The Highlands

The first homes in the Highlands were built around the turn of the 20th Century then into the 10's, 20's and 30's. But even today, you'll find a few older homes that have seen better days being torn down with new houses built in their place.

Home styles vary greatly in the Highlands. Lots of Victorians, Bungalows and Colonial Farmhouses but also, as you see here, a German inspired cottage house.

Home prices vary greatly, due primarily to condition. Properties that have been updated with today's modern technology but retain their charm, go for top dollar in the Highlands.

Lot sizes are narrow but sometimes deep and front porches are very common on most streets.

The Highlands, due to it's popularity, has a good share of investors who've purchased dilapidated homes to fix-up and then sell. Not that it is easy to do but at least here in the Highlands, you know you'll have a lot of buyers come and review your work.
