We've maintained the character of this historic 1920's building, while completely updating and renovating the interior. This second floor condo has large double-hung windows that let in an abundance of light in all the rooms.

Situated in historic Elizabeth, our residence is conveniently located a few steps from Hawthorne Avenue, the heart of Charlotte's health care district. Plaza Midwood and Uptown are a short ride away on the streetcar. Located in the stately Milton apartment building, this recently refurbished second floor condo in the desirable and walkable Elizabeth neighborhood. This incredibly safe community provides an ideal place for walking or jogging and is just a short stroll from Charlotte's most vibrant night life. Within a half mile walking distance are more than 40 locally owned 40 restaurants (Italian, Mexican, Cajun, and Mediterranean). For breakfast, walk past Starbucks and try Central Coffee or Villani's Bakery. Our favorite full-service spots include Customshop (local cuisine), Cajun Queen (Louisiana soul food) and Intermezzo (Italian). If you are looking for local gems, check out The People's Market, Menya Durama (Ramen), and Moo & Brew (burgers). My favorite BBQ joint is Midwood Smokehouse (but this is a touchy subject in the crossroads of BBQ). Have a beer at Legion Brewery, a drink at the infamous Thirsty Beaver (Mick Jagger's favorite spot), or a cocktail at the Crunkleton. On the 'Plaza Piazza,' you will find many locally owned shops including antiques, fine gifts, wines, and bespoke clothing for men and women. Elizabeth is also a neighborhood with a vibrant nightlife. If you're looking for an exciting place to stay in Charlotte, you've come to the right place. Just down the street is Independence Park, Charlotte's oldest park. This newly renovated park has miles of wide sidewalks, towering trees, a playground, picnic areas, and garden respites. Charlotte's renowned greenway is less than a half mile away. From there, you can bike, run, or walk along the 30 miles of trails. The parks and open walking spaces make the area perfect for those with a furry friend. Well-behaved, quiet pets are allowed in most of our properties with a pet fee. Many of our neighborhood restaurants have patios that welcome dogs.
