Upon his visit in the 1800’s, Prince Albert of England said of the view off Lookout Mountain, “Surely this is one of the most beautiful spots in the world.”

It’s 2,000' above sea level and 1,000' above Chattanooga, Tennessee, which it overlooks. The spine of the mountain runs from Gadsden, Alabama north to Chattanooga.

Known for having been a Confederate outpost protecting the city of Chattanooga during the Civil War, when Lookout was taken by Union forces, the entire Mid South was opened to conquest by General Tecumseh Sherman and his famous march Atlanta-Savannah.

Noting the majestic Tennessee beauty, many soldiers returned to the area and settled on the cooler mountain. 1890’s Yellow fever that ravaged Southern cities also sent many more to the mountain top.

The highest rated Tennessee elementary school, Civil War monuments, battlefields, hiking trails, culture, amenities and tourist sites (Rock City/Ruby Falls/Incline/Point Park) set this executive community apart.

The feel of Lookout Mountain is similar to Highlands, NC, yet near a growing city located equi-distant between Nashville, Atlanta and Birmingham. Home styles range from rustic English manor, sophisticated Georgian, posh French chateaus to quaint cottages – simply nostalgic small America at its best.
