See inside: The most expensive home in Charlotte, built for late Mattel CEO

Quick background: The home was made for the late Bryan Stockton, the former CEO of Mattel who passed away in 2020. It was designed by architect Ruard Veltman, Whitlock Builders, and interior designers Cindy & Heather Smith.

• Listing agent Aubrey Grier told me they started the careful renovation in 2016.

The exact address is 1508 Dilworth Road. At 5,791 square feet, it has 5 beds and 5.5 baths.

Highlights: Completely custom renovation, 6 fireplaces, sleek kitchen with pops of color, oversized breakfast/dining nook, boutique-inspired walk-in closet, incredible architectural detail, maximum curb appeal.

Indoor-outdoor living: The stunning estate is almost acre and features a pool, separate guest house/flex space, screened-in porch, and gorgeous garden landscaping.

Price tag: At $6.95M, this is the most expensive listing in Charlotte right now, and if it receives full asking price, it’ll be the largest sale on Charlotte record.

• The second-most expensive home in Dilworth, 723 Mount Vernon, just went under contract for $3.59M. It was on and off the market for 9 months, first listed in May 2020 for $3.75M.
• Most sales in the neighborhood haven’t exceeded $2M.
