Overview

Cottages at Pryse Farm is the lock-and-leave option in the Knoxville 55+ market — attached single-story cottages with full exterior maintenance included in the HOA. The ~$200/month HOA covers exterior paint, roof, lawn, and snow removal, making it a true maintenance-free product.

Knox County location gives residents access to the full Knoxville amenity infrastructure — UT Medical Center, Turkey Creek retail, downtown Knoxville restaurants and arts, and the University of Tennessee campus. For buyers who want to travel extensively or maintain a second home, the lock-and-leave model eliminates home maintenance anxiety.

Knox County Property Tax Freeze for SeniorsTennessee’s Property Tax Freeze program locks your tax bill at its current level for qualifying residents 65+ meeting income thresholds. In a rising market, this is meaningful protection against escalating carrying costs. Verify current Knox County thresholds with the county assessor after purchase.
Zero Tennessee State Income TaxTennessee eliminated all state income tax in 2021 — no tax on IRA withdrawals, pensions, Social Security, or investment income. For retirees drawing $60K–$120K/year from tax-deferred accounts, this is worth $3,500–$7,000/year vs states with 5–6% income tax rates.
