Continuing the legacy of the Wadsworth Estate

The Wadsworth Estate was originally built in 1911 as the first home in Wesley Heights. It was designed by Louis H Asbury, a prominent North Carolina architect, and has been designated as a historic landmark. Over the past century, the Wadsworth Estate and its carriage house have served as a central gathering place to serve community, celebrate history and promote a great city in Charlotte, NC.

I hosted a corporate event at the Wadsworth Estate for Newell Rubbermaid. Mark and Alyson went above and beyond to ensure we had everything we needed. Our out of town guests were amazed at the beautiful view of the Charlotte skyline at night. I would highly recommend the Wadsworth Estate to anyone looking to do an event that has an intimate feel in the heart of downtown!

We really enjoyed using the Wadsworth Carriage House. The grounds, the neighborhood, the parking - all contributed to our committee’s great experience while meeting in this historic building. Mark & Alyson are wonderful hosts and they made the whole experience easy.
