About
Highspire is a townhouse subdivision in East Goshen Township, Chester County, constructed circa 1986, within the West Chester Area School District. The community consists of attached interior-row and end-unit townhouses on lots of approximately 0.03 acres, with no individual garages and parking via shared surface lots. The HOA — managed by Diamond Community Services — covers exterior building maintenance including roofs, lawn care, snow removal, road and parking lot upkeep, trash, and water, making the ownership structure functionally similar to a condo-style arrangement.

Location Anchors
What Makes This Distinct
Because the HOA fee structure covers roof replacement and exterior building maintenance, buyers should request current reserve fund documentation before contracting — the adequacy of reserves directly affects whether a special assessment is likely after major exterior repairs.

Worth Asking
Have you considered what happens to your monthly carrying cost if the HOA’s reserve fund is underfunded and a roof replacement cycle triggers a special assessment — and how that risk compares to a fee-simple townhouse where you control the maintenance schedule yourself?
Common Questions
What does the Highspire HOA cover?
Public records and multiple listing descriptions confirm the HOA fee covers exterior building maintenance (including roof replacement), lawn care, snow removal, road and parking lot maintenance, trash removal, and water. Buyers should verify the current monthly fee amount and obtain the most recent reserve fund study directly from Diamond Community Services, as dues have varied across recorded sales.
Which schools serve Highspire?
Highspire is located in East Goshen Township and falls within the West Chester Area School District. Community profile data identifies Glen Acres Elementary School (1150 Delancey Place, West Chester) as the elementary feeder. J.R. Fugett Middle School and West Chester East High School serve most of East Goshen Township for the upper grades. School boundary assignments can change; buyers should confirm current enrollment eligibility directly with WCASD before closing.
What are the typical home sizes and configurations at Highspire?
Homes at Highspire are 2- to 3-bedroom colonial-style townhouses with 1 to 2.5 baths, built circa 1986. Interior finished above-grade square footage ranges from approximately 1,150 to 1,800 square feet. Some units have full or partial basements. There are no garages; all parking is via the community’s shared surface lots.
Items to Verify with Your Agent
A few specifics on this page are sourced from secondary aggregators or older filings. Confirm before relying:
- Approx Homes — No source identified total unit count for the Highspire subdivision. Chester County parcel records (ChesCo Views GIS) would be the authoritative source but were not directly queryable in this research pass.
- Builder — No builder name was identified in any public records record, community profile, or deed reference. The circa-1986 construction date is consistent with multiple small-builder activity in East Goshen Township; no single builder could be verified.
- Hoa Name — The HOA is referenced as ‘Highspire Homeowners Association’ in directory sources and ‘Diamond Community Services’ appears as the management company in at least one public records listing (PACT2075916). The formal legal name of the HOA entity has not been verified against Pennsylvania UCC or county recorder filings.
- Hoa Fee Current — Monthly fee has ranged from $225 (older Compass listing) to $305-$320 (2024-2025 listings), indicating fee increases over time. No current authoritative fee schedule was obtained. Buyers must verify directly with Diamond Community Services.
- Elementary School Assignment — Livingplaces.com identifies Glen Acres Elementary as the feeder school for this address. However, East Goshen Township Wikipedia notes multiple elementary feeders for different sections of the township (East Goshen, Exton, Fern Hill, Glen Wood, Penn Acres). The public sales data provided does not specify a most common elementary. Buyers should confirm current assignment with WCASD.
- Appreciation Range Text — MI tool shows 0 sales in the 33-year appreciation index and no average appreciation per sale. Insufficient long-run transaction history to derive a defensible appreciation pattern.
- Township — The input structural data left township blank, but public records (e.g., PACT2075916) confirm the township as East Goshen Twp (area code 10353). This was verified and used in the page.
School District
Highspire is served by the West Chester Area School District. Buyers should verify current school assignments directly with the district.
