About the Community
Powell is a thriving suburban community located just north of Knoxville, Tennessee, offering easy access to the amenities of a mid-sized city while maintaining a quieter, residential feel. The greater Knoxville area sits at the gateway to the Great Smoky Mountains National Park, providing year-round outdoor recreation including hiking, whitewater paddling, skiing, and lake activities on the Tennessee River system.
