Green hills and peaceful roads define Wildwood’s charm
Winding backroads and sprawling green hills are shadowed by the rise of Lookout Mountain, the neighborhood of Wildwood existing peacefully in the valley below. Wildwood is immediately past the Georgia state line, only a 15-minute drive southwest of downtown Chattanooga. It might be the right spot if you're looking for a more rural, quiet area without leaving the city an hour behind. For those searching for some peace and quiet without leaving city conveniences behind, Wildwood is a worthy consideration.

New subdivisions and condos are emerging alongside older homes
Wildwood has a vast range of architectural styles and acreage – if you're looking for a house with plenty of green space, chances are you'll be able to find it. While it used to be primarily comprised of single-family homes, condos and town houses have cropped up in the last decade. Typical for Middle Tennessee, you'll be able to find ranch homes – many of them with raised foundations to handle hilly terrain – alongside the sensible split-level and stilt cabins. Built in the last decade, new construction is undeniably contemporary, but the houses employ several different characteristics from classical and picturesque styles. These current homes have plenty of unique features, from the steep layered roofing to stone turrets. While many houses are set on sprawling acreage along winding roads, subdivisions have started to be developed in pockets of the area. The median selling price for single-family homes is $265,000, while town houses are a bit pricier at $340,000. Residential areas began to sprout in the 1980s, and new construction is constantly popping up around the neighborhood. Smaller, older homes or one-bedroom condos typically start selling at $150,000, while large contemporary homes can easily surpass $500,000.
