What's that big development near the Farragut baseball field and Kroger?
It's not an agricultural development − despite what the name suggests − but a large community of apartments and businesses that are being built in Farragut, just east of Campbell Station.
Biddle Farms is located at 200 Brooklawn Street, just across Kingston Pike from the Farragut High School baseball field and near the Campbell Station branch of Kroger. Nearly every aspect of the project is still under construction, and roads are blocked off as crews finish working.
The "town center" of Biddle Farms will be around 60,000 square feet, according to CHM Development, and 44 town homes are in the plans. Knox News left a voicemail with a representative of Biddle Farms asking about the number of apartment units, but our message was not returned in time for publication.
Once it opens, Biddle Farms will join the hustle and bustle of the West Knoxville commercial hub, which includes the adjacent Brooklawn Village shopping center and the massive Turkey Creek shopping center less than 2 miles away.
Farragut housing at Biddle Farms includes Anchor 943 apartmentsProspective Biddle Farms residents will have two options: Luxury apartments at Anchor 943 or Biddle Farms Townhomes.
The apartments range in size from one-bedroom units to three bedrooms, and leases are available now. Amenities include a pool, game lawn, dog park, bike repair shop and co-working rooms.
The townhomes won't be ready until 2025, but anyone interested can fill out a form for more information.
Donuts, custard and a downtown favorite coming to Biddle FarmsBiddle Farms also will have its own retail opening this fall, according to the website. While not every storefront is filled, a few already have installed signs or are known to be coming.
Those businesses include:
All storefronts are within a walkable distance from the residential developments.
In addition to commercial businesses opening within Biddle Farms, branches of Aldi, SmartBank and Dairy Queen are located nearby. Biddle Farms also is within walking distance of Starbucks, Elkmont Station and the reopened 35 North Bar & Grill.
