Herons Landing
Herons Landing is 295 home sites, the largest single subdivision in Viera East, built from the early 1990s through 2005 at 2,000 to 3,500 square feet, with its own private pool, basketball and tennis courts, walking trails, preserves and lakes.
Herons Landing In Viera East, Florida
At 295 home sites, Herons Landing is the largest single subdivision in Viera East, and it is one of the few with a confirmed build range: early 1990s through 2005. That fifteen year span matters when you shop here, because a 1993 house and a 2004 house in the same neighborhood are very different purchases.
The homes run 2,000 to 3,500 square feet, built by Barber Construction, Gary Schull and Salgar Construction, and many have pools. The neighborhood has its own private community pool as well, plus picnic areas, basketball and tennis courts, walking trails, and natural preserves and lakes through the site.
Size is the practical advantage. With 295 homes there is genuinely something for sale most of the time, which is not true anywhere on the golf course side where several neighborhoods hold fewer than fifty homes.
The thing to focus on is build year. On a house from the mid 1990s, roof age, the water heater, the electrical panel and how the lot drains after heavy rain account for most of the surprises. We tell you what to expect before the inspection rather than after.

Late 1990s
The middleGenerally past the earliest construction standards, often with at least one roof replacement already behind it. Ask for the permit history.
Early To Mid 2000s
