Collinswood Homes – Affordable Ranchers Just Minutes from the Light Rail Attractions
Collinswood homes comprise a sweet little enclave of one-story brick ranch homes about 6 miles south of Uptown. It is perfectly situated along the Lynx light rail for quick access to the restaurants and cultural offerings in Historic South End and Uptown — try Food Truck Friday on Camden Road. And don’t miss the Olde Mecklenberg Brewery with its German-style brews and beer garden.
In the other direction is the ‘50s-era Park Road Shopping Center. This recently updated neighborhood classic is a one-stop shop for dining, movies, coffee shops plus you can take care of your practical needs at Blackhawk Hardware and Harris Teeter. From there you are steps from the Little Sugar Creek Greenway and Freedom Park.
In Collinswood you will meet your neighbors on their daily walks to Collins Park where you’ll enjoy the tennis court, a playground, picnic tables and a playing field. And while you’re there visit the Little Free Library, pictured below.
Large corner lot perfect for new construction. The lot includes a three-bedroom house that could be renovated or repurposed, but the true potential lies in the size and location of the property, offering numerous possibilities for future development. The home has its three bedrooms and one and one-half baths on the main level, and there is also a lower level walkout basement. The basement provides extra space that can be used as a bonus room or workshop. The investment minded buyer will be excited to know that recent developments in the neighborhood on similar corner lots have been either a large single-family home or multi-story duets/duplexes. The upgrades in the neighborhood make this a ground floor opportunity to buy low and either sell, or rent, beautifully designed new homes near the highly desirable South End, and Dilworth, and just minutes to Uptown.
