The Mayes House at 435 East Morehead Street offers a rare opportunity to lease office space inside one of Charlotte’s most recognizable historic buildings. Built circa 1902 and individually listed on the National Register of Historic Places, the Shingle Style landmark is the sole remaining turn of the century house from Charlotte’s old Second Ward. Ownership is completing a comprehensive renovation of the entire property and will occupy one floor. The incoming tenant may choose which floor they prefer to lease.
Options are the ±2,590 SF first floor or the ±1,918 SF second floor. Each floor delivers private offices, a dedicated conference room, and private restrooms. The first floor adds a reception area, formal entry lobby, kitchenette, covered porch, and ADA accessible ramp entry. Dedicated on site parking is included, a rare advantage on a corridor where structured parking is typically charged separately. Potential monument signage on East Morehead provides street identity and branding presence for the tenant.

The renovation preserves every historically designated element. Original hardwood floors are being restored. Twenty six decorative light fixtures, including chandeliers, wall sconces, and pendants, are being removed, protected, and reinstalled. Fireplaces and mantels, original mosaic and tile work, interior millwork, mirrors, and period door hardware all remain in place, and existing windows are being refurbished rather than replaced. Modern systems are brought fully current with new LED lighting, low voltage and A/V infrastructure, new plumbing fixtures, addition of kitchenette, and a complete interior repaint.
