About Fairfield
Fairfield is a residential area in the Walland section of Blount County, Tennessee, positioned among the foothills that lead toward the Great Smoky Mountains. Wildwood lies about three miles north, Walland itself about four miles southeast, and Eagleton Village roughly four miles northwest, placing Fairfield within easy reach of all three. The broader corridor is built around Highway 321, known locally as the Lamar Alexander Parkway, which links this stretch of Blount County to Townsend and on to the national park entrance. Homes here sit on land shaped by the surrounding ridges and valleys, with wooded lots common throughout the area. Nearby neighborhoods such as Walland Gap, Hubbard, Creekstone, Settlers Pointe, Sweet Grass, and Kensington Place share this same foothills setting.
Living in Fairfield
Homes in and around Fairfield tend toward single-family properties on wooded or sloped lots, reflecting the foothills terrain rather than a flat grid layout. Many lots carry mature trees and some elevation change, which shapes lot size and driveway placement more than in flatter subdivisions. Highway 321 is the main route for commuting toward Maryville or heading southeast toward Walland and Townsend. Everyday errands typically mean a short drive to Walland or Eagleton Village for basic shopping and services, with Maryville offering a fuller range of retail. Outdoor destinations, including the approach roads to the Great Smoky Mountains National Park, are within a reasonable drive of these homes.
