Luttrell is a slow-paced community known as the home of Kenny Chesney
Home to country music star Kenny Chesney and paid tribute to in one of his hit songs, “Back Where I Come From,” Luttrell spans nearly four square miles in the Appalachian Ridge and Valley range and is 25 miles north of Knoxville. “It is a quiet rural community,” says Tammie Hill, a Realtor with Realty Executive Associates. “Life’s a little slower here, and you can find some properties with a lot of land.” Known initially as Cedar Ford when it had a lime kiln and marble quarry in the 19th century to supplement its 880 residents. Eventually, the Powell Valley Railroad came and made the area a shipping center for neighboring areas in 1887. The name was changed to Luttrell in 1890 to honor former Knoxville Mayor James Luttrell, who passed away three years prior and was incorporated in 1925.
Luttrell was established in 1964 and recently built a new City Hall next to the public library.
Luttrell’s park features a spacious playground for kids to climb, swing, and slide.
Tater Valley Nursery in Luttrell has served the region for more than 100 years.

Many bungalows and ranch-style homes sit on sizable lots
Tight streets in the rolling hills of East Tennessee have bungalows and ranch-style homes scattered throughout the city. While it is not true with every home, there is the opportunity to get a property on multiple acres with picturesque landscape views. Buyers can expect a three-bedroom, two-bathroom ranch on over three acres of land to go for $500,000. “The market here moves a little bit slower than the rest of the Knoxville area,” Hill says.
