About This Home

Welcome to downtown Shelby, where historic charm and modern updates come together in this beautifully renovated brick property. Filled with character and timeless appeal, this unique space offers endless possibilities — whether you are seeking office space, an investment opportunity, or the chance to create something entirely your own.

Currently zoned General Business (GB), the city zoning also permits residential use, offering exceptional flexibility for future owners. The building is presently configured as two office suites, with one side occupied on a short-term lease, but it could easily be converted back into a single residential space.

Rich in history and architectural character, the property is included on the National Register of Historic Places Continuation Sheet, further enhancing its distinctive appeal and connection to the heritage of downtown Shelby. Conveniently located approximately 0.5 miles from US-74 and just outside the Central Shelby Historic District, the property provides easy access to local dining, shopping, and the vibrant energy of downtown living.

Whether you envision a professional office, boutique business, income-producing investment, live/work concept, or charming downtown residence, this versatile property presents a rare opportunity to own a piece of Shelby’s history while enjoying the convenience and growth of one of the area’s most desirable downtown locations.
