Located right off the Tennessee River and less than 20 miles from Knoxville, the town of Farragut offers its residents ample seclusion and natural beauty without sacrificing urban amenities or the excitement downtown Knoxville has to offer. “The town is visually appealing with a lot of greenspaces and very few billboards or signs to spoil the view” says Eric Whitener, real estate agent with The Knox Fox Real Estate Group. “So it’s really popular with people from the city.” With its mix of suburban charm, bustling shopping and dining options, and access to Knoxville, Farragut is an intriguing option for those looking for a bit of both worlds.

New developments, classic charm
With the oldest developments in the neighborhood being (mostly) built within the last few decades, new developments are common in Farragut—with even more expansion expected. “There’s a ton of demand, but not a ton of supply at the moment,” says Whitener. “So the area is rapidly expanding and growing out as a result.” Homes in the neighborhood are mostly made up of ranch styles, townhomes, modern contemporary, and colonial revivals (many featuring distinct southern traditional accents). Prices for a single-family, 3-bedroom home in the highly desirable area range from $400,000 for ranches and townhomes to upwards of $2 million for larger colonial revivals and modern estates.

Renowned schools in Farragut
Schools in Farragut are well-known for their quality, with state rankings reflecting just how successful the school district is in educating local students. “The schools are one of the main reasons folks move to Farragut,” says Whitener. “Farragut High, especially, is always ranked highly in both academics and athletics.” Students in the neighborhood start at Farragut Primary School and finish elementary learning at Farragut Intermediate School, before moving on to Farragut Middle and finishing at Farragut High School. According to Niche, these schools earned grades of B, A-minus, A, and A, respectively—with Farragut Middle and Farragut High ranking as the #1 schools of their respective categories in Knox County.

Turkey Creek has everything residents need
Farragut is home to Turkey Creek, a popular and expansive shopping, dining, and entertainment destination. Here, residents can visit a variety of their favorite big box retailers and department stores along with unique, smaller establishments. “You can find all the big box stores, but also a lot of smaller boutiques,” says Whitener. “And it’s unique because it’s basically a huge, outdoor mall that you walk or drive around.” In addition to the shopping, residents can find a bite to eat at any of the numerous restaurants in the Turkey Creek shopping center—or head into nearby Knoxville.

Just miles from Knoxville
While the leisurely pace of the area may lead one to believe it’s farther out than it really is, Farragut maintains that peaceful charm while being less than 20 miles from Knoxville. As a result, residents of the area can easily commute to and from the larger city, including to its airport, by quickly hopping onto Interstate 40 or 75. There is some traffic around the time school starts and lets out, though the roads are mostly clear of urban traffic from Knoxville.

A community all its own
With access to Knoxville so readily available, there are already a number of festivals and events residents can take advantage of with a simple trip to the city. That being said, Farragut itself has plenty of celebrations in its own right—including the annual Lawn Chair Concert Series during the summer at Founder’s Park, and the Light the Park ceremony closer to the holiday season.
