Property Description

Tucked into the canopy. End of the hall. Top of the building.

If you know Myers Park, you already know why this matters.

1300 Queens Road has anchored this stretch since 1961, back when the trees lining the
boulevard were still young enough to count. Unit 402 sits at the top of that building, in the
corner, at the very end of the hallway. A top-floor corner placement at the end of the hall is the
kind of footprint that doesn't come along often. Walk in and the first thing you'll notice is the light. Then the trees. The unit sits in the canopy on two sides, and because it's the corner, that light moves through the rooms all day, soft in the morning off the balcony, brighter through the afternoon, golden by the time the day winds down.
Original parquet floors run through the main living areas, hand-laid the way they did in 1961, the kind of warmth and pattern that's hard to replicate today. Just over 1,300 square feet. True three-bedroom, two-bath, a configuration other listings in this building have openly described as rare. The current owner uses the third bedroom as a home office, and once you see the light in there, you'll understand why. Use it as an office, a studio, a
library, a guest room or as the third bedroom it was built to be. That kind of optionality, in this building, at this price, is what buyers spend months hunting for and rarely find. The great room opens to floor-to-ceiling sliders that pull the balcony in. The kitchen carries custom cabinetry, a gas range, and a microwave. And the in-unit washer and dryer is a feature only a select few units in this building have, a meaningful advantage and one of the most-asked-about details in the building. The balcony is the moment. It sits up in the canopy, and the way the trees wrap the corner of the building, you forget how close to everything you actually are. People who tour this unit tend to stop talking when they step out there. A few notes on the building, since they matter here more than most: The HOA covers heat, AC, gas, electric, water, sewer, trash, cable, building maintenance, landscaping, the pool, and reserves. Your monthly cost is fixed and predictable in a way ownership rarely is. Covered parking drops you steps from the lobby. Guest parking is generous. The community pool is well kept. The grounds show care. On location, Freedom Park is only moments away. So is Queens University, the Myers Park library, and a handful of restaurants and shops people actually return to. Uptown and South End are a quick distance away when you want them, and a comfortable distance when you don't. This is the part of Charlotte that doesn't change much, which is the entire point. A note on positioning: comparable units in this building have recently traded between $483,000
and $539,000. This one is listed at $449,000. Make of that what you will.
