Why Live in Old Southwest

Old Southwest in Roanoke is the largest residential historic district in Virginia, featuring a mix of vintage homes and local dining options with scenic views of the Blue Ridge Mountains. Located just a mile from downtown Roanoke, the neighborhood includes the historic Alexander Gish House, office buildings, and public green spaces. The Old Southwest Neighborhood Association actively organizes community events, such as block parties and holiday light contests, and maintains historic properties. Housing primarily consists of single-family homes, including American Foursquares and Victorian shingle homes from the early 1900s, with some condos and multi-unit apartment buildings also available. The neighborhood is known for its close-knit community and historic charm, with homes often featuring rounded shrubbery and concrete walkways. Highland Park serves as the central hub for outdoor activities, offering a disc golf course, soccer field, basketball courts, tennis courts, playground, skate park, and an off-leash dog park. For dining, residents frequent Albemarle Bakery and Coffee House, Evie’s Bistro and Bakery, and Lews Restaurant. While shopping options within the neighborhood are limited, Sunnyside Market provides grab-and-go conveniences, and larger retailers like Kroger, Walmart, and Target are a short drive away.
