Highgate real estate

Highgate is a small farm village in the east end of Chatham-Kent, near Ridgetown, with older homes along King Street and farmland right up to the edge of the village. It is about as rural as a village gets. Buyers come for the quiet, the space and the country setting.

What I tell buyers about Highgate

Highgate is in the farm country I know best, and I have had listings in the area myself. What I tell buyers is that in Highgate you are really buying into the countryside, so the land around a home matters as much as the house.

Living in Highgate

King Street has a few red brick storefronts and older homes, and that is most of the village. Ridgetown is close for shopping and services, and the roads out of the village lead straight into farmland. It is a place for people who like a quiet life.

Country property around Highgate

Much of what sells around Highgate is rural: farmhouses, building lots and farmland. I look at those with the same eye I use on my own family's farm: drainage, soil, well, septic and outbuildings. See my farm and rural property page and rural Chatham-Kent.

Selling in Highgate

A rural property needs a buyer who understands what they are getting. I know how to describe land and outbuildings honestly so the right people come to see it. Start with a home evaluation or just give me a call.
