Property Description
Seller is currently accepting backup offers. Any backup offer will be subject to the terms and conditions of the existing contract and will not become primary unless and until the current contract is terminated in accordance with its terms. Welcome to 209 Grandin Road, a distinctive 1933 residence in the heart of Wesley Heights, one of Charlotte’s most established and rapidly evolving historic neighborhoods. Situated on a generous 0.23-acre lot and offering approximately 1,963 square feet, this 4-bedroom, 2-bath home presents a rare opportunity to own a property that combines historic character, functional living space, and long-term potential just minutes from Uptown Charlotte.
From the moment you arrive, the home’s classic architecture and welcoming front porch reflect the timeless appeal that has made Wesley Heights one of Charlotte’s most desirable urban neighborhoods. Inside, large windows fill the home with natural light, highlighting the original character and warmth found throughout. Hardwood floors, spacious living and dining areas, and a practical floor plan create a comfortable environment for everyday living while still providing flexibility for future customization.
The main living spaces offer a blend of charm and functionality, featuring generous room sizes rarely found in newer construction. The dining room serves as a natural gathering space, while the kitchen offers abundant cabinetry, granite countertops, extensive prep space, stainless steel appliances, and a large center island that provides additional storage and workspace.
The home's 4-bedroom layout provides flexibility for a variety of lifestyles, whether utilized as a primary residence, guest accommodations, home office space, or future rental opportunities. The bathrooms have been thoughtfully updated while maintaining a clean, timeless aesthetic. An unfinished basement adds valuable storage space and utility, while a new roof installed in 2026 provides an important recent capital improvement for the next owner.
Beyond the home itself, the lot is one of the property's most compelling features. At approximately 10,019 square feet, the site offers a larger footprint than many nearby properties and presents meaningful future flexibility. A future owner may wish to explore the potential for an Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU), subject to buyer verification, zoning requirements, Historic District approval, and all applicable City of Charlotte and Mecklenburg County permitting requirements. The lot's configuration and depth create an opportunity that is increasingly difficult to find this close to Uptown.
For owner-occupants, the property offers the chance to enjoy a historic home while potentially creating additional living, guest, or income-producing space over time. For investors, builders, and long-term holders, the combination of lot size, location, and future development potential creates a compelling value proposition within a neighborhood that continues to experience significant investment and appreciation. As noted in prior development discussions, the property's larger lot and future ADU potential are meaningful differentiators within the Wesley Heights market.
Location remains one of the strongest attributes of 209 Grandin Road. Wesley Heights continues to benefit from its proximity to some of Charlotte's most popular destinations, including the Stewart Creek Greenway, Irwin Creek Greenway, Rhino Market, Noble Smoke, Bossy Beulah’s, Town Brewing Company, Bank of America Stadium, and Uptown Charlotte.
The surrounding West End corridor continues to experience transformative growth, bringing new investment, infrastructure improvements, and increased demand for housing in the area. As a result, Wesley Heights remains highly attractive to those seeking a neighborhood with strong long-term fundamentals, architectural character, and proximity to Charlotte's urban core.
