Don’t miss this incredible opportunity to own, live in and love an Alenky Signature Home, nestled in an amazing Plaza Midwood location!
Introducing a Frusterio-designed masterpiece, built by the esteemed Alenky Signature Homes. This residence seamlessly combines old-world warmth with modern sophistication, offering a rare opportunity for the discerning buyer to own a distinguished new home on an expansive half-acre lot in Charlotte’s coveted Midwood neighborhood.
Spanning approximately 4,500 square feet over two levels, this home is designed to impress. The grand two-story foyer features a custom staircase, a barreled ceiling, and a double-height wall of windows.
The main level boasts 10-foot ceilings and white oak hardwood floors, with open-concept social spaces that flow effortlessly into one another. The large kitchen includes a sunlit breakfast area and a spacious island. Modern Jenn-Air appliances complement the exceptional custom cabinetry, highlighted by a 48-inch chef’s range beneath a custom metal hood with a unique scalloped surround. Nearby, you’ll find a convenient bar and a huge pantry with an appliance counter.
The spacious living room features a cast stone fireplace, heavy millwork walls, and a wall of glass doors that open onto a covered porch. The primary retreat offers a beamed ceiling with antiqued corbels and a French door leading to the porch. The luxurious primary bath includes a freestanding tub, zero-clearance shower with a waterfall edge, and a double custom vanity. The expansive primary closet offers defined spaces and a convenient laundry tower.
The main level is completed with paneled hallways featuring sconce lighting, a beautifully detailed powder room, and a drop zone leading to the garage.
Ascending the gorgeous wide staircase to the second level, you’ll discover a central hallway leading to three gracious bedroom suites, each with walk-in closets and private en-suite baths featuring designer finishes. Additionally, there is a large bonus room perfect for a media or gaming space, which also includes a large closet and private bath, making it a potential extra sleeping area. This level also hosts a large laundry room and a versatile flex space perfect for a craft room, home gym, or playroom.
The expansive rear yard, a rare find in this neighborhood, offers the perfect space for a pool and cabana, which the builder is open to discussing as an added feature.
Midwood is a truly special historic community, located just minutes from uptown Charlotte. It features a park and its own charming downtown area with trendy shops, a grocery store, and some of Charlotte’s most popular restaurants and pubs.
