Inn

400 Hermitage Rd, Charlotte, NC

Built in 1915 and later expanded by industrialist James Buchanan Duke, this magnificent 20-room colonial revival mansion operates as a non-profit, fiercely independent boutique oasis. Nestled securely upon 4.5 acres of manicured, century-old gardens right in the historic historic Myers Park neighborhood, the standalone luxury property features dramatic 15-foot ceilings, towering screened porches, and exceptional historic craftsmanship. Delivering a deeply peaceful neighborhood sanctuary completely insulated from the uptown skyline, guests enjoy quiet garden strolls and an exceptional, fresh, scratch-made breakfast served daily.
