A rare find in Uptown Charlotte - one of the few single-family homes in the Third Ward, and even rarer with a yard like this. Set on just under 0.2 acre, this home pairs authentic historic character with the everyday comforts buyers actually want. Original cedar shake exterior, working pocket doors, a decorative fireplace, and millwork throughout tell the story of the home's past, while three fully modern baths and an updated kitchen keep it firmly in the present. All three bedrooms feature large walk-in closets, part of the thoughtful original floor plan. Outside, the 10-foot-deep, full-width front porch is built for slow evenings, and the back deck sits in the shade of a mature beech tree - ideal for grilling and gathering. Step out the door to true urban living: Frazier Park is a block away, with shopping, dining, nightlife, the arena, and the stadium just beyond. Homes like this don't come to market often. A true piece of Charlotte history - don't miss it!
