Here at Rarity Ridge we like to celebrate the simple joys of life. Rarity Ridge’s community feeling contradicts the sprawling metropolises that are rising up across the country. Here families and individuals can find a traditional, classic community to call home. It’s not only a wonderful place to call home, but also a great waterfront community with incredible scenery and ambience.

Set along the Clinch River in Oak Ridge, Tenn., Rarity Ridge highlights the past with its traditional, vintage-style details. Each street is lined with cottage homes, carriage homes, patio homes and townhomes. The estate homesites feature your custom design to suit your lifestyle needs. Sidewalks and large front porches are reminders of times when neighbors enjoyed each other’s company while rocking on their front porch. Classic white trim and soft woodland home colors highlight the Queen Anne architecture of each home.

All of the Rarity Ridge amenities surround a Town Center that will boast excellent shopping, great dining and office spaces. When complete, the Town Center will be home to a Wellness Center, Discovery Center, shops, restaurants, a fresh market and much more. Areas will be set aside for small businesses and services for our residents. The Wellness Center has areas for aerobics and fitness, an indoor saline lap pool, sauna, hot tub and health-oriented juice bar. There is an indoor serving area and outdoor patio for your enjoyment. Members have access to men’s and women’s private locker rooms and restroom facilities. The Wellness Center is located directly beside the Discovery Center and near the water complex and tennis courts.

The gated water complex has a beach-entry pool with waterslide and dancing water fountain. It is located on the other side of the Discovery Center from the Wellness Center and beside the tennis courts. Located on the Clinch River, the Rarity Ridge Yacht Club has boat slips available for your watercraft. The Clinch River on Watts Bar Lake is stocked with rainbow and brown trout and is a great area for fishing throughout the year. Located beside the water complex are tennis courts and in the future the community will have basketball and volleyball courts and softball and baseball fields.

There are miles of walking trails throughout the community that showcase the magnificent views and surroundings. Enjoy a light stroll or brisk walk and get acquainted with the community you now call home.
