About this home

Beautiful Country Retreat 148 Rolling Acres in Shelby presents the perfect escape. Beautiful live oak trees set the scene for the 4 BD/3.5 BA modern house. The open concept of the kitchen, living, and dining area provides a great space for entertaining. The bedroom layout gives the house the ability to easily transition from having family over to friends. Can you imagine sleeping right next to the stars? The house features a second story screened sleeping porch. All rooms of the house enjoy views down the hillside and open meadow to the creek. The deck with fire pit area provides perfect outdoor entertaining space. There are two barns on the property to provide plenty outdoor storage capability. The property features a natural spring, multiple ponds, and Mill Creek. The land is great for free ranging wildlife, livestock, hay production, and recreational possibilities. Agricultural exemption is in place on the property.
