Shrewsbury, MA

In the center of Shrewsbury, Massachusetts lies some of the most beautiful land in town. The development called Highland Hills is located just off of North and High Streets and consists of thirty-nine lots - each over a half acre.

This exquisite development has been designed and constructed by Greenleaf Farms Development, a local builder in Shrewsbury who has been building quality homes for over thirty years. Greenleaf has developed more than 20 residential neighborhoods and has built more than 300 homes in the area.

The family-owned business is directed by President, June Tomaiolo, who is also the broker, owner of Tomaiolo Realty; Francis Tomaiolo, Project Manager and Builder and Matthew Tomaiolo, also a Project Manager and Builder.

The Tomaiolo's take great pride in the high quality of the materials they use and the excellent craftsmanship that goes into each of their homes.

With more than eleven different plans to choose from and the additional customization that goes into each building, the homes at Highland Hills are as individual as there are unique.

Interviews with owners in this development have brought high praise for the builders for their flexibility, professionalism and their quality of workmanship. Owners here are also delighted with the neighborhood and the quality of life at Highland Hills.

Recent resales have demonstrated that the value in Highland Hills is clearly being maintained with a sale in April at 33 Laurel Ridge $1,030,548 and a resale at 9 Laurel Ridge that is currently under agreement at a list price of $1,131,000.

In an effort to provide an exceptional opportunity to more buyers, the developer is currently listing some special lots at entry prices. You can become part of this beautiful community with prices starting at $679,900. Additional homes are also available priced from $725,000 to $869,000.
