Older coastal suburb experiencing a resurgence
Murray Hills is an eclectic suburb located just outside of Chattanooga. Following Route 58’s relocation in 1940 to accommodate the Chickamauga Dam project, several suburbs began popping up around the new highway. Today, Murray Hills still has many of its original homes, but new construction is ongoing on the east end of the neighborhood. “The area is becoming more popular because of its proximity to jobs and downtown,” says Marcia Casteel, a Realtor with Keller Williams Realty, who lives nearby and has been selling homes in the area for over 10 years.
Murray Hills sits just North of 58 and has access to stores and the water.
Water plays an important role in Murray Hills life.

Easy commuting to nearby job opportunities
Murray Hills is mostly car-dependent with Route 58 located just south of the neighborhood homes. For job opportunities, an industrial park is 3 miles east with companies like Volkswagen and Amazon, and downtown Chattanooga is 7 miles west. The Chattanooga Metropolitan Airport is 3 miles south and takes about 10 minutes by car.
Mid-20th-century homes and new craftsman styles
Homes here are congregated along traditional suburban gridded streets with cul-de-sacs. Murray Hills features mid-20th-century homes and new craftsman-style properties built within the last five years. For vehicle parking, houses have driveways, and some styles include multi-car garages. These properties don’t stay on the market long, usually selling after just two weeks. Homes in Murray Hills typically sell for between $250,000 to $500,000.
Some Murray Hills homes are more modern in their design.
There is a variation on the size and shape of lots in Murray Hills.

Students may then attend Central High School, which gets a C-plus grade and serves as The Institute of Advanced Manufacturing and Mechatronics for the school district. The Chattanooga School for the Liberal Arts is an additional Kindergarten to eighth-grade public school option offered by Hamilton County. Chattanooga State Community College’s main campus is also in Murray Hills, located along the shores of the Tennessee River.

Chickamauga Lake, Tennessee Riverpark and Murray Hills Park
Chickamauga Lake borders the neighborhood and provides plenty of opportunities for boating, fishing and swimming. “Even if you don’t have direct access to the lake from your property, it’s just a short drive away,” says Casteel. Tennessee Riverpark is a 150-acre urban greenway with 13 miles of trails along the Tennessee River. The regional park also offers fishing piers, boat launches, art installations and a playground. The Chickamauga Dam Day Use Area is another nearby park with fishing opportunities, a playground, a boat launch and a paved walking path. Murray Hills Park is a small greenspace with a playground, picnic tables and a walking path. Booker T. Washington State Park is another large municipal park just north of Murray Hills along the Chickamauga Reservoir. This 353-acre park has eight miles of interconnected trails, fishing piers, a public swimming pool and multiple playgrounds.

Linda’s Produce is a popular local grocery store off State Highway 58 that’s been selling farm fresh fruits and veggies in Chattanooga since 1992. There are also popular local restaurants in Murray Hills like Portobello's, a family-owned eatery with Italian dishes, and Ankar's Hoagies, which has been serving sandwiches here for over 40 years.

Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
