20268 Heron Circle

Buyers choose homes for a variety of factors-location, size, condition & desirable features that improve comfort. Finding the ''ideal'' property that meets all of your needs is uncommon. Some claim it doesn't exist. But does it? Located in the historic town of Abingdon VA, in the Heron Pointe on South Holston Lake neighborhood, this property could be your ''ideal''! Heron Point (a distinguished community w/private, gated access to the lake & boat dock/ramp) is a natural haven where you can take leisurely strolls & see expansive views of the lake & mountains, the occasional deer & lovely, wooded acreage. The residence sits on a 1.2 acre lot, among a quiet cul de sac, surrounded by lush greenery. The low maintenance brick & stone exterior is regal yet simplistic & presents a dramatic presence amongst the landscape. The entrance is grand & immediately captivates your attention with its structural intricacies-stately arched openings & columns, vaulted & tray ceilings, stunning hand-hewn wooden beams that grace the walls & fireplace mantel, & maple hardwood flooring that gleams. The custom painted walls add to that Roman & European inspired ambience & together create a noble demeanor. You'll find the continued attention to detail throughout-recessed wall niches w/lighting, built-in glass shelving & additional tray ceilings/arched feature walls. This detail is not just a pretty wrapping; the home is filled with modern comforts. 3 gas log fireplaces-one dual b/w the great room & the cozy 16' x 24' tongue-&-grooved sunroom, a gourmet kitchen (w/wood mode fine custom cabinetry, Wolfe appliances, a warm conversation space & a breakfast nook with views), 2 primary suites-both with large walk-in closets & luxury baths, a 2nd full kitchen, 2 laundries, & a 23' x 69' unfinished basement. There's the 18' x 6' walk-in safe for your valuables, 2 decks-one covered with a 4-seated hot tub for relaxing, & so many more indulgences. Is it your ''ideal''? Come, take a look & see! NOTE: the other square footage of 2,356 is for the above-ground, finished area on the lower level. There are two unfinished basements in the house-one on the lower level, in the back of the house, with approximately 612 sq ft & one on the lowest level with approximately 1,587 sq ft. The HOA dues cover maintenance of the private boat dock/ramp, street lighting & Heron Pointe entrance sign.
