About Tamara
Tamara is an unincorporated neighborhood in northeastern Knox County, Tennessee, positioned north of John Sevier and west of Mascot, with Plainview further north. The area sits in a rural stretch of the county, reached by the local valley roads that connect John Sevier and Mascot to the broader Knox County road network. Nearby neighborhoods include Walker Hills, Golden Pond, Washington Valley, Ellistown Estates, Washington Meadows and Maloneyville, all within a few miles. The surrounding landscape is defined by open land and rolling terrain typical of this part of Knox County, with homes spaced out along rural routes rather than dense subdivision streets. Tamara functions as a rural pocket of the county, away from the denser development found closer to Knoxville, while still within reach of John Sevier and Mascot for everyday needs.
Living in Tamara
Homes around Tamara tend to sit on larger rural parcels, with single-family houses spaced along country roads rather than tightly platted streets. Architectural styles lean toward ranch and traditional single-story construction common to rural Knox County.

Washington Valley and Washington Meadows lie nearby for additional rural residential options. Commuters typically route through John Sevier or Mascot toward the larger Knox County road network for access into Knoxville. Open land and tree cover are common around home sites here.
