed floorplan includes both the primary suite and a separate guest suite on the main level. Custom details throughout include extensive trim work, beams, a coffered ceiling, custom cabinetry and hardware, an oversized quartz island, imported tilework and KitchenAid appliances. A large screened outdoor living area with a flip-out serving window connects the kitchen to the outdoors, while the spacious deck with built-in seating and expansive backyard offer even more room to gather, relax and entertain. An oversized 28' x 12' storage building/workshop adds valuable flexibility. Private, distinctive and exceptionally difficult to duplicate.
