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.

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.
