Hamilton Major of Shelbyville is a wonderful new home community with homes for sale nestled in the heart of downtown Shelbyville, IN – and within walking distance to beautiful downtown shops and restaurants.  This community and location embody the simple life with all the conveniences and access you expect from a big city. The exclusivity of this quaint community make Hamilton Major an ideal place to live. Relax in the evenings in homes ranging up to 3,000 square feet.   All aspects of the Hamilton Major Place subdivision are purposefully chosen to complement and enhance the historic character that is present in the surrounding residential neighborhood. This is very evident in the street and lot configuration. The original alignment of West Franklin Street, which had previously been abandoned to make room for Major Hospital, is now re-established. Similar to the original platted configuration of the neighborhood, when possible, the home lots are “alley-loaded”. This means that, when possible, the lots will have access to their garages from the alley on the back of the property. Lot sizes are based off of the nearby existing homes and designed to maintain the urban-residential character already present in the neighborhood.
