PROPERTY OVERVIEW

Set behind the private gates of Greenwood, one of Charlotte's most exclusive hidden communities off Providence Road, this Mediterranean estate stands as a true legacy property, poised to rank among the most significant residential offerings in Charlotte's history. Built by renowned builder Kaleel Builders and designed by celebrated Florida architect Don Evans, the estate has been shaped by two full rounds of renovation, each elevating its craftsmanship to an extraordinary level. Five and a half private, gated acres in the heart of Providence Plantation afford a rare sense of seclusion rarely found so close to the city.

Spanning 12,906 square feet of heated living space across two levels, the residence unfolds room by room with hand-carved and glazed detailing, ornate moldings, and arched doorways carrying its Mediterranean architecture throughout. A dramatic great room, anchored by a living coral reef aquarium, and a chef's kitchen set the tone for the main level, while a private primary suite wing indulges with a cedar sauna, dual designer closets, and spa-caliber baths finished in marble and gold. Bold black-and-white checkerboard marble threads through the primary wing, a graphic signature that recurs throughout the home's most refined spaces. Upstairs, a full theater room, additional guest suites, and a private guest apartment offer space for family and guests alike, while two showroom-caliber garages provide a fitting stage for a serious car collection. Beyond the walls, the grounds transform into a private resort, complete with a pool, spa, outdoor kitchen, sport court, and a wooded quarter-mile walking trail.

Just moments from Charlotte's top public and private schools, SouthPark, the Arboretum Shopping Center, and Waverly, with an easy commute to Uptown Charlotte off Providence Road, this estate offers a rare convergence of privacy, prestige, and location. This is an extraordinary opportunity to own one of Charlotte's most consequential estates.

MAIN LEVEL

Entryway & Foyer

A covered vestibule welcomes guests through dramatic iron doors, flanked by dual fountains set into arched, tile-lined cutouts. Enter the home through the arched wood front doors into the foyer featuring a dramatic 14' groin vault ceiling and grand chandelier framed by Corinthian-style columns and tiled flooring.

Great Room

This great room is the architectural heart of the home, anchored by a dramatic 16' coffered ceiling with hand-painted medallions and gilded trim, illuminated by ornate crystal chandeliers. A stone fireplace with a hand-forged iron screen anchors one end of the room, framed by antique tapestry panels and flanked by arched windows overlooking the loggia and pool terrace. Opposite the fireplace, a floor-to-ceiling saltwater aquarium is built directly into the wall, its glowing coral reef serving as a living art installation. Decorative coral wall sculptures and Chinoiserie-inspired wall panels add further texture throughout the space.

Living Room

Located off the foyer, a wood coffered ceiling and arched doorway design set the tone for this room, centered on a gas fireball fireplace with an ornate mantle. Iron-paneled windows, designer sconces, and three wall-mounted picture-frame televisions add both grandeur and function, while custom built-ins with integrated lighting and a built-in bench surround the sitting area. The custom bar area is outfitted with a Sub-Zero wine and beverage fridge, a Kohler sink with gold fixtures, and seating for two, making it a natural gathering spot. A built-in safe is also discreetly incorporated into the room.

Dining Room + Butler's Pantry

A Venetian plaster ceiling with ornate decorative moldings sets a formal tone in this room. The centerpiece is a dramatic hand-carved limestone fireplace, its mantel supported by carved caryatid figures and detailed with floral imagery and a central medallion. Hand-painted and glazed faux marble panels line the wainscoting, and a custom-painted wall with wall art lighting complete the room beneath a statement chandelier. Connecting to the main kitchen, the butler's pantry features granite countertops, a wet sink, and an icemaker, making this the perfect staging area for entertaining. Glass display cabinet trim and a tile backsplash add polish, with lower cabinetry and drawer storage for everyday function.

A newly updated pantry provides additional everyday storage.

Half Bath

Positioned between the dining room and great room, this powder room features stone countertops and an artist-edition Kohler sink with painted hardware. An antiqued, smoked-glass mirror with hand-carved wood framing makes a statement, while the private water closet is finished in fabric wallpaper with antique wood wainscoting.

Keeping Room + Patio

Just off the kitchen, the keeping room offers built-in shelving and drawer storage for everyday overflow, along with tiled counters and glass display cabinetry with integrated lighting. It opens directly onto a covered outdoor patio, where dual wood-burning fireplaces and wrought iron wall grilles create a warm, layered backdrop on a terra cotta patio beyond, perfect for al fresco gatherings.

Game Room

A hand-painted graffiti mural, created by a local artist, sets a playful tone for this vaulted space. Nine game stations, including basketball, skeeball, racing, dancing, golf, pinball, and arcade games, are joined by Samsung televisions, an electric fireplace, and a designer light fixture. Accessible from both the game room and the backyard, a full bath features stone counters, a porcelain sink with black hardware, and a shower and tub combination.

PRIMARY SUITE WING

Primary Bedroom

The primary bedroom is a study in French-inspired grandeur, anchored by a dramatic tray ceiling with hand-carved plaster moldings and a multi-tier crystal chandelier overhead. A tufted, cushioned canopy rises behind the ornately carved bed frame, framed by flowing drapery that echoes the room's soft, layered palette. Mirrored closet panels and ornate gilded mirror surrounds line the walls, doubling as a hidden storage feature while amplifying the room's light and scale, and a hidden television panel keeps technology discreetly out of view. A gas fireplace with a hand-carved stone mantel anchors a separate sitting area, where tufted chaise lounges and armchairs create a private retreat for morning coffee or evening unwinding, all set beneath the same intricate crown detail found throughout the suite. French doors on two sides open directly to the pool and grounds, filling the room with natural light and easy outdoor access. A wet sink area with a built-in fridge sits discreetly within the room's cabinetry, adding everyday convenience without disrupting the formal aesthetic. Black-and-white checkerboard marble flooring runs throughout, grounding the room's ornate detail with a bold, graphic base.

Bathroom + Closet 1

This gentleman's wing unfolds across a bold black-and-white checkerboard marble floor, framed by sleek, crocodile-embossed black walls throughout.

Two three-car garages flank the home, each transformed into a showroom-worthy space with glossy black speckled epoxy flooring and a striking hexagonal LED lighting design overhead. Each features built-in storage cabinetry, and one includes a built-in commercial-grade refrigerator. Both spaces are as much a display for a serious car collection as they are functional garages.

EXTERIOR

Backyard

The backyard is anchored by a long rectangular pool with playful fountain jets dancing across the surface, framed by a bluestone deck and a sculptural mermaid fountain rising from its own reflecting basin. Beyond the pool, a wide stretch of manicured lawn runs the length of the property, bordered by boxwood hedges and mature trees for total privacy, with a charming Victorian-style playhouse tucked at the far end. Meandering stone and paved pathways lead through the wooded grounds to a tiered stone fountain and a fenced garden with a small greenhouse, while a rustic wooden play structure sits further back among the trees.

Patio

A sweeping colonnaded loggia wraps the back of the home, its graceful arches and columns framing multiple outdoor living areas for lounging, dining, and entertaining. An outdoor television, a long dining table, and cushioned seating areas are shaded beneath market umbrellas, creating an easy flow between the pool and the home's interior.
