Property Description
Nestled on land once woven into the heart of Tallahassee’s historic Smokey Hollow, this home offers more than square footage—it offers story. Imagine a community emerging in the 1890s, shaped by resilience, where families gathered in shotgun-style houses, and shared life along the hummed rhythm of daily routines. Here, swept-earth yards hosted kitchen gardens, and the hum of barbershops, churches, and juke joints filled the air. Though much of Smokey Hollow was lost to urban renewal in the mid-20th century, this property remains a tangible link to that vibrant African American heritage. Now part of the Smoky Hollow Historic District, it’s steps from the John G. Riley House Museum and the evocative spirit-house memorials in Cascades Park—beautiful tributes that honor a community’s endurance. This home is an opportunity to live within a story of perseverance, place, and pride. This historic home needs a complete remodel.
