About this property

Center City Bungalow - Historic District

Enjoy this charming, spacious & relaxing 2 story, 3BR/2.5BA home in historic Wesley Heights, uptown. Near Gateway Center with access in minutes to all the great restaurants, arts, nightlife, and shopping Charlotte's uptown has to offer.

The Space

This 3BR, 2.5BA 1920's inspired Bungalow is in the heart of it all.. the house is a beautiful two story home in Charlotte's historic and charming Wesley Heights in 3rd Ward. Of all Charlotte’s historic neighborhoods, Wesley Heights may be the best-kept secret. Located due west of Uptown and within a stone’s throw of Bank of America Stadium (Go Panthers!) Convenience is key to Wesley Heights’ popularity. The neighborhood sits just outside the I-77/I-277 loop circling uptown Charlotte, and the entrance to I-77 is a half-mile away. With shady, safe suburban tree-lined streets, plenty of parking, combined with quick access to uptown, Wesley Heights holds the same appeal for Charlotte urbanites today as when it was originally built in the 1920's. It is also walking distance to the greenway that goes through Frazier park (tennis, soccer, jogging, biking, dog play area, etc..) which leads you to gateway center uptown.

The house is very spacious (2000+ SF), airy with lots of natural light beaming through all day. It has 12' ceilings throughout, brazilian cherry hardwood floors, premium italian stone countertops, cherry cabinets, stainless steel appliances, gas fireplace, etc... Lela Court is surrounded by many wonderful restaurants and stores, you never have to go far from home. The Panthers Stadium and Bobcats arena are also very close so you can always quickly catch an exciting, live football or basketball game.

The master suite is on the main level, is very private, and spacious with a vaulted trey ceiling and ceiling fan. The closet is a large walk-in closet with plenty of space for all your belongings and more. The private master bathroom has italian tiled shower, double vanity marble sinks and italian tiled floors. The living room / kitchen area are also on the main floor and fully equipped for your comfort and enjoyment. There are 2 additional rooms (one of them with a private balcony) upstairs within a Jack & Jill full bathroom.

There is never any hassle with parking as there is ample free street parking right in front of the house and also in the back of the house.

Guest Access

The front door is equipped with a keyless entry for easy 24 hours access.

Interaction with Guests

I like to give my guests the privacy they deserve, however, if I can be of any assistance to you before and during your stay, you may contact me via phone, text and/or email at any time.

The Neighborhood

Great Place!!!

My family and I enjoyed our stay. The bungalow pictures match the images online. Nice quiet tree lined street and easy drive to major events in Charlotte. This will definitely be my first choice on my next trip to Charlotte.

Nice house well situated near "Uptown" Charlotte

I had the pleasure of staying here recently with two associates when we were in Charlotte for work. The house is situated in a nice section of Wesley Heights where the relatively new houses were all built as individual designs mimicking older neighborhoods. It is quiet and generally (except for Saturday night) easy parking. While it is not super convenient to things like a grocery store, those are not terribly far to drive to. There are a few different restaurants that are walkable (though you might want to drive) and include American cuisine, a brewpub, Italian, and sushi. The house was clean and comfortable with shower amenities provided. Overall, it was a good weeklong stay and I hope to return since I'm in Charlotte relatively frequently.

Great Place to stay

My experience was wonderful. The house was nice and very clean. There were plenty available parks along the street in front and back. Nice size bedrooms. I wish the living room had a larger open floor plan, and the other “Den” is more like a foyer, only room for one half sofa. I didn’t like that we had to pay $25 exam hour extra for late check out, but maybe that’s the way it is, I don’t know. Host gave us our privacy and did not bother us at at, yet was so responsive. I would definitely stay again.

Would Book Again

A lovely home in a great neighborhood for our purposes this trip. Somehow the entry instructions didn’t reach me on VRBO by the time we arrived but a quick call/text and we were in. Clean living and kitchen. Spacious for our group of six. All three beds were comfy. Walk to stadium for concert was 1 mile. Paved walkway the whole way. A nice laundry room that we would have used if it was a longer stay. I was concerned because there were a few 1-2 star reviews stating the place was dirty. This was not the case. CLEAN. COMFY. CONVENIENT. we would stay again.

Not a clean property

This is a nice location with access to restaurants and close to Uptown. That’s about it. Upon arrival it was dark. The next morning when the sunlight hit, I could see a LOT of things that were dirty and needed attention. Baseboards in the living room and kitchen were very dirty. Color spots were on the floor and counters in kitchen. Stools in the kitchen were very wobbly. Microwave was covered in tape. There was big pieces of old food on the floor around the stove. Dishes were dirty that were put away as clean were everywhere! The oven had baked on and burnt food that looked like sauce. It smoked when the oven was turned on. Upon trying to clean, the only thing found was dish detergent and paper towels. No dish cloth. No sponges. Couldn’t use a wash cloth because none were left. I called the owner several times and left messages. I text the number given, no response. I sent messages through the communication portal. No response. When the owner finally contacted me back hours later, he only acknowledged that I would not be charged for the dirty items. No apology was given. I never got a response about cleaning products or were they going to be provided. On top of that, both toilets upstairs clogged. With the uncleanliness, broken items, and lack of communication, I don’t suggest this property.

Adequate and very convenient

The property needs some TLC. The carpet is very worn in places. I liked the little backyard. The walking path was great for walking the dogs. I believe if you were going to a function at the AT&T stadium you could walk there if you wanted. The place has very convenient access to the downtown area.

Excellent location, cute neighborhood, met our needs

This house is located within a couple miles of downtown night life. The neighborhood is very cute and felt safe. We were a group of 6 friends/family in town for the Viking/Panther game. The house was as described and was clean and functional. We could all sit in the living room just fine. Some of the recent reviews seem a bit harsh of this place. It does show some wear and tear but it’s a rental property. If you like the outdoors or need some exercise check out the Stewart Creek Greenway trail just down the street. Really nice walking trail. Although we didn’t do it the trail looks to go to Bank of America stadium (maybe a mile away)? Uber was very available and cheap to the stadium and downtown.

Outstanding location

If you are coming to down for an event at the stadium, you couldn't get a better place. The property is an easy twenty minute walk to the stadium, a little longer to downtown, but very convenient. It was also in a very nice uptown location, with very nice surrounding properties. The property itself was very nice, the veranda off the upstairs bedroom was exceptional. I would definitely stay here again.
