Live oaks frame the roadways to numerous subdivisions
Cradling nature preserves and wildlife conservation areas, Southeast Tallahassee attracts homebuyers for its natural beauty and relaxed way of life. “The neighborhood is surrounded by really pretty canopy roads,” says Mandy O’Callaghan, a Realtor with Clover Key Realty and a 25-year resident of Tallahassee. These roads, framed by the overhanging branches of live oaks, lead to various subdivisions within the neighborhood. “It’s more of a quiet residential area and close to downtown. It’s also close to Florida State University,” says O’Callaghan. “We get a lot of professors and FSU coaches because it's a quick commute.” The primary commercial corridor through the neighborhood is the east-west Apalachee Parkway.
