Highland Village Real Estate: Lake Living with Established Neighborhoods

Living in Highland Village

Highland Village is a small city tucked between Flower Mound, Lewisville, Copper Canyon and Double Oak, with miles of Lewisville Lake shoreline on its eastern edge.

Because the city is largely built out, new construction is rare. Most buyers here are choosing between established homes — which makes condition, updates and lot location especially important.

Housing

Most homes date from the 1980s through the 2000s: brick traditional two-stories and single-story homes on tree-covered lots. Some streets back to the lake, parks or greenbelts; those homes tend to draw extra interest.

Updated homes and homes with pools or lake proximity can compete heavily, while homes needing work give buyers room to add value.

For an address-specific price discussion, compare recent nearby sales with the home's condition, lot and current competition. Market conditions change; request an opinion of value rather than relying on an undated average.

Lifestyle

Doubletree Ranch Park and Unity Park are local favorites, and the city's trail system connects many neighborhoods to the lake.

The Shops at Highland Village provides outdoor shopping and dining, so everyday errands rarely require leaving town.

Getting around

FM 407 (Justin Road) and FM 2499 are the main arteries, with I-35E on the city's east side.

The DCTA A-train's Highland Village/Lewisville Lake station connects to Denton and to DART at Trinity Mills, an option some commuters use for Dallas.

Schools

Highland Village is served by Lewisville ISD. Confirm assigned campuses for any specific address directly with the district.

Market

Low turnover and little new supply mean inventory in Highland Village can be tight. Pricing relative to condition is usually what separates homes that sell quickly from homes that sit.

Market conditions change month to month. For a current, verified look at recent sales in your price range, ask Shaune or request a home value opinion.

Practical homeowner checklist for Highland Village

Details like these change the real cost and experience of owning a home here, and they vary by address. Check them for any specific property.

• Property taxes: the total rate combines city, county, school district and any special district. Look up a property on the Denton Central Appraisal District site and confirm current rates with the Denton County Tax Office.
• HOA: ask for dues, what they cover, any pending special assessments and deed restrictions before you commit.
• PID / MUD: newer communities may carry a Public Improvement District or Municipal Utility District assessment. Ask for the amount and how long it lasts.
• Utilities: water, trash and electric providers can differ by address, even within the same town. Confirm with the seller or city.
• Commute: drive your actual route at rush hour before deciding.
• Homestead exemption: if it will be your primary residence, file with the appraisal district after you move in.
