Studio Homes for Rent in Highlands

Highlands, a neighborhood in Lowell, contains homes built between the late 1800s and the 1960s, with a few newer developments. The area displays a range of housing options, including Victorian homes, Cape Cods, cottages, bungalows, ranch styles and Colonial Revivals. There are smaller single-family dwellings on compact lots as well as larger homes with more yard space, particularly along Monadnock Avenue near Mount Pleasant Golf Club. The Merrimack River flows beside Highlands, so locals are close to outdoor recreation. Along the water await opportunities for fishing, swimming, kayaking and scenic paths for biking and jogging. Additional green spaces, Thomas L. Crowley Park and Roberto Clemente Park, are within the community. The two public spaces feature playgrounds and athletic amenities. The Mount Pleasant Golf Club operates a nine-hole course. Local businesses reflect the neighborhood's cultural diversity, with casual eateries like Phnom Penh Restaurant and Captain John’s. Chain retailers include Target, Lowe’s, Walmart and Hannaford. Annual events, such as the Lowell Folk Festival and the Southeast Asian Water Festival, draw large crowds for music, cultural performances and maritime races. The major thoroughfares, U.S. Route 3 and Interstate 495 provide access to larger metropolitan areas, like Boston and Cape Cod. The Lowell Regional Transit Authority and commuter rail station provide public transportation options. Boston Logan International Airport is 33 miles from the community. Schools in the area include Dr. Gertrude Bailey Elementary School, James S. Daley Middle School, and Lowell High School, which is undergoing significant upgrades to its campus.
