Clarksville Homes for Sale and Clarksville Real Estate

Clarksville is one of the oldest and most popular communities in Austin. The neighborhood stretches East to West from Mopac to North Lamar and from North to South from West 6th Street to West 15th. Nearyby neighborhoods include Hyde Park, Tarrytown, and Barton Hills.

Clarksville was founded in the 1870's by newly freed slaves on land previously owned by Texas Governor Elisha Pease. The developed land and plantation was eventually incorporated into the city and because of this rich history, the neighborhood has been maintained and preserved.

Love of the outdoors is a common thread in the Clarksville community and the neighborhood is home to Clarksville Park and West Austin Park and is within biking distance to Shoal Creek Biking Trail, ZIlker Park, and Barton Springs Pool.

When it comes to keeping Austin weird and local, you can't get any better than Clarksville. The neighborhood offers the best in history, location, shopping, and outdoors that the city has to offer.
