Incorporated in 1978, the Highland Gardens Homeowners' Association, Inc. is a Florida not-for-profit corporation that remains active. The community consists primarily of single-family homes on lots along streets such as Palm Blvd and nearby areas. It appears to be a low-maintenance, older neighborhood with minimal or no shared amenities.
HOA Fees and Financial Obligations
HOA fees in Highland Gardens are notably low. Real estate listings reference fees as low as $60 per month in some cases, though exact current amounts, assessment schedules, and what they cover (likely basic common area maintenance, insurance, or administrative costs) are not publicly detailed on major sites. There are no indications of high fees, special assessments, or extensive financial obligations typical of larger master-planned communities. Buyers should request current estoppel letters or financial statements directly from the association.
Rules and Regulations
Specific covenants, conditions, and restrictions (CC&Rs) are not publicly available online. As with most Florida HOAs, rules likely focus on property maintenance, landscaping, exterior appearance, and parking. The small scale suggests enforcement is handled internally by volunteer officers. Prospective residents should contact the association for governing documents.
Community Amenities and Lifestyle
The community itself offers no reported shared amenities such as pools, clubhouses, or recreational facilities. Residents enjoy a quiet, suburban lifestyle in an established neighborhood convenient to Lehigh Acres amenities and services. The focus is on individual home ownership rather than resort-style living.
Notable Aspects
Highland Gardens stands out for its longevity (active since 1978), very low or minimal fees, and central Lehigh Acres location. It is not affiliated with any large developer or management firm. The association maintains a registered agent and officers residing within the community.
