Old Sevier frames the south bank of the Tennessee River with skyline views of Knoxville and a lively Sevier Avenue corridor where patios, coffee bars, and taprooms create an easy rhythm from morning to late evening. Side streets mix renovated cottages with contemporary townhomes, while the South Waterfront brings new condo options for those who want riverfront living and quick access downtown.
Outdoors, the neighborhood excels. Stroll the riverwalk to Suttree Landing Park for playground time, picnics, and sunset overlooks, or launch a kayak and trace the shoreline. Just up the hill, the Knoxville Urban Wilderness delivers more than 50 miles of connected trails, and Baker Creek Preserve adds flow trails, family-friendly loops, and a bike park that attracts riders from across the region.
Families value strong public school options, including Dogwood Elementary School and South-Doyle High School, with programs supported by community partners across Knox County. Commuters can pedal over the Gay Street Bridge, be downtown in minutes by car, or hop a route on Knoxville Area Transit for an easy, low-stress ride.
Whether you’re drawn by weekend brewery patios, trailheads at your doorstep, or a quick commute, Old Sevier offers a lifestyle that feels plugged in without feeling hurried.
