About Millstone
Millstone is a residential neighborhood in the Choto area of southwest Knox County, roughly ten miles from downtown Knoxville. It sits between Farragut to the west and Louisville to the south, with Karns a short drive north. The area is shaped by its position on the peninsula formed by Fort Loudoun Lake, with Northshore Drive and Choto Road serving as the main connectors to Kingston Pike and the broader Farragut shopping corridor. Homes here are set along curving residential streets with mature trees, typical of the subdivisions that developed around the lake over recent decades. Nearby neighborhoods include The Glen at West Valley, States View, Wedgewood Hills, Sedgley, Seven Oaks and Sunset West, all part of the same general Choto and West Valley corridor.
