1063 Henley Downs PlaceLake Mary, FL 32746Price: $1,595,000

An extraordinary offering within the guard-gated golf community of Heathrow, this approximately 4,600-square-foot residence pairs a fully renovated interior with nearly half an acre of beautifully landscaped grounds, creating a private setting in one of Lake Mary's most established luxury communities. Inside, six bedrooms and five bathrooms unfold beneath tall ceilings, classic crown molding and a neutral palette filled with natural light. The layout includes a primary suite, a second-floor suite and four additional bedrooms, with spaces currently used as a home gym and private office, providing flexibility to adapt to the next owner's lifestyle. The home was comprehensively redesigned in 2021 by Erica Stone Interiors, bringing a fresh perspective to its Mediterranean architecture while creating interiors that feel warm, luxurious and inviting. Distinctive details give the home personality throughout, including a gas fireplace framed by a reclaimed barn wood mantle handcrafted by a local artisan and a pale blue tray ceiling that adds subtle color and character to the living space. Outdoor living continues the experience, with the home opening to a private pool surrounded by a limestone deck and beautifully maintained landscaping. Set on nearly half an acre, the grounds provide a sense of privacy and space while remaining connected to the lifestyle and amenities of Heathrow. Additional updates include two new air conditioning units installed in 2020, a new water heater installed in 2024, and, since the 2021 renovation, fresh interior and exterior paint, whole-house water treatment, updated appliances and electrical service expanded to 400 amps to accommodate multiple electric vehicle chargers. Adding another dimension to the opportunity, the adjoining approximately 2.5-acre property directly behind the residence is also available for separate purchase (MLS #6441899). Acquiring both properties would create an extraordinary approximately three-acre estate within the private gates of Heathrow, with the additional acreage and second residence situated outside the HOA boundary and therefore free from Heathrow HOA restrictions. The combination presents a rare opportunity to enjoy the security and lifestyle of one of Central Florida's premier gated golf communities while gaining a level of privacy, land and flexibility virtually impossible to replicate within Heathrow.
