Championship Golf In Your Backyard

Step outside and you are steps from championship golf. The High Meadow Ranch Golf Club features three distinct six-hole loops that form our 18-hole championship course, a pro shop, and Ogie’s Grill for post-round meals or family gatherings. Members and daily-fee players alike enjoy perfectly maintained greens surrounded by woods.

Recreational Facilities For All Ages

Beyond the fairways you find a full recreation center with a junior Olympic-sized swimming pool, sports pavilion, tennis courts, basketball courts, and baseball fields. These amenities turn the neighborhood into a daily resort. Kids head to the pool or courts after school while parents grab a round of golf or a trail walk. It is the kind of setup that keeps families outside and connected.

Equestrian-Friendly Living For Horse Enthusiasts

The community was designed with horse owners in mind. Wide trails, spacious lots, and a peaceful setting make it easy to keep horses at home and ride right from your property. Walking and biking trails wind through the property, and dedicated equestrian trails let horse owners ride without leaving home.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is your build-on-your-lot process for High Meadow Ranch lots?

We start with a thorough homesite evaluation to understand soil, drainage, and any slope considerations typical of these wooded lots. Montgomery County permitting usually wraps in two to three weeks, which keeps momentum going.

Next comes design. We meet three times to lock in the floor plan, then move to exterior and interior selections. Clients sometimes circle back to earlier decisions during this phase, but staying in sequence saves the most time. In the design center we guide you through our trusted partners so you avoid rabbit holes with outside vendors.

Once plans finalize we handle surveys, soils reports, utility coordination, and the full construction set. Construction itself averages 210 days from slab to delivery (see our guide on how long it takes to build a home for more context). The fastest we have seen here hit 139 days with good weather and minimal changes; the high side reached 324 days when we waited on the owner to clear an existing structure.

Throughout the build we focus on practical choices that protect your investment. Choosing 9-foot ceilings in secondary rooms instead of 10-foot can save around $10,000 without sacrificing quality. Exterior veneer tiers—from all lap siding to stone and stucco mixes—let you balance curb appeal with budget. We walk you through every option so you see the real trade-offs.

New build vs. resale in High Meadow Ranch – which is right for you?

A new build gives you exactly what you want on your own land with modern efficiencies and a clean warranty. Resale homes in the community currently list from roughly $500,000 to over $10 million, often on large lots with mature landscaping. If you prefer turn-key, we can point you toward local realtors, but our focus remains helping lot owners create something new.

What is the size of lots in High Meadow Ranch?

Most range from one to ten acres. This gives you real privacy and room for whatever outdoor lifestyle you envision—whether that means horses, gardens, or simply space between homes.

Are there HOA fees in High Meadow Ranch?

Yes, the mandatory HOA maintains the community’s quality, amenities, and common areas. The fees support everything from trail upkeep to the golf club and recreation facilities.

Do you sell homes in High Meadow Ranch?

We do not sell existing homes. We build new custom and semi-custom homes from the ground up for owners who already hold lots here. If you own property in the community, reach out and we can walk through next steps.

How much does it cost to build in High Meadow Ranch?

Our current portfolio averages $213 per square foot. Base finishes start near $180, moderate selections hit the average, and highly featured or smaller-footprint homes reach around $250. Lot prep on these acreage sites typically adds $20,000 to $30,000 above our included base. We provide a fixed contract price early so you know exactly what to expect.

How long does it take to build a home in High Meadow Ranch?

Construction averages 210 days from start to delivery. We have delivered homes here as quickly as 139 days under ideal conditions and as long as 324 days when site clearing or client changes extended the schedule. Our process keeps the timeline predictable once design locks in.
