Charlotte rent got you wondering if you'll ever actually own something? Before you renew that lease, come inside this one. At a price that's getting harder to find this close to the city, this move-in-ready townhome gives you 2 bedrooms, 2.5 baths, flexible bonus space AND a 2-car tandem garage-with Plaza Midwood, NoDa and Uptown all just minutes away. And the inside may surprise you. The main level is open, bright and easy to live in, with modern finishes and plenty of room to cook, entertain or just spread out. Upstairs, both bedrooms have their own private baths, while the lower-level bonus room handles whatever your current season of life requires: office, gym, guest space, studio or storage for all the things apartment living never seems to have room for. The garage means no hunting for street parking, scraping ice off the windshield or hauling groceries across an apartment lot. Kilborne Park and Evergreen Nature Preserve are nearby when you need some green space, and some of Charlotte's best-known neighborhoods, restaurants, coffee and nightlife are a short drive away. Is this the same setting as a $500K townhome a few miles down the road? Nope. But that's also kind of the point. If your priorities are a great home, garage parking, easy access to the city and a monthly investment in something you actually own, this one deserves more than a drive-by. And if the upfront cost of buying has been the thing holding you back, ask about financing options available to qualified buyers. The numbers may look better than you think.
