Mixed-use neighborhood 3 miles from Downtown Knoxville
Located approximately 3 miles from Downtown Knoxville is West View, a suburban neighborhood situated between a tangle of highway corridors that give residents quick access to the city and surrounding areas. Although many of the homes in this residential community were built in the early to mid-20th century, new construction can be found throughout the area: “The entire Knoxville area has experienced a lot of growth recently,” says Caroline McDonald with McDonald Realty. Students here are served by Knox County Public Schools, which receives a B-plus rating from Niche. This neighborhood also has a number of industrial warehouses that are mostly home to a range of commercial suppliers and automobile shops.
Single-family homes found on hilly residential roads
Single-family homes here are found on winding, hilling roads that are lined with mature trees alongside thickets of bushes and other plant life. Traditional bungalows and ranch-style dwellings are some of the more common housing styles seen in this area, although a handful of Craftsman homes featuring covered front porches and brick foundations can also be found throughout the neighborhood. The median listing price for a house in West View hovers just above $200,000, which is more affordable in comparison to adjacent downtown neighborhoods. Simple two or three-bedroom ranch-style and traditional homes can go for as low as $150,000, while renovated interior or new construction can push past $250,000.
