Built in 1989 and set on a low-traffic Shelby Street lot with alley access, this 2-bedroom, 1.5-bath home delivers more living space than most New Albany alternatives in this price range. The layout is open and light-filled, with laminate flooring and crown molding running through the main level and a large picture window anchoring the living room. The kitchen flows easily into the living area, making the first floor feel connected rather than compartmentalized. A half-bath on the main level handles daily practicality, keeping guests and family out of the upstairs bath. Both bedrooms are genuinely large. Not "fits a queen and a dresser" large -- the kind of large where you have options for layout. Each sits upstairs with fresh carpet, ample closet space, and a full shared bath. Out back, the wood deck with sliding glass door access is the home's personality. It's private, fenced on the side, and fully functional for outdoor dining or a quiet evening. The detached 1-car garage sits at the rear of the lot with alley access and additional off-street parking alongside -- enough room to accommodate a second vehicle, a trailer, or both. Located minutes from downtown New Albany, the Ohio River Greenway, and quick interstate access to Louisville, this is a commuter-friendly address with genuine outdoor living built in.
