George Stephens developed a plan for a streetcar suburb on his father-in-law’s (John Spring Myers) farm in 1905. The neighborhood was designed by the Harvard-trained landscape architect, John Nolen, and work was underway by 1911.
Myers Park is distinguished for its winding tree-lined streets, large historic homes and architectural variety. Due to its landscaped beauty, it is one of the most-visited parts of Charlotte.
For those short on time, a simple drive through the neighborhood is worthwhile in order to view the large, historic mansions along the main streets.
Welcome to 1136 Queens Road, where timeless Myers Park architecture meets beautiful updates. A gracious foyer, wide hallways, soaring 11-foot ceilings and a striking staircase introduce the home’s elegant proportions. The main level offers formal living and dining rooms, a private study and a light-filled sunroom, while the updated kitchen opens seamlessly to the great room for relaxed everyday living and effortless entertaining. Glass doors extend the living space to a covered porch overlooking a private backyard retreat with mature landscaping and a saltwater pool. The main-level primary suite features dual walk-in closets and a spa-inspired bath with separate vanities, a frameless glass shower, soaking tub and heated floors. Upstairs are three additional bedrooms, two full baths and two versatile living spaces, including a sun-filled flex room. The basement adds a bonus room, an exercise room and cozy wine cellar. A detached guest cottage completes this exceptional property. Ideally situated in the heart of Myers Park, this historic home is just blocks from the Duke Mansion, Greenway, Freedom Park, shops and restaurants. Welcome home!
