About this home
Welcome to 511 Ligon Street, where upgraded living meets the charm and slower pace of Shelby! Located just five minutes from Uptown Shelby, this beautifully finished 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath home offers approximately 1,900 square feet of thoughtfully designed living space on 0.15 acres. Inside, you'll immediately notice the difference between this home and typical builder-grade construction. The bright, open floor plan creates an easy flow between the kitchen, dining, and living areas, while an electric fireplace adds a cozy focal point to the main living space. Thoughtful upgrades continue throughout the home, including beautiful custom closets and ceiling fans in every bedroom. A one-car garage provides additional parking and storage, while the fully fenced backyard offers a private space for pets, play, entertaining, or simply relaxing outdoors. The location makes this home even more special. Just minutes away, Downtown Shelby offers local restaurants, coffee shops, boutiques, community events, and beautiful historic architecture. Shelby is also known for its rich local culture and music history, including the Earl Scruggs Center, while nearby parks, trails, Kings Mountain State Park, and Crowders Mountain State Park provide plenty of opportunities to enjoy the outdoors. For those who want a quieter alternative to the Charlotte metro, Shelby offers the opportunity to enjoy more breathing room without feeling disconnected. Gastonia, Kings Mountain, Charlotte, Charlotte Douglas International Airport, sporting events, concerts, and major employment centers throughout the region are all within driving distance, while everyday shopping, dining, healthcare, and necessities are conveniently available closer to home. If you're looking for more home, more breathing room, and a slower pace without sacrificing modern finishes or convenience, 511 Ligon Street is ready to welcome you home.
