A One-Owner Home Full of Space and Heart
When the current owners first bought 1300 Shelby Court, they were immediately drawn to the “large lot size” and the fact that “there was plenty of space between our neighbor.” Situated on a corner lot in a quiet cul-de-sac, this home not only offers extra outdoor space, but also the benefit of having just one adjacent neighbor.
Nestled in a friendly, established neighborhood in Wylie, TX, this property combines space, convenience, and a strong sense of community. “Everyone is really friendly and personable. We all help look out for each other,” the owners shared. It’s a place where neighbors become friends, and summer afternoons often include time spent at the community pool and playground.
