Welcome Home to an unbeatable location!! This iconic Victorian Farmhouse is right at the heart of Plaza Midwood at Thomas and Central Aves, in one of Charlotte’s most hip neighborhoods. Park the car and walk along with the locals and their pups to shops, yoga, quaint coffee houses and great restaurants.

The space
The neighborhood is awesome! It’s friendly, diverse, safe and close to everything. You may even run into a celebrity - Bill Murray, Bob Dylan, Lenny Kravitz, Woody Harrelson, Dave Chappelle, Justin Timberlake, Mick Jagger and Barack Obama have all visited.

This house is a clean, comfortable, economical stay for groups of 10.

In the main house, sit on the large, wrap-around front porch. There is plenty of room to socialize while saying hi to the neighbors walking by. Or have an intimate breakfast at the bistro table.

You can choose to retreat to the privacy of the large screened porch at the back of the house to take a nap on the day bed or gather everyone for more relaxation out of doors with plenty of extra seating.

The house has enough rooms and real beds to suit large groups. There are 4.5 bedrooms, including a cozy bed nook with twin bed. There are 2 living rooms – one up and one down. The upstairs living room has a full mattress incorporated into 2 chaise lounges to sleep 1. There are 3 full Bathrooms, a reading/cocktail area; a beautiful, fully equipped kitchen and a huge dining table for family meals and games.

Originally built in 1920, it is one of the older houses in Charlotte and is located in the Plaza Midwood Historic district. In 2010, it was fully renovated and enlarged - adding the second story, increasing the footprint of the house and adding a large screened porch in the rear. In 2019, a further five-year renovation of the property completed including the house interior being professionally designed.

The addition of the new 8’foot horizontal fence with sound barrier separates the house from the City bustle without feeling like a fortress.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The house has 6 beds to sleep 10 people very comfortably. The house is in an urban area and neighborhood so some noise is to be expected. Each bedroom has its own white-noise machine for a restful night’s sleep, keeping the City at bay.

The linens were chosen from the Biltmore Estate in nearby Asheville, NC for their luxurious feel and comfort and are 100% Egyptian cotton. All mattresses and pillows enclosed in protective covers. Towels also provided by the Biltmore.

The toiletries were hand-chosen from Beekman 1802. Theirs is a wonderful story of a small goat farm in New York. Their handcrafted products are locally sourced from their artisan community which supports over +300 makers and craftspeople and their products can be found in many boutique hotels.

WiFi, Netflix and Amazon Prime services included. For Sports, recommend enjoying with a group at one of many different restaurants and bars.

Order your groceries online before you arrive and have them hand-delivered to your car. No need to waste precious vacation time on grocery shopping. Instructions to order and pickup for the Harris Teeter 1 block away included welcome email upon booking.

The house is for groups and has everything on site to prepare and serve group meals. You are welcome to use any spices or condiments in the kitchen.

The main house has a driveway (single lane) with enough parking for 2 large vehicles or 3 small. Additional parking is on the street out front (recommend to fold in driver’s side mirror and don’t leave valuables in the car).

No smoking inside the house but permitted on the porches.

Guest access
You’ll have the space to yourself and will only share it with those you’re traveling with.
