Property Description
Built in 1951, this one-of-a-kind home traces its roots to a 41-acre tract purchased directly from William Thomas Harris, founder of Harris Teeter and owner of historic Vernedale Farms. Adding to the property's storied past, local legend holds that the expansive field stretching between Vernedale Road and what would later become Hanna Court once served as a private grass airstrip.
Step outside to your own backyard retreat featuring a saltwater swimming pool, expansive fenced yard, and 29 mature perimeter trees that create exceptional privacy—perfect for entertaining, relaxing, or enjoying peaceful evenings at home.
Since purchasing the home in 2015, the sellers have invested extensively in preserving its historic character while updating virtually every major system and finish. Improvements include a complete kitchen renovation, two fully remodeled bathrooms, refinished hardwood floors, HVAC and ductwork, electrical and plumbing upgrades, basement waterproofing with a Dry Pro drainage system, sump pump and crawlspace encapsulation, new siding, gutters, insulation, appliances, lighting, paint, brand-new carpet, fencing, garage door, landscaping, and much more. The saltwater pool was added in 2016, the roof was replaced in 2020 with Camelot architectural shingles, and new living room windows were installed in 2025.
This is a truly move-in-ready home where the hard work has already been done. Few properties this close to the heart of Charlotte offer this combination of documented history, nearly an acre of land, exceptional privacy, a backyard pool retreat, and extensive modern improvements—all while preserving the character that makes a 1951 home so special.
