Grandview Properties

The Grandview Development currently includes 47 finished and occupied homes and includes one home currently under construction. In addition to the 47 homes, more than 40 additional lots have been purchased by individual owners. The Homeowners Association is well established and the overall development has substantial forward momentum.

Phase I, opened in 1996 and included 45 high-quality lots serviced by paved roads and underground utilities. Currently, three scenic view properties are available in Phase I.

The success of Phase I has been naturally followed by Phase II, initially involving 25 lots opened in 2001. Of these 25 lots, two remain unsold. These two unsold lots are both streamfront with larger acreage. With the opening of Phase II, the Developer granted access easement for residents of Grandview to more than one-half mile of Old Anderson Pike, a toll road that pre-dates the Civil War. This easement is open for pedestrian and horseback traffic.

Phase II was expanded in 2005, when an additional 29 lots were added. Five of these lots remain available, three of which are streamfront. In 2010, the Developer further expanded Phase II by 21 lots, 18 of which are currently being marketed. Of these 18 lots, 14 have frontage on either Hickman Branch, Parson Branch, or Frederick Creek. See Available Lots.

Phase I is generally bounded on the east by Standifer Creek, on the west by land controlled by Resource Land Holdings and on the north by Brimer Creek. Phase II is bounded on the south by Brimer Creek, on the east by a TVA powerline, and then by the coursing of Hickman Branch. Phase II is bounded on the north by the confluence of Parson Branch and Frederick Creek and on the west by land owned by Timber Resource Management. The lands currently owned by Resource Land Holdings and Timber Resource Management were previously owned by Hiwassee Land Company (a subsidiary of Bowater Corp.). As a result, the natural boundaries provided by streams and the ownership by substantial successor owners to Hiwassee Land Company, Grandview is well situated to ensure the stability and integrity of the development - with 5 acre minimum lot sizes and thoughtfully developed Covenants and Restrictions. The coursing of Alder Branch, Brimer Creek, Frederick Creek, and Hickman Branch beside and through the Grandview Development add great attraction to the property.

Within Phase II, there are three types of property available: streamfront, mountain view, and level. Lot sizes vary from 5 to 15 acres with the price per acre ranging from $7,500 to $32,000.

Throughout the development, the special beauty of the Grandview property combined with the stewardship of the land begun by Z. Cartter Patten more than 70 years ago as well as the quality of the development will make Grandview fully deserving of its characterization of "Mountain Serenity", not for decades, but for generations to come.

I've lived in Grandview for 10 years. In addition to the scenic beauty, Grandview offers a very close-knit sense of community with regular pot luck suppers, clubs, and other neighborly activities.
