Queens Grant

Charlotte City, Mecklenburg County, NC

Quuens Grant is a residential neighborhood of ranch homes built primarily from 1955 through 1959.

Queens Grant [&daghger;] was developed in the 1950s as part of the broader Stonehaven neighborhood, which encompasses several subdivisions, including Queens Grant, Olde Stonehaven, Rama Woods, Waverly Hall, and Medearis. The neighborhood emerged during Charlotte’s post-World War II suburban expansion, driven by the city’s growth as a textile and trade hub. Bounded by Rama Road to the northwest, Sardis Road to the southwest, McAlpine Creek to the southeast, and Monroe Road to the northeast, Queens Grant reflects mid-20th-century suburban planning with single-family homes designed for middle-class families. Its ranch-style homes were built to accommodate the era’s growing car culture and demand for spacious lots. The area has maintained its appeal due to its proximity to uptown Charlotte (about 7 miles) and access to good schools, like East Mecklenburg High, McClintock Middle, and Rama Road Elementary, as well as private schools such as Charlotte Christian and Charlotte Preparatory. Over time, Queens Grant has remained a stable, family-friendly community, attracting buyers for its affordability compared to pricier nearby areas like Myers Park.
