The drive time is not that much different.
If you have ever tried to drive anywhere in Charlotte or any other large city, you understand the frustration of being stuck in slow to almost standing still traffic, all to go a short distance! Here are just a few points to consider why a drive to Shelby is not so bad.
- It’s no more time than driving to or from the Lake Norman area (and at least you are moving most of the time and not sitting still on 77!)
- If you plan your trip after the morning rush hour and before the afternoon rush hour, it is less than an hour from the Myers Park area.
- Our process is more efficient. Since we have all the products in the showroom and offer “live design”, we can accomplish a great deal with one trip to our showroom. Other showrooms that don’t provide real-time design can lead to multiple trips, and your project can drag out for weeks.
Many of our clients will tell us that they enjoyed the drive to Shelby because it was a nice break from the hustle and bustle of the big city. Plus, we have some of the world’s best BBQ at Red Bridges Barbecue Lodge, or maybe you prefer their rival Alston Bridges BBQ, yes, it is a local ‘battle of the BBQ.’ You can always find hidden treasures in a small town, so be sure to plan your trip with plenty of time to explore Uptown Shelby. or maybe make plans to stay the weekend, we promise you will have a great experience, read here to learn more.

We understand what works and what doesn’t in a home, and we also know how to create a design that blends all your wants and needs into a perfect balance.
