Weve maintained the character of this historic 1920s building while completely updating and renovating the interior. The first-floor condos have large double-hung windows that let in an abundance of light in all the rooms. Additionally, the original refinished hardwoods, bathroom tile, and two-panel doors provide the charm so often absent in new construction.
The recently renovated kitchen features stainless appliances and is fully equipped with pots, pans, utensils, etc. The adjacent dining room comfortably seats four with all the place settings. Ample storage in the apartment makes it ideal for long-term guests.

A starter supply of Nest bath products and detergents is included in our amenity package.

Within a half mile walking distance are more than 40 locally owned 40 restaurants (Italian, Mexican, Cajun, and Mediterranean).

If you are looking for local gems, check out The People’s Market, Menya Durama (Ramen), and Moo & Brew (burgers). My favorite BBQ joint is Midwood Smokehouse (but this is a touchy subject in the crossroads of BBQ). Have a beer at Legion Brewery, a drink at the infamous Thirsty Beaver (Mick Jagger’s favorite spot), or a cocktail at the Crunkleton.
On the ‘Plaza Piazza,’ you will find many locally owned shops including antiques, fine gifts, wines, and bespoke clothing for men and women. Elizabeth is also a neighborhood with a vibrant nightlife. If you’re looking for an exciting place to stay in Charlotte, you’ve come to the right place.
