Come explore Sequoyah
Hills with me… We’ll
walk the paths and parks along Cherokee Boulevard, stopping
every so often to chat with a friend or note a unique tree
or plaque placed in memory of a loved one. We can spend some
time by Talahi Fountain, then stroll just down the street,
past Papoose Park, and sit on one of the benches surrounding
Panther Fountain.
Do
you want to grab a bite to eat? We can stop at the Sequoyah
Hills Café and Market, or maybe Pisano’s Pizza – either
way we’re sure not to leave hungry. Then maybe it’s
off to Sequoyah Library to pick up a book (how about Reflections
on Sequoyah Hills?), then over to Whitlow Park to sit under
a tree and read for the rest of the afternoon while the kids
play on the playground. Or maybe we’ll go over to Sequoyah
School – you know, the one that was just acknowledged
as one of the top elementary schools in the state – and
meander along the walking path there.

They say the three most important
things about real estate are “location, location and location”. Situated
just moments from the University of Tennessee and downtown
Knoxville, and conveniently located just a short ride from
both the airport and west Knoxville, Sequoyah Hills is close
to everything Knoxville has to offer. From the center of
the neighborhood it’s only about a half-mile in any
direction to the outskirts of Sequoyah Hills, bordered by
Kingston Pike to the north and Lake Louden virtually everywhere
else. A sense of history, community and belonging is evident
from the moment you set foot beyond the arch at the entrance
to Cherokee Boulevard – this is not like any other
neighborhood. This is special.

As time goes on, the look and feel
of most new neighborhoods can no longer hide the cold,
hard facts of development in
today’s world – mainly, in order to make a reasonable
profit a developer is pressured to reduce the size of the
lot, the variety of home choices, and the quality of materials
and craftsmanship. After our stroll I’m sure you’ll
realize that those pressures weren’t the same when
Sequoyah Hills first began development almost a century ago.
The lots vary in size, the homes vary in style, and the houses
that were built back in the 20’s and 30’s will
probably still be standing long after some of the homes built
today have outlived their usefulness.

Quick – name a neighborhood in Knoxville where you
can rent an apartment, purchase a condominium for anywhere
from $60,000 to $400,000, or purchase a home for anywhere
between $100,000 to over $3,000,000. That’s right – Sequoyah
Hills. Now name another… It’s tough to find that
kind of economic diversity in a new development when the
sign out front says “Houses from $200,000 to $400,000”.
A sense of history, community and
place… Come see
why Sequoyah Hills is a destination not only for residents
of Knoxville, but for those visiting Knoxville as well. It
only takes one stroll. Welcome to Sequoyah Hills. Welcome
home. |
