Established in 1897, Elizabeth is the second oldest streetcar suburb in Charlotte. Given its close proximity to Upton, Elizabeth became one of the most fashionable residential areas in Charlotte in its early days.
Because much of the neighborhood was developed in the early 20th century, Elizabeth's trees have had time to mature. They now form a canopy over most of Elizabeth's residential streets. In addition, Elizabeth is more pedestrian-friendly than most Charlotte neighborhoods, businesses and residences are in close proximity, and most roads have sidewalks.
One of the many advantages of staying in Elizabeth is its unbeatable location. Situated just minutes away from Uptown Charlotte, you'll have easy access to the city's top attractions, cultural landmarks, and exciting entertainment options.

Lovely Spot in Great Walking Location to Restaurants
My wife and I stayed here for 2 weeks while trying to find a neighborhood to move to in Charlotte. We liked the area so much, we moved in just down the street. Our favorite part of this place was the lovely 2nd floor balcony/patio and we spent a lot of time there people watching. The home is lovely, in a quiet area, and close to restaurants and bars in Elizabeth and Plaza Midwood.
It would have been nice to have more toilet paper, trash bags, and paper towels for a 2 week stay. We ran out fairly quickly and had to run to the Harris Teeter nearby.

GREAT PLACE AND SERVICE
This is such a unique apartment. Although only one bedroom and bath it is very spacious and you actually feel like you are in a small home. Love the outside terrace and watching all the walkers and their dogs! A great place to unwind after a day working or whatever. The management team is very responsive and although the internet went down for a short-time (not their fault and outage in the area), they kept us updated until all was good. Loved that the owner left such nice snacks and wine and felt appreciated. Very convenient to wherever you need to head out too and we will surely be back!

ACC Championship Football
Used VRBO for my 2nd time to go to the ACC Championship game. I can say we couldn't have made a better decision where to stay. The apartment was spotless and very well made up. Jim left us a very nice note offering snacks/adult beverages etc that they left for us. Everything we needed to know was spelled out perfectly beforehand and in our letter. The neighborhood was charming and completely safe. We were a very easy 5 or 6 minute drive to downtown. We did Uber Friday night which was easy and inexpensive. My wife and I couldn't recommend this property enough. Our only complaint/disappointment was that we didn't have enough time to check out some of the restaurants in the neighborhood. That was on us and will not happen again the next time we get down to Charlotte. No question in our minds where we will stay.

We love staying at this location in Charlotte, the best pizza is down the road and great shopping a walk away at Envy. The place is fabulous, so cute and the porch is most enjoyable. We recommend it to everyone, hotels are not the way to enjoy a city, actually living in the city is the only way.

Quirky old building in an excellent location- I'm in the charlotte area often, and for the first time, my residence was walkable to stores and dining. Quiet street close to the action. Charlie was a welcoming and accommodating host; not at all intrusive, yet only a text or phone call away.
We loved the snacks and bar too! I will definitely seek out another home collection property for my next stay!

Gem in the Queen City
*Clean apartment and very comfortable king size bed. Had all of the amenities of a hotel room with extra added comforts and treats:
- Wine and snacks on the counter & fridge, Apple TV, and Free Wifi.
* In walking distance to several restaurants and bars; we tried Customshop, the Elizabeth Creamery, and Cajun Queen.
* We were a group of three walking all around the neighborhoods. I felt comfortable walking around during the day alone, but I would be more vigilant at night around the apartment.
* Ventured further out by driving to the 7th street Market, Amelie's bakery, and the US National Whitewater Center for a full day of hiking.
*** Perfect for a home base while visiting Charlotte.
