Suburban Neighborhood in Charlotte, North Carolina
Mecklenburg County 28203

Feel the pulse of the city
With its idyllic single-family homes and abundance of hip restaurants and bars, Wilmore is situated squarely in Charlotte’s trendy South End. Cocktail bars, breweries, fitness centers and luxury apartment buildings line Camden Road, which runs alongside the Charlotte Rail Trail. A walk along this urban trail leads directly past craft beer hotspots such as Sycamore Brewing and popular restaurants like Leroy Fox, which specializes in Southern fried chicken and Sunday brunch. Pasta & Provisions is a neighborhood gem where patrons can indulge in homemade pasta or pick up frozen to-go meals to feed the whole family. The neighborhood also has several boutique retail stores, many of which are tucked into Atherton Mill, a former textile mill turned high-end shopping destination. This chic shopping center houses name-brand clothiers next to big-box stores such as Publix and Lowe’s, making for easy errand runs close to home.Urban trails and scenic greenways
Revolution Park spans a little over 15 acres and offers a fitness area and indoor recreation center, along with a playground, baseball fields and the Dr. Charles L. Sifford Golf Course, which grants 9 holes on Bermuda Grass. When out for a walk, residents can take in the urban sights along the Charlotte Rail Trail. Or they can hop on the Irwin Creek Greenway to explore wooded walking paths near daffodil gardens and rock formations. Small pocket parks are accessible from either end of the neighborhood and are utilized for community get-togethers. “Starting late summer into fall, we host movie nights at the Wilmore Centennial Park,” Taff says, noting that a variety of events are publicized on the neighborhood association’s Instagram. “We have a neighborhood social committee who hosts Wilmore Wednesdays at Pasta & Provisions, as well as neighborhood park parties at Abbott Park.” Abbott Park’s playground is a popular spot for families, while the athletic field and basketball courts are often occupied by casual pickup games. For indoor recreation, the climbing gym Inner Peaks South End hosts youth and adult teams, camps and classes for all skill levels.Homes in a designated historic district
While most commercial development in Wilmore is modern, a 1930s construction boom created many of the houses lining the neighborhood’s wide, curvy streets. “Anytime you’re going to drive through the neighborhood on a Saturday or Sunday morning, you’ll see families walking with kids, pushing strollers, walking with dogs,” Feehley says. Charlotte designated Wilmore as a historic district in 2005, which Feehley says was a blessing and a curse for homeowners. Although many houses have gone through interior remodeling, exterior changes must go through historical approval. “There’s so much history to the neighborhood,” says Feehley. “The homes have so much character.” Taff agrees: “Because we are located within the historic district, we all have front porches, and we very much make the most of them.” Charming bungalows are signature to the area, though many two-story remodels and newly-built homes have a distinct farmhouse character. Depending on condition, older homes can list from $350,000 to $700,000, while newly built and heavily renovated houses can be priced from $750,000 to $1.3 million. Townhouses typically sell for between $500,000 and $800,000.Get around on foot or by light rail
All homes in Wilmore are within a mile of a Lynx Blue Line light rail stop. For a more leisurely trip Uptown, residents can reach Center City landmarks such as the Bank of America Stadium in a roughly 1-mile stroll from this conveniently located and walkable enclave. Wilmore is also tucked into the curve of the I-77 and I-277 interchange, making it easy to travel around the wider Charlotte region.Service-oriented education
Students in Wilmore attend Dilworth Elementary School at two campuses: Sedgefield for prekindergarten through second grade, rated C-plus by Niche, then Latta for third through fifth grades, rated A-minus. Sedgefield Middle School, rated B-minus, offers coursework on aviation mechanics. Students at Myers Park High, an A-rated school, can join the Interact Club, a service-oriented group that has been part of the school for 60 years.
