About 1008 S Shelby St
If you were to look up the word charming in the dictionary, you'd find a picture of this home in Shelby Park! Situated in one of Louisville's most up and coming areas, you'll be able to enjoy amazing area staples, like Logan St Market [2 blocks away], Fleur de Flea, and Hammerheads [both less than 1/2 mile away]. When you aren't out enjoying the sights or restaurants, sit back on your front porch and have a glass of wine, or cup of coffee. Inside, you'll love the gorgeous hardwood floors, the tall ceilings, and spacious rooms. Need storage? You'll have PLENTY in the unfinished basement/cellar area - and it's even tall enough to walk around in without having to crouch! A fully fenced yard lets kids and pets alike enjoy the outdoors, and a private alley allows for future off street parking.
