Since its inception in the 1890′s, Dilworth has been one of Charlotte’s most distinct neighborhoods. Developed as the city’s first suburb, Dilworth was connected to downtown by Charlotte’s first electric streetcar. The success of the initial development of Dilworth led its creator, Edward Dilworth Latta, to expand the neighborhood in the 1910′s, under a plan by the Olmstead Brothers, then the nation’s preeminent landscape designers.
Although their plan was never fully implemented, the Olmstead’s curved roads and dramatic landscaping set the tone for much of Charlotte’s future character. In 1987, Dilworth was listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
Welcome to 1652 Dilworth Road West, a thoughtfully updated home that blends historic charm with modern functionality. Fully renovated in 2010, the home underwent a comprehensive transformation. This included new electrical and plumbing systems, a new roof, and a large addition—which incorporated a basement, den, and primary suite—creating a layout well-suited for today’s lifestyle. The kitchen is beautifully appointed with timeless finishes, designed with the cook and entertainer in mind. It features double ovens, a gas cooktop, an island with a concealed microwave and bar seating, a wet bar with a sink and wine fridge, and a spacious walk-in pantry. The main level offers excellent flexibility with multiple areas that can easily function as an office, guest bedroom, playroom, or drop zone. Upstairs, you’ll find four well-sized bedrooms including the primary suite.  The primary offers two walk-in closets and a well-appointed bath with a marble topped double vanity; soaking tub; large shower with marble flooring, subway tile and bench; and private water closet. A large bonus room with high ceilings in the basement provides the perfect space for a media room, playroom, or additional living area. And one of the closets in the basement is already plumbed for a future half bath.The living space continues outside with a screened-in porch and a large brick paver patio.  Amazing yard that offers privacy with mature foliage and future opportunities for a pool or garage. The home has been consistently maintained and upgraded, including a fully waterproofed and insulated crawl space and in 2019 both HVAC systems were replaced. Recent improvements enhance efficiency and comfort, including a whole-house water softener and reverse osmosis system, dual Rinnai tankless water heaters, new furnace, and upgraded attic insulation. Additional upgrades since 2024 include a dedicated EV fast charger, premium gas logs with a new gas line, the exterior was freshly painted and all roof and wood repairs were completed, making this home truly move-in ready. Ideally located in one of Charlotte’s most sought-after neighborhoods, with close proximity to Uptown, major hospitals, East Boulevard, Latta Park, and Freedom Park, this home offers the best of Dilworth living.
