It's found to the west of downtown Chattanooga and Lookout Mountain, its unique hooked shape following the curve of the Tennessee River. Largely rural with a quaint central hub, Haletown has some exciting residential development happening.

Housing is diversifying, with new development overlooking the river
Many original homes in Haletown were built in the 1970s and 1980s, and they're simple styles, such as ranch-style homes and split-levels. They work perfectly for the area's mountainous terrain, finding their place amongst the dips and rises of the ground. Riverside houses with attached docks are usually more contemporary, with plenty of windows and porch space. Many are sunk from the main road, bordering the water, so you've got privacy from people driving along the scenic Lee Highway. New properties are currently being built throughout the area, large properties with staggered frames and picturesque styling, such as the steep gabled roofs of Tudor revivals and sleek materials, such as stucco and cobblestone. Many are being built higher up on the ridge so residents can enjoy aerial views of the river and valley below. The median selling price for single-family homes in Haletown is $1.2 million, and properties stay on the market for longer than the Tennessee average, typically only selling once they've been available for a couple of months.

Cave exploring in the mountains, and boating on Lake Nickajack
