Highland Pines Homes for Sale

Highland Pines is a mixed-use neighborhood of attractively priced midcentury homes nestled into the urban communities of southeast Tampa. Initially developed in the 1960s, Highland Pines is home to a traditional neighborhood park, a contemporary skate park and an elementary school. The neighborhood is convenient to a pair of the city’s popular cultural and entertainment districts. “It’s very accessible to Ybor City and downtown Tampa,” says Karen Howell of Keller Williams Tampa Properties, who recently sold a home here. Homes are concentrated in the center of the neighborhood. They are bordered by the Myrtle Hill Memorial Park cemetery to the north, while parks and industrial areas take up much of the south side. A collection of ranch-style homes offers ample yard space on streets often shaded by pines, palms and other native trees. Most homes have paved driveways, many offer carports, and a handful of newly-built contemporary homes feature attached garages. “What I noticed driving around is that the neighborhood was pretty well-kept,” Howell says. “There was pride in the property.” Prices typically range from the mid-$100,000s to the mid-$200,000s, although new homes can sell for
