About this home
Charming Chantilly cottage filled with timeless character and thoughtful updates throughout that lives well beyond the square footage suggests! Set on a spacious 0.295-acre lot just steps from Chantilly Park and Ecological Sanctuary, this beautifully maintained 3 bed / 2 bath home features 1,320 prime square feet of inviting living space, PLUS a highly-usable finished attic space that makes for an incredible flex room (not counted in the home's square footage) as well as a gorgeous 352 square foot four-season porch that has ample additional space for year-round lounging and dining. Inside, enjoy a welcoming living room centered around a cozy gas fireplace, a stylish dining room ready for hosting and entertaining, and a well-equipped kitchen boasting classic white cabinetry, granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, and a spacious pantry. Three bedrooms, including a serene primary suite with an en-suite bathroom and closet built-ins, and a shared guest bathroom round out the main level. Elegant architectural details including narrow plank hardwood floors, arched doorways, crown molding, and glass doorknobs add to the home’s appeal. Outside, the four-season porch (built in 2023) has Eze-Breeze windows that can easily open to a screened porch for warmer days and a gas fireplace for those cooler nights. The lush, fully fenced yard offers even more room to roam with an open air deck, fire pit area, and a functional storage shed nestled among lovely landscaping and mature trees. 512 Bascom St. is well-maintained inside and out —including a recently replaced roof (2025) — and boasts an unbeatable location in the heart of Chantilly close to parks, restaurants, and shops in Plaza Midwood and Elizabeth. A rare opportunity to revel in the best that neighborhood charm and urban convenience can offer!

Chantilly, located between Elizabeth and Plaza Midwood, is a historic and residential Charlotte neighborhood with tree-lined streets and early-20th-century bungalows. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Central Avenue and Pecan Avenue corridor, where corner storefronts, patios, and steady foot traffic set a lived-in, local rhythm. Midwood Smokehouse anchors the dining scene with a casual, smoke-and-brick atmosphere. Common Market Plaza Midwood adds a neighborhood-grocery feel with coffee counters and sidewalk chatter. Independence Park and the Little Sugar Creek Greenway shape daily routines with shaded paths and open lawns.
