Stately French Country Manor house in the heart of Charlotte.  Custom built on nearly two acres in 2000, this home has been remodeled for entertaining and casual living.  This home is a unique find - from the serene setting off a quiet winding road, to the circle stone drive.

There is room for everyone including extended family with four floors of living space. The main level is elegant yet comfortable. Two story entry with coved ceiling paired with brass and iron stair railings draw you into the light-filled family room.  

The kitchen is worthy of a magazine. Everything was custom designed from the rich island with Calcutta Gold marble countertop to the built in refrigerators with detailing to mimic a vintage champaign chest.  Wolfe cooktop, sub zero designer series refigerator and freezer, Wolf Double Ovens, Bosche paneled dishwasher, Kitchenaid Refrigerated drawers, warming drawer and built in Miele Cappacino Maker. 

There is a scullery butler's pantry off the kitchen with extra room for serving and storage.  A dumbwaiter runs between the garage and the kitchen. The formal dining room features a fireplace, floor to ceiling windows out to the front yard, and a showcase china closet.  

The tranquil master suite is also on the main floor, with a veiw of the pool and yard thru oversized windows. The master bath has been fully remodeled with new cabinetry and marble countertops. Heated marble floors, double shower with steam feature, and clawfoot tub create a spa-like retreat. There are two separate walk-in closets plus an additional laundry hook up in the larger closet. 

Take the elevator to the bedroom level where there is a casual family-play room loft surrounded by four large bedrooms. Each bedroom has an ensuite bath. The sellers added the spacious laundry room with cabinets and countertops.  

Four guest bedrooms are on the second floor, each with an ensuite bath and lots of closet space.  Each bedroom has it's own subtle flair including sleeping nooks for kids sleep overs, sitting areas, thick moldings, hardwood floors and more.  

If you are looking for space to get away - you'll love the finished attic.  It reminds me of a Paris apartment with it's domers and skylight.  It's the perfect place to have an art studio, craft room or even a teen apartment.  There is a full bath with dual sinks.  

The basement features another family room that is open to the theatre room.  There is a wet bar and wine cellar with another refrigerator for late night snacking.  Another guest bedroom on this level is being used as an exercise room.  A half bath and full bath are on this level.

The four car garage is finished and heated and cooled.  There is additional storage off the garage.  Plus a dumb waiter elevator to take grocery's up to the scullery.  

Outside your family will love the pool with cabana.  Just past the swimming pool there is a lit sports court for soccer or football practice.
