Highland Lakes FAQs
Is Highland Lakes a good place to live?+
It's a good fit if you want an established single-family neighborhood with water access and a quieter pace than the beach islands. The homes are sizable — a median around 2,642 square feet — and gated sections add privacy. Its position in eastern North Miami Beach keeps you close to the bay and the canals of Eastern Shores.
Is Highland Lakes expensive?+
Yes, it's a premium pocket — all 13 active listings are priced above $1M, with a median list price of $1,500,000. Prices run from about $1,085,000 to $2,980,000, and the average works out to roughly $620 per square foot. This is a seven-figure market, not an entry-level one.
What do homes cost in Highland Lakes?+
The median list price is currently $1,500,000, while homes that actually closed over the past year came in at a median of $1,345,000. That gap, plus sellers averaging 90% of asking, tells you there's room to negotiate. Waterfront and newer homes push toward the top of the range near $2,980,000.
How is the market in Highland Lakes right now?+
It's active but measured — 13 homes are listed and 30 have sold in the last 12 months. The median time on market is 40 days, so well-priced homes move within a couple of months. You can watch inventory shift in real time on the live map.
What about HOA fees and property taxes?+
Median property taxes here run about $12,630 per year, in line with the neighborhood's seven-figure values. HOA data isn't consistently reported for the area, so budget on a per-property basis — some gated sections may carry dues while other streets do not. Always confirm the specific figures on any home you're serious about.
