Location is everything! This Charlotte home has seen this city truly grow since it was originally built in 1953. This 1 owner home is part of the Plaza-Midwood Association. Across the street from Briar Creek, it faces a beautiful greenway park with walking trails, but it is only 15 minutes, in traffic, from downtown. You are walking distance to some of the best and newest restaurants, bars, breweries and shopping in Charlotte with so much more on the horizon. Briar Creek does create a flood zone for half of the lot, but the home itself was raised and almost completely rebuilt as the result of a flood in 2009 when a bonus room, sunroom and half bath were added. The resulting "crawl" space creates so much storage! The fenced-in yard is full of gardens and flowerbeds, complete with a covered porch swing to enjoy the peacefulness you'll find even this close to the city. Inside has been well maintained over the years.
