$450,000 Active

Nearly a third of an acre in Madison Park, and a 1952 brick ranch that works two ways. Inside, hardwood floors run through the living room and all three bedrooms, and the kitchen has stainless appliances, a tile backsplash and stacked laundry by the back door. Out back, a concrete patio and a brick paver sitting area look out over a deep backyard shaded by mature hardwoods, and a covered front porch is a nice spot for morning coffee. It's a smart first step into a close-in Charlotte neighborhood for a first-time buyer, with room to garden, play or add on down the road. For a builder or a buyer with a bigger plan, the 0.29-acre lot with N1-B zoning sits in a pocket where nearby original ranches have made way for new construction. Move in now, renovate over time, or build new. Minutes to Park Road Shopping Center, SouthPark and Uptown.
