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 504 E. Kingston Avenue – where historic Dilworth charm meets everyday comfort. Built in 1917, this bungalow has character in spades: refinished original hardwoods, new oak floors upstairs, high ceilings, four fireplaces, and yes—those wonderful solid wood pocket doors that have stood the test of time. The main-floor primary suite includes a clawfoot tub, separate shower, and the "ever elusive" large walk in closet. Another downstairs bedroom is being used as an office now, but works great if you’d like little ones close by. Upstairs, the bonus loft is the ultimate flex space—a playroom, game room, or cozy lounge. Plus there are two nice size bedrooms and an updated bath. The kitchen is a standout with a Wolf range, Subzero refrigerator, marble countertops, and custom cabinetry. Two living rooms on the first floor give everyone space to spread out, and the front porch with swing is a true Dilworth classic. Ready to embrace the city-living lifestyle— this is THE prime location! You will love walking to Latta Park, Dilworth Elementary, South End’s shops and restaurants, the light rail, and even the hospitals. This home is perfect for buyers who want authentic character, walkability, and community—all wrapped up in one of Charlotte’s favorite Historic neighborhoods.
