Herons Watch Condos for Sale

About Herons Watch

The declaration, recorded April 30, 1998 in Official Records Book 1812, Page 222, plans a phased condominium of up to 78 residences in seven buildings, one building per phase. Its phasing table lists every home as two bedrooms and two baths. Unit numbers carry the building in the first digit and the floor in the second, so unit 2301 is in building 2 on the third floor, and the numbering never passes the third floor. The state parcel roll agrees on the total: 78 residence parcels at 34 Herons Watch Way, plus one common-element parcel titled to the condominium association, and it records the same 940 square feet of living area for every home.

The roll dates buildings 1 through 3, the first 36 homes, to 1998 and buildings 4 through 7, the other 42, to 2005. That split points to two inspection calendars. Florida's milestone statute counts thirty years from a building's certificate of occupancy and reaches buildings of three habitable stories or more. Unit numbers reach the third floor in buildings 1 through 5 and 7, which suggests three stories there, but stop at the second floor in building 6, which the statute may not reach. If the certificate dates match the roll, buildings 1 through 3 come due by the end of 2028 and buildings 4, 5 and 7 by the end of 2035, unless the local enforcement agency has set a shorter interval. Each building's certificate date, and whether an inspection report has been filed, are the first things to request.

The 1998 phase table does not match today's unit list. It gives building 5 ten homes and building 6 eight; the roll lists twelve in building 5 and six in building 6. Both reach 78, but a buyer in either building should confirm the as-built unit list against the recorded phase amendments. The declaration also commits a pool and poolhouse parcel to association ownership and treats the pool and its deck as common facilities; confirm that the facility was built and conveyed as planned.
