These classic homes offer a look into the character of Texarkana in days gone by, and the restoration of so many gems has brought them back to their former glory. As we continue to expand, quality new builds and modern landscapes bring an excitement to home buyers as well. The twin cities area is home to many beautiful and safe neighborhoods, along with apartment living and multi-unit communities. This variety offers affordable options to all Texarkana residents. Residents enjoy the fishing, walking trails and playgrounds of our beautiful parks including Spring Lake Park, Bringle Lake Park and Bobby Ferguson Park.
