4900 Cricklewood Ln., Charlotte, NC 28212

Take a look at this well-maintained 3-bedroom, 2-bath ranch on a 0.34-acre lot in Vernedale Farms, an established East Charlotte neighborhood off Sharon Amity Road. Under 5 miles to Plaza Midwood, about 5 miles to NoDa and about 8 miles to Uptown. No HOA. Inside you'll find 1,424 heated sq ft, all on one floor. The living room centers on a stone wood-burning fireplace and opens to the dining area and kitchen, with a center island, white cabinets, tile backsplash and stainless steel appliances. The primary bedroom has French doors to the backyard, and both baths have been updated with matte black fixtures. A mud room off the garage adds everyday convenience. The current owners added fiber cement siding and put on a new roof in 2020. Relax on the rocking-chair front porch, or step out back to a deck that leads down to a patio. The backyard is beautifully landscaped with an edible garden: mature, productive pear trees, two fig trees, hazelnuts and blackberries, plus raised garden beds and a gravel garden path. Outbuilding in back. The attached garage was originally two-car (19'6" x 20'10"); a prior owner turned one corner into a mud room/pantry hallway into the kitchen, which also put the laundry inside the house. It now fits one car plus storage or workshop space.
