Questions about buying and selling in Bristol

How many homes are for sale in Bristol, TN right now?

There are currently 136 homes for sale in Bristol, including 16 listings added in the past week. Spring Mountain Realty pulls this count straight from the local multiple listing services and it refreshes through the day.

How much do houses cost in Bristol, TN?

The median asking price across the 136 homes currently listed in Bristol is $332,389, with active listings ranging from $59,900 to $4,499,000. That works out to a median of about $173 per square foot. Asking prices are not sale prices — ask us for the recent closed sales on a street you are considering.

Is the Bristol housing market moving quickly?

The homes currently for sale in Bristol have been listed for a median of 45 days. That measures how long today's unsold inventory has been sitting, so a low number points to a faster market and a high number means buyers have room to negotiate.

Can you buy a house with land in Bristol, TN?

Yes — 29 homes of the 136 currently for sale in Bristol sit on an acre or more. Acreage in Sullivan County is priced very differently from in-town lots, and public records often list the wrong lot size, so we verify acreage and boundaries before you make an offer.

Are there waterfront homes for sale near Bristol?

2 listings currently for sale in Bristol mention lake, river, or water frontage in the agent's description. Water access varies a great deal — deeded frontage, a community dock, and a seasonal view are all described as "waterfront" — so we confirm exactly what a property conveys before you tour it.

What are homes in Bristol, TN typically like?

The typical home for sale in Bristol today is about 1,931 square feet and built around 1970, based on the 136 active listings in Sullivan County. Housing stock here spans older in-town homes and newer construction, so condition and updates move price more than square footage alone.

How do I find out what my Bristol home is worth?

Spring Mountain Realty prepares a written valuation for Bristol homeowners using the recent closed sales nearest your property, adjusted for acreage, water access, and condition. Request one at springmountainrealty.com or call 865-935-0500 and a licensed agent will put it together for you.

About Bristol

Bristol sits on the Tennessee–Virginia line, and State Street runs straight down the border. Spring Mountain Realty PLLC sells the Tennessee side only, which is where the Sullivan County inventory on this page comes from.

The city is the birthplace of commercially recorded country music, home to a NASCAR half-mile, and minutes from South Holston Lake and the tailwater trout fishery below the dam — a rare combination of city services, motorsport economy, and lake access.

Market context

In-town historic homes, mid-century and newer suburban builds, lake-access property toward the dam, and rural acreage in the county. Ask for a Tennessee-side analysis — pricing across the state line behaves differently.
