Queens Road West Home Selected for MMAE’s
2016 HOLIDAY HOUSE
Home for the Holidays Will Open for Public Tours
Mecklenburg Medical Alliance & Endowment (MMAE) has selected the historic Queens Road West home of Robert and Dr. Elizabeth Rostan as its 2016 Holiday House. Some
of Charlotte’s finest interior designers, florists, landscape designers and home décor retailers will decorate the home for the holidays, and it will be open for tours November 4-6.
The stately Georgian/Colonial home at 1870 Queens Road West was built in 1951 by James Castanas, an immigrant from Greece who founded the
Epicurean Restaurant. Before it closed in the 1990s, the Epicurean was known as one of the oldest restaurants in Charlotte, having operated continuously for five decades.
One of the elements Castanas had installed in select rooms was ornate Greek key plaster molding. It remains today and is a key feature in the living and dining rooms.
In 1956, Castanas sold the house to Bill Berkely, MD, and his family who lived there for 40 years. Dr. Berkely was one of the founders of Charlotte Plastic Surgery.
In 2006, Robert and Dr. Elizabeth Rostan purchased the home and oversaw extensive remodeling and expansion. Today, the home is 5,100 square feet and features
four bedrooms and five and a half baths. It was recognized with the Myers Park Homeowner’s Association Preservation Award in 2009.
The 2016 Holiday House will open for public tours November 4-5 from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., and November 6 from noon to 5 p.m.
Tickets will be available beginning October 1 at all Blacklion locations and online at MMAEonline.com.
All Holiday House proceeds directly fund annual community health grants through the MMAE Endowment. In May, MMAE distributed $69,000 to
11 Charlotte-Mecklenburg agencies including Care Ring, Hospitality House, N.C. MedAssist and The Relatives. For a complete list of grant recipients and additional information
