ICYMI, Lake Highlands football is back! The LHHS boys of fall met at the Boneyard Thursday night and crushed Mesquite’s Poteet, 49-20. Win or lose, we’ve got to say, it felt nice to once again hear the whistles, the band, the clash of pads. Normal, even… Masks and social distancing aside. Dave Perry-Miller Real Estate is thrilled to be a part of Wildcat Football this year, having signed on as title sponsor for the season.
Part of what makes this 14-square-mile community really special is that it rallies around its own. And not just the football team. Small business owners. Kids fighting terminal illness. Neighbors suffering injustice. It’s a nice place to live and that’s why generation after generation return to raise their family here, as they were raised.
If you already know this about Lake Highlands and want to be a part of something more than just a neighborhood, take a look at these four opportunities to move in, around or up. Because Lake Highlands is a diverse place to live, note the equally diverse price points.

8927 Clayco Drive
3 Bedrooms | 2.5 Baths | 2,803 sq. ft. (per building plan)
This newly listed traditional one-story home, which feeds into Moss Haven Elementary, was originally four bedrooms. Surely knowing a pandemic was imminent, the owners repurposed a private, split bedroom as a fantastic home office with built-in cabinetry and plenty of work space. The formal living area features a vaulted ceiling and fireplace with gas logs. It also overlooks the patio leading to the magnificent outdoor space with a heated pool, water features, and pergola. Possibly the best part: the Meyer Lemon and Mandarin Orange trees ensure lots of fresh juice for your poolside cocktails.
