Some homes impress in photos. This one has to be experienced. Tucked into a quiet cul-de-sac in South Charlotte just minutes from downtown Matthews, this custom-built residence feels worlds away—surrounded by mature trees, overlooking a flat backyard with surrounding green space, and filled with architectural details rarely found.
Step inside… Read More and the reason becomes immediately clear. A dramatic 30-foot cedar tongue-and-groove ceiling soars above the main living space, while a two-story wall of windows frames the wooded setting and fills the home with natural light. At its center, a striking river rock fireplace with solid timber mantel gives this grand space unexpected warmth and character.
The newly remodeled kitchen is equally memorable, with an oversized island, handcrafted Moroccan Zellige tile, designer lighting, and an open connection to the breakfast area and keeping room. From here, step onto the screened porch and take in one of this property's greatest luxuries: privacy. The large, flat and usable backyard offers exceptional space to entertain, play, garden, or simply enjoy the peaceful natural surroundings.
The main-level primary suite provides privacy and convenience, while upstairs you'll find three spacious ensuite bedrooms, a dedicated study area, bonus room, and second laundry room.
But the home doesn't stop there.
The finished walk-out lower level—with 10-foot ceilings and its own exterior access—creates nearly an entire second living space. A guest suite, kitchenette, fireplace, surround-sound media area, fitness room, office/additional bedroom, and flexible entertaining space make it ideal for extended family, long-term guests, an au pair, or simply an incredible place to gather.
With six bedrooms, three finished levels and nearly 5,800 square feet, the home offers remarkable flexibility without sacrificing warmth or privacy. All-brick construction, 10-foot main-level ceilings, multiple fireplaces and thoughtfully updated interiors add to its timeless appeal.
And the location is difficult to replicate: close to charming downtown Matthews, Arboretum, SouthPark, Uptown Charlotte, highly regarded public and private schools nearby (walking distance to Providence High School), shopping and dining—yet tucked into a private wooded setting in Mecklenburg County.
1514 Elmsford Lane isn't a home that can be fully understood from a floor plan or photographs. The soaring architecture, natural light, peaceful setting and scale of the backyard reveal themselves when you walk through the door.
Come experience what the photos can't capture. Read Less
