About 1063 Henley Downs Place

An extraordinary offering within the guard-gated golf community of Heathrow, this 4,600-square-foot residence pairs a fully renovated interior with a rare amenity found nowhere else in the neighborhood: 2.5 private acre backyard, configured across two additional lots, complete with two ponds, impeccable landscaping, full irrigation and privacy fencing. Inside, six bedrooms and five bathrooms unfold across tall ceilings, classic crown molding, and a neutral palette washed in natural light. The layout includes a primary suite, a second-floor suite, and four additional bedrooms, currently arranged as a home gym and private office among them, offering flexibility for however the next owner chooses to live. The home was fully redesigned in 2021 by Erica Stone Interiors, a transformation described by the designer as "where design meets storytelling," blending modern flair with Mediterranean charm through warm turquoise and coral accents. A gas fireplace anchors what was once an unused sitting room, its mantle crafted from reclaimed barn wood by a local artisan, while a pale blue tray ceiling echoes the rug below, tying the space together into what the homeowners now call one of the most-used rooms in the home. The true distinction of this property, however, lies beyond the walls. The 2.5-acre backyard, secured by a 10-foot privacy fence and two electronic gates, is unmatched in scale and configuration anywhere in Heathrow. Two of the three lots sit outside the community's boundary altogether, free of HOA dues or restrictions, opening the door to RV parking, work vehicle storage, and a separate 1,000-square-foot guest home, ideal for visiting family or rental income, along with a dedicated storage garage. Additional updates since the 2021 renovation include fresh interior and exterior paint, a new limestone pool deck, whole-house water treatment, upgraded appliances, and electrical service expanded to 400 amps to support multiple electric vehicle chargers. This is a rare convergence of two lifestyles rarely found under one address: the security, amenities, and social fabric of a guard-gated golf community, paired with the freedom and space of private acreage. Life at Henley Downs Place is not simply a home; it is a legacy property, one-of-a-kind in Heathrow not to be replicated again.
