Rhodes Communities

Making Knoxville a better place to live was one of Michael Rhodes primary objectives when he formed Rhodes Communities.

From the beginning, Rhodes has been transitioning himself to utilize his experience to acquire and develop prime properties in and around Knoxville. Currently Rhodes Communities is a part of over 25 communities in and around the Knoxville area.

“Knoxville and the surrounding area is growing and I am proud to be a part of that growth,” says Rhodes.

Located in deep West Knoxville you will find Falcon Pointe. This beautiful development has proximity to shopping, parks and Ft. Loudon Lake, which makes it a great location for any family lifestyle. Once former pastureland, Falcon Pointe is surrounded by trees so that one has an open yet private feeling.

There is a large community pool and clubhouse that is perfect for entertaining. The streetlights and sidewalks lend to the atmosphere of this community. The elegant overall feel of Falcon Pointe will give you the satisfaction of knowing you have made a great investment.

Moving further into Farragut you will find Rockwell Farm.

Tom Sgouros one said, “People like to think that Rockwell painted Middle America. The truth is Norman Rockwell invented Middle America.”

Rhodes Communities has developed a sense of the Rockwell era in this development. Rockwell Farm is now in its newest phase and the community’s continuous growth is highly contributed to the developer’s sense of community and giving back. The homes in this development are stylishly crafted with a sense of custom home without the custom price. Living in Rockwell Farm will bring you back to the community a lot of us remember, with everything from lemonade stands to Christmas caroling.

Rhodes newest addition to Farragut is Chapel Glen, pairing old world charm with a modern flair.

Jane Austen once said, “There is nothing like staying at home for real comfort.”

The homes in this new community will be detailed from top to bottom keeping convenience and comfort top of mind. Chapel Glen is within minutes of Turkey Creek and only 5 minutes from schools. Rhodes is developing this community complete with sidewalks, walking trails and a community play area. The builder in this community is known for his skilled craftsmanship and eye for design having garnered spotlights at the Knoxville Parade of Homes for over a decade.

In the rolling hills of Hardin Valley, surrounded by countryside yet close to all of the amenities of West Knoxville, you will find Greenbrook. The homes in Greenbrook are top quality construction with standard features that would be considered upgrades by any other builder.

Greenbrook has a community pool and streetlights to add to the friendly community atmosphere and beautiful views of the surrounding countryside.

“Hardin Valley is home to some of the area’s largest employers many of which commute from all areas of the city. I wanted to develop a place that people could feel at home, but be within minutes of the nearby Oak Ridge and West Knoxville area,” says Rhodes.

Residents of this community will also be zoned for the new Hardin Valley High school. “We are very excited to be a part of that,” says Rhodes.

South of Knoxville, Rhodes has two communities.

“This area is one of Knoxville’s best kept secrets,” says Rhodes. Twin Creek nearing completion with only 9 homes left to be followed by Woodcreek Reserve coming later this year.

“The location is prime, because you are within 15 minutes of everywhere,” says Rhodes. You can walk to nearby schools, parks and the public library from these communities. The builder in this community has constructed quality homes in the Knoxville area all his life; and truly enjoys seeing a home through from start to finish.

Rhodes also has new communities coming on later this year – Edward’s Place in Gibbs and Campbell Creek on Campbell Station Road.

Any Rhodes Communities’ client knows that Rhodes Communities is about more than just building houses. It’s about making a difference in the lives of Knoxville families. All properties are open each Saturday and Sunday from 1:30 until 5pm. For more information on a Rhodes community please contact Kerry Queener, Susan Calabrese or Teri Kerr of Realty Executives at 688-3232 or visit them on the web at www.RhodesCommunities.net.

“I wanted, still do, to make Knoxville a better place to live for my family,” says Rhodes. “And now, there are many neighborhoods I’ve had a part in building that have matured and become an integral part of the entire community.”

The Knoxville area is rapidly growing and that’s a challenge, but one that Rhodes sees as an exciting opportunity for moving forward and contributing to the area. Rhodes, his contractors and sub-contractors look forward to making a difference in the Knoxville community with homes to fit every family.
