The Tatum

The Tatum is an apartment community at 6619 Yateswood Dr, Charlotte, NC 28212 with one- and two-bedroom homes. If Eastland Community Transit Center, the former Eastland Mall, or Eastland Yards redevelopment is part of your search, verify current Charlotte Area Transit System service and compare it with your actual routine.

Use the current CATS trip planner to check the route, transfer points, service hours, and return trip that apply to your work, school, shopping, or appointments. Recheck that information before deciding whether transit meets your needs.

Map routes using Yateswood Drive, Albemarle Road, Central Avenue, Sharon Amity Road, Eastway Drive, and U.S. 74, also known as Independence Boulevard. Check current travel options to Charlotte Douglas International Airport and UNC Charlotte if either destination matters to your schedule.

Ask which layouts are currently offered, including whether the A1 and A2 one-bedroom plans and the B1 two-bedroom plan are available. Tour the exact home to compare its room arrangement, storage, furniture placement, and proposed lease terms with your needs.

During a tour, ask whether the pool, courtyards, grills, outdoor kitchen, deck, clothes care centers, pet stations, parking, and maintenance request process are currently available. Confirm applicable access rules, parking arrangements, pet policies, and service procedures before applying.

Ask which features are included in the exact home, including closets, patio or balcony, exterior storage, blinds, dishwasher, cabinet storage, fireplace, linen closet, vaulted ceiling, washer and dryer, and built-in microwave. Confirm the condition and any limitations for the features that matter to you.

Compare transit, driving, rideshare, and walking options against the trips you expect to make. If a commute is time-sensitive, check the relevant route and service information for the days and hours you expect to travel.

Contact The Tatum or schedule a tour to inspect the exact home, review the offered layout and lease terms, and confirm current feature, transportation, and move-in details before applying.
