About Blountville
Blountville is the seat of Sullivan County and one of Tennessee's oldest towns, with a preserved historic district of log and brick buildings along the old Great Stage Road.
It sits almost exactly between Kingsport, Bristol, and Johnson City, next to Tri-Cities Airport and the I-81 corridor — a location that supports both residential and commercial demand.
