VanLandingham Estate is a two-story residence with wood shingles, a terra cotta tile roof, and stone piers framing the entry, set within designed gardens in the Plaza Midwood neighborhood. The property spans several hectares and combines residential architecture with professional landscape elements.
The house was built between 1913 and 1914 during a period of economic growth in Charlotte. Its recognition by the National Register of Historic Places in 1983 acknowledged its architectural importance to the region.
The grounds display early 20th-century garden design principles still evident today in how visitors move through the outdoor spaces. The arranged plantings and pathways show regional horticultural traditions that guests can observe while exploring the property.
The property operates as a private bed and breakfast and event venue today, limiting walk-through access for general visitors. Visitors interested in seeing the house and grounds should inquire in advance about viewing opportunities and any public tour schedules.
The estate has served as a filming location for various productions, giving it a second life on screen over recent decades. This film presence has helped keep the property in public awareness.
