When moving to Chattanooga, you've got quite the range between bustling, artsy downtown and serene, soaring mountain communities. Mowbray, found 22 miles north of downtown Scenic City, offers a peaceful place to settle up in the woodland of the mountain range. With gorgeous architecture, sprawling acreage and waterfront opportunities, residents live their days with seriously scenic views.

Among the shady, winding mountain roads, you'll surely pass some old cabins and vintage ranch homes, but residential construction for Mowbray truly took off at the beginning of the 21st century. Neatly planned subdivisions have begun to crop up, giving you a community feel while still getting gorgeous mountain views. If you want 10 acres of privacy and a lake right in your backyard? Mowbray has that, too. There are plenty of stunning contemporary properties with picturesque characteristics and sleek modern appeal. Much like other mountain communities in Chattanooga, housing prices spike in Mowbray – the median selling point for single-family homes sits at $875,000, while town houses dial down to $365,000. Acreage and age of construction play a huge factor in pricing – a late 20th-century house with four bedrooms and a few acres could sell for around $700,000. Meanwhile, a recently built four-bedroom with several acres and lake access could be $1.5 million.

Public institutions for Mowbray fall under the Hamilton County School District, and children can follow a few different pipelines. They can begin their educational journey at Soddy Elementary, which receives a B+ grade from Niche, and GreatSchools reports above-average test scores compared to the previous year. The student-to-teacher ratio is 15:1, keeping the class sizes small so children can have more concentrated attention. Students move on to Soddy-Daisy Middle, which makes the top 10 list of best public middle schools in Hamilton County and finish primary education at Soddy-Daisy High School. Highly acclaimed, Soddy-Daisy High breaks into the top 100 best high schools for the entire state. It's known for progressive academics and providing several avenues to better prepare students for post-graduation career and education goals.

Highway 27 and Dayton Boulevard act as the main thoroughfares for Mowbray, which is convenient for getting to downtown Chattanooga with only a 20-minute drive. Dayton Boulevard is lined with businesses, both big chains and locally owned. Whether you need to grab groceries from Food City, stop into Walmart or pop into the bank, you'll have everything at your disposal. There are tons of small businesses to discover, from florists to salons and restaurants. You'll find locals enjoying hot slices and fresh, in-house pasta at Ricko's Pizzeria or sampling different tacos at the family-run establishment of Delia's Mexican Food.

You'll be able to find plenty of maintained parks in the bordering neighborhood of Soddy-Daisy. A popular stop for joggers and baseball lovers is Veterans Memorial Park, which has two large ballfields and winding paved paths, while those who love the water can launch boats and canoes into Soddy Lake. Mowbray's robust recreational appeal comes from all the gorgeous mountain offers. Mowbray has direct access to the North Chickamauga Creek Gorge, Falling Waters Natural Area and Big Soddy Creek Gulf for those who love both simple and challenging hikes. You'll find miles and miles of trails, with scenic views along the gorge and mountain ranges, passing rushing waterfalls and natural flora. The gorge is also popular for whitewater kayakers and canoers, but low-level risk swimming can be done at Big Soddy Creek.

If you're looking for a small-town feel with stunning views – while still having quick access to the city – Mowbray patiently awaits your consideration.
