Waverly Hills.

Waverly Hills is where Tallahassee starts to roll, a half-square-mile defined by its elevation and old growth trees.

Waverly Hills isn't just another Tallahassee address. It's where the city starts to roll, literally. You'll find it north of downtown, a half-square-mile stretch where the roads climb and dip, unlike much of flat Florida. This is a place defined by its elevation and the canopy of old growth trees that shade the streets. The air feels a little different up here, a bit cooler under the dense foliage. If you appreciate a neighborhood with character and a bit of a workout on your evening stroll, Waverly Hills delivers a distinct Tallahassee experience.

The homes here sit among those mature trees, often with views that stretch out over the landscape. It’s a quiet corner of Tallahassee, but not isolated. Residents enjoy easy access to Levy Park, a local favorite for a quick walk or a picnic. Just beyond the neighborhood's edge, Lake Ella offers another spot for recreation, whether you're feeding the ducks or catching a free concert on a nice evening. It’s the kind of place where you know your neighbors, but everyone still has their space, and the sounds of the city feel a little more distant.

Despite its quiet residential feel, Waverly Hills offers easy access to Levy Park and Lake Ella for recreation.

While Waverly Hills doesn't have its own commercial strip, its location means you're never far from what you need. It’s a residential retreat that still feels connected to the wider city. Take a look below to see what places and events are happening around Waverly Hills.
