720 Clement Ave, Charlotte, NC, 28204

This 1926 bungalow on Clement Avenue captures the reassuring geometry of early-20th-century craftsmanship while offering a practical set of modern upgrades. Enter through a welcoming front porch into a living room anchored by original, recently refinished hardwood floors that continue through the main entertaining spaces. The owners have refreshed the interior with a neutral paint palette and updated light fixtures, so historic details read as warm and current rather than dated.

The heart of the house is a functional, open kitchen enhanced with a newly added island — a subtle but impactful change that improves daily use and entertaining. Bathrooms were refreshed and the home now benefits from a new HVAC system, a dehumidifier, and an encapsulated crawlspace, all improvements that reduce maintenance concerns and increase long-term comfort. Practical systems meet period character: generous room proportions, tall ceilings and original millwork give the house its distinctive personality.

Out back, a large, flat yard with installed turf creates a low-maintenance entertaining environment and room for gardens, play, or an outdoor dining setup. A detached, one-car garage is a standout asset here — the owner can share plans to build living space above it, or it can remain a flexible workshop/parking solution as-is. This property balances an easy-to-own yard with the opportunity for additional square footage if desired.

Positioned in Elizabeth, one of Charlotte’s most walkable close-in neighborhoods, the home enjoys tree-lined streets and a short ride to Uptown’s offices, restaurants and cultural attractions. With 3 bedrooms, 2.5 baths and 2,155 finished square feet, this bungalow suits buyers seeking historic character plus recent mechanical and cosmetic updates. The list price aligns with the home’s strong per-square-foot valuation, making it an attractive offering for someone looking to combine turn-key systems with the potential to customize and expand.
