Highland Park is one of Hopkinton's premiere neighborhoods and one of the more popular in town. Located just off of picturesque Saddle Hill Road, Highland Park is situated next to the Hopkinton Country Club.
The entrance to this lovely development begins with the streets Edgehill Road, Stoneybrook Road, and Bridgeton Way, then leading into Wedgewood Drive, Singletary Way and Riverbend Road.
In this subdivision, you will find much more than just traditional New England colonials. The homes in Highland Park are of a variety of styles, including French provincial, Tudor and some large capes.
Unlike many subdivisions which are built by one primary builder, a number of builders were involved in the original project, resulting in a diversification of plans and individual styles.
The homes in this community range in age from the 1980's up into the 2000's with lot sizes at a minimum of 60,000 square feet. Home sizes are 2800 square feet to over 4500 square feet. Amenities are numerous and varied and with superior quality evident in every part of the neighborhood.
Current property values range from $640,000 to over $1,000,000.
Highland Park is easily accessible to major routes 495 and the Mass Pike as well as close proximity the to MBTA train station.
The scenic and convenient location, as well as the unique styles of homes, make Highland Park an attractive community to anyone seeking to relocate into Hopkinton.
Best known for being the start of the annual Boston Marathon site, Hopkinton also enjoys the distinction of having an award-winning public school system that has been consistently ranked highly among schools in the Metrowest area.
