Lake Jackson Townhomes for Sale

Lake Jackson in Tallahassee is a lush, swampy neighborhood centered around a 7.5-mile-long waterway that experiences periodic dry-down events. Despite its fluctuating water levels, the lake remains a hub for recreation, with Jackson View Park offering open green spaces, playgrounds, and wooden docks for strolling. The Lake Jackson Mounds Archaeological State Park features wooded hiking trails and ancient Native American temple mounds, while the fenced-in Leon County Dog Park connects to J. Lee Vause Park, which has playgrounds, wooded pathways, and picnic areas. Homes in Lake Jackson are generally older and more affordable, including ranch-style, contemporary, and traditional single-family houses, some with lake views. The neighborhood has a country feel but is conveniently close to amenities like supermarkets, service businesses, and retailers along U.S. Highway 27, including Publix, Starbucks, Walgreens, and Walmart Supercenter. Dining options include Wahoo Seafood Grill, Culver’s, and Chick-fil-A, and residents can visit the Centre of Tallahassee mall for shopping and entertainment. The area is served by Leon County Schools, with highly rated institutions such as Leon High School and Canopy Oaks Elementary School. Interstate 10 runs south of the neighborhood, providing easy access to Jacksonville and the Florida panhandle, while downtown Tallahassee is about 20 minutes away, and Tallahassee International Airport is a 25-minute drive.
