Highland Ridge is a compact residential pocket of Bradenton in Manatee County, the kind of place where homes run to a comfortable middle-of-the-market scale rather than sprawling estates. It sits within reach of familiar East Bradenton communities like Braden River East and Heritage Harbour, with schools anchored by Braden River High and Braden River Middle. You're close enough to the Braden River corridor for weekend errands and outdoor time, and still an easy hour from downtown Tampa when you need the city.
For a buyer today, this is a thin, fast-moving pocket: just three active listings, and homes are going under contract at a median of 12 days on market. The median list price is $599,000, with options starting around $350,000, so there's some spread depending on size and features. With so little inventory, it pays to be ready to move when the right home lists.
Highland Ridge is a community in Bradenton, Florida.

Highland Ridge FAQs
Is Highland Ridge a good place to live?+
It's a small, settled residential pocket of East Bradenton with right-sized homes and low HOA costs, and it's convenient to neighboring communities like Braden River East. Homes feed into Braden River High and Braden River Middle, and you're about 55 minutes from downtown Tampa. If you want a quieter neighborhood scale without sprawling estate pricing, it fits.
Is Highland Ridge expensive?+
It sits in the mid-market range for the area, with a median list price of $599,000 and homes starting around $350,000. At roughly $254 per square foot, pricing tracks with comparable East Bradenton neighborhoods rather than the luxury tier. There are currently no listings above $1M here.

How is the market in Highland Ridge?+
It's a tight, quick market with only three active listings and a median of 12 days on market, so well-priced homes move fast. There were no recorded sales in the past 12 months, which reflects how little turns over in a neighborhood this small. Buyers should be pre-approved and ready to act, and it's worth watching the broader Bradenton homes for sale inventory for backup options.

The median HOA runs about $50 per month, which is low and keeps monthly carrying costs down. Median property taxes come to roughly $5,060 a year. Always confirm the exact figures on a specific home, since taxes shift with assessed value and any exemptions.
