Asking price per square foot across the East Tennessee estates

The median asking price per square foot is $397, among 787 estates that state both a price and a floor area.

East Tennessee has 787 active estates right now. They ask from $1,000,000 to $4,999,999, with a median of $1,485,000. Estates are 6.3% of the 12,484 active listings in the edition. An estate here is a home asking $1,000,000 or more and under $5,000,000. It is a price band and nothing else.

Across 787 estates that state a price and a size, the median asking price per square foot is $397.

Among cities with three or more such estates, the figure is highest in Cosby, at $757, and lowest in Seymour, at $270.

By floor area it runs from $321 in the 5,000+ sq ft band to $547 in the under 3,000 sq ft band.

By asking price it runs from $349 in the $1–1.5M band to $598 in the $3M and up band.

For every active home listing in the edition the median is $236, so the estate median is $161 above it.

Asking price per square foot is a rough yardstick. It is an asking price over a stated floor area and says nothing about land, condition or finish.

Floor area is led by the 3,000–3,999 sq ft band: 226 of the 787 estates that state a size, 29% of them. The median asking price there is $1,299,000.

Lot size separates the estates most: 388 of the 782 that state a lot sit on under one acre, 50% of them. The median asking price on those lots is $1,394,000.

Knoxville holds the most estates, 174 of the 787, asking a median of $1,549,950. Sevierville follows with 169.

Most estates ask $1,000,000 to $1,500,000: 417 of the 787 priced, 53% of them. The median lot in that band is 0.8 acres.

Five new estates came on the market since the last edition, with a median stated lot of 0.5 acres.

Of the 12,484 active listings in the edition, 787 are estates, 6.3% of the market.

Every price on this page is an asking price on an active listing, taken from the MLS listings as of our latest check. An estate here is a home asking $1,000,000 or more and under $5,000,000. It is a price band and nothing else. Lot size, year built, levels and garage spaces are what each listing states. Five estates state no lot size and are left out of every acreage figure. A median needs three estates or it is left out.

Each row of the lot-size and city tables below opens the estates behind it, so a count can be checked against the listings it counts. The city table lists the twelve cities with the most estates.

This page leaves a lot out on purpose. It does not read remarks, finishes or amenities, and it says nothing about who an estate is for. What it can do is count the listings, size them by stated lot and floor area and show where each one is.

The cards under the chart show the newest estates first. The search above them looks through every active listing, so an estate that is not among the cards can still be found by city, price or size.

Knoxville holds the most estates, 174 of the 787, asking a median of $1,549,950. Sevierville follows with 169.

In all, 92 cities, as the listings spell them, have at least one estate. The next four: Gatlinburg has 46, Lenoir City has 45, Pigeon Forge has 33 and Loudon has 27.

Lot size separates the estates most: 388 of the 782 that state one sit on under one acre, 50% of them, asking a median of $1,394,000.
