Garden City Homes for Sale

Garden City has evolved from a rural community into a suburban neighborhood with a small-town feel. Situated at the base of Mill Mountain, it features a mix of one-story houses, 1920s bungalows, 1950s ranch-style homes and early 2000s Minimal Traditional homes. The area is renowned for its outdoor activities, with the Garden City Greenway providing a 2-mile trail that connects to the Roanoke River Greenway and the Garden City Recreation Center. Mill Mountain's Star Trail has scenic hikes past the illuminated Roanoke Star and the Mill Mountain Zoo. Garden City Park, adjacent to the elementary school, includes a playground and a lighted baseball diamond for youth leagues. The neighborhood features three churches and a small commercial center, which includes locally owned stores such as Collectors Lair and Good Times Cycle and Adventure. For more extensive shopping and dining, residents can head to Tanglewood Mall. Downtown Roanoke is also 4 miles away, offering a variety of activities. While the neighborhood has a few Valley Metro bus stops, most residents rely on cars for transportation. Interstate 581 is 4 miles north, providing access to Blacksburg and other areas. The Carillion Roanoke Memorial Hospital is 3 miles away, and the Roanoke-Blacksburg Regional Airport is 9 miles north.
