Highgate Homes for Sale

Weddington's premier gated estate enclave

Highgate luxury homes occupy Weddington's premier gated estate enclave — a small, custom-only community of approximately 80 estate sites on 1–2.5 acre parcels, distinguished by a juried design review program and one of the most architecturally consistent canons in Union County.

Built across the mid-2000s on a previously rural tract, Highgate was conceived as Weddington's first true gated luxury alternative — fewer homes than the village-style enclaves, larger lot footprints, and an architectural review board that has held the canon together for two decades. The result is a community where every home meets a brick-and-stucco or full-brick standard, the rooflines are coherent, and the streetscape feels intentional.

Lot frontage runs from interior cul-de-sac parcels to the most premium estate lots backing the community's central greenspace. The strongest parcels — Highgate Drive and Estate Ridge — typically support 6,000–8,000+ sqft principal residences with detached carriage houses and full motor courts.

Pricing reflects the gates and the consistency. Interior lots range from $2M to $2.5M. Mid-tier estate lots range from $2.5M to $3.5M. Premium estate parcels clear $3.5M–$4.5M+, with several recent transactions clearing higher full-market.
