Southern Shelby County
Spacious houses give residents room to grow
Southern Shelby County homes come in classic styles, including ranches, neo-colonials and modern farmhouses with three or more bedrooms. Most homes were built in the 1990s and early 2000s as part of large developments; many have large windows, gabled roofs and eclectic brick or stone siding. According to Harris, the neighborhood offers large lots, ranging from 1 to more than 10 acres. The price range is about $250,000 to around $675,000, though some higher priced properties can approach $1 million. Those properties, typically, are on larger lots with bedrooms and square footage exceeding the neighborhood norms.Retail favorites along Winchester Road
Most of the county’s shopping happens along Winchester Road, where big box department stores and chain restaurants line the street running east and west. The selection includes Lowe’s, Burlington, Starbucks and more. Residents have plenty of grocery options, with supermarkets including Costco, Kroger, Sam’s Club and Walmart clustered within 1 mile of each other. Hickory Ridge Mall and Shopping Center nearby has additional clothing stores, salons and dining establishments. For a taste of the Southern community, foodies go to Huey’s. From June to October, locals flock to the Winchester Farmers Market to buy fresh produce at the Winchester Town Common. Vendors from around the county come to sell locally grown fruits, vegetables, canned goods and more. The Winchester Town Commons also hosts seasonal and holiday markets in the off-season.Early college education is offered at Shelby County Schools
Students may attend Shelby County School District schools, including Southwind Elementary, Highland Oaks Middle and Kirby High School. All three received at least a C-minus grade from Niche. Kirby High School offers college and career preparatory options through its Early Post Secondary Opportunities program, which includes Advanced Placement, Dual Enrollment and International Baccalaureate certifications and courses. Students can also earn industry certifications and qualify for the Industry 4.0 Diploma Distinction upon graduation.Acres of fun abound at Mike Rose Soccer Complex
Mike Rose Soccer Complex is a county facility featuring 16 soccer fields. The complex hosts tournaments and provides camps, clinics and year-round soccer leagues for all ages. Golfers can hone their skills at various courses in the area, including Windyke Country Club, which offers tennis courts, pickleball courts and a swimming pool in addition to three golf courses.According to Harris, events and performances at the Germantown Community Theater are another local draw. The theater offers varied productions, spanning from comedies and dramas to musicals and children’s plays, with winter holiday shows in December.
