Properties consist of single-family houses ranging from the $100,000s to the $300,000s, on large lots and often atop hills in a rural and suburban mix. This gives residents plenty of space while winding roads bring them past their neighbors. Tazewell Pike runs directly through the neighborhood, from one side to the next, past thickets of woods and rolling green hills.
