$6.2M ‘Baby Biltmore’ mansion tops list of priciest local home sales

CHARLOTTE — A mansion in the exclusive, gated neighborhood of Seven Eagles in south Charlotte registered as Mecklenburg County’s most expensive home sale in February after trading for $6.2 million.

That French Chateauesque-style home, dubbed in its listing as the “Baby Biltmore” for its resemblance to the historic Biltmore estate in Asheville, sold on Feb. 9. At nearly 13,000 square feet, it houses seven bedrooms, eight full bathrooms and three half-bathrooms, with additional features such as a dual staircase in the foyer, a theater room and wet bar, and a full gym.

The 1.1-acre property, on the 8400 block of Eagle Glen, includes a pool and cabana that overlook the seventh tee of the Quail Hollow Club golf course.

In addition to being the county’s most expensive residential sale in February, the home is near the top of the charts overall in Mecklenburg.

Each month, the CBJ rounds up Mecklenburg County’s most expensive home sales based on a review of county real estate records and Realtor.com. Additional details often come from the listing brokerage.

Homes found on the February list range in price from $2.4 million to the $6.2 million sale in Seven Eagles. Other local neighborhoods where the homes are located include Myers Park, Cotswold and Old Foxcroft in Charlotte, as well as The Peninsula and Point Largo in Cornelius — both of which front Lake Norman.
