JANE SCHWAB ~ DESIGN IN NORTH CAROLINA

This historic home in Charlotte, North Carolina has been around since1917, and when the Myers Park house was finally put on the market in 1989, principle of Circa Interiors and Antiques Jane Schwab saw the true beauty of the home and bought it. Schwab lightened the walls, took down the gaudy draperies which grace the eleven foot tall windows, and covered her French antiques with more family-friendly yet rich fabrics.

Jane Schwab is a wife, mother of three children, and two boxers.  What she created is a beautiful home that is not only family friendly, but sophisticated enough to host philanthropic events for a number of guests for dinner and cocktails.  ENJOY!

    My in-laws live in Charlotte, not far from Myers Park. Perhaps next time I'm down there, I'll ask if we can locate this house for a drive-by. :)

    Beautiful post of an absolutely beautiful home! If it matters, Charlotte is in North Carolina, not South Carolina.
