About this home
Nestled in the heart of Madison Park’s most desirable address, this painted white, full-brick mid-century modern ranch sits on Montford Drive — a lively, walkable strip beloved for its local restaurants, live music, and nostalgic charm. Known as one of Charlotte’s most social streets, Montford offers a vibrant yet relaxed atmosphere, giving residents the rare combination of neighborhood community and city convenience. Inside, the home showcases timeless mid-century style with thoughtful updates for today’s living. The living room is a true focal point, anchored by a dramatic wood-burning fireplace wall and triple sets of floor-to-ceiling windows that flood the space with natural light. Original hardwood floors run throughout much of the home, adding warmth and character. The renovated kitchen blends modern functionality with classic design, featuring 42" white shaker cabinetry, sleek upgraded lighting, and a premium Frigidaire Gallery stainless appliance package — including a 5-burner gas range with stainless hood, refrigerator, and dishwasher. A formal dining room provides space for entertaining, while a bright breakfast room off the kitchen offers a cozy, everyday spot to gather. Step outside to one of the home’s most unique features: a spacious screened porch with a vaulted ceiling and built-in electric heater, perfect for year-round enjoyment. Overlooking the expansive, level backyard, it’s an inviting retreat for both quiet mornings and lively evenings with friends. The fenced yard offers privacy, a storage shed, and direct access to Little Sugar Creek, enhancing the natural setting. Practical updates bring peace of mind: HVAC, tankless water heater, and water filter were installed in 2019. Additional upgrades include a 200-amp electrical panel, leafguard gutters, new ductwork, Ring doorbell and security lighting, modern ceiling fans, a new front door, updated bathroom vents and toilets, fresh interior and porch paint, a garbage disposal, and driveway sealant. The seller has also enhanced curb appeal by replacing Bradford pears with graceful crape myrtles in the front yard. With 3 bedrooms, 2 full bathrooms, and a versatile floor plan, this home balances comfort and functionality while embracing its mid-century roots. The location is unmatched — enjoy a short stroll to Montford’s dining and nightlife scene or a quick drive to SouthPark, Park Road Shopping Center, and Uptown Charlotte. This property is more than a home — it’s a lifestyle. A rare opportunity to live in one of Charlotte’s most sought-after neighborhoods, in a home that offers character, modern upgrades, and walkability to some of the city’s favorite spots.
