3N187 Timberline Dr.

Tucked away in Lakewood subdivision, just a few minutes walking distance from Sonny Acres Farm, sits a home that presents a rare opportunity for the right buyer. If you are looking for a place you can transform into your home or an appealing investment opportunity look no further. This property has 66 years of fond memories built in and has been lovingly maintained by one owner who built the home in 1954. Thoughtfulness in design abounds here with the intent of maximizing comfort and practicality. The kitchen sink placed strategically to overlook the sprawling backyard; a breezeway which connects the home to the attached garage and could function perfectly as a den, home office or playroom; a vintage basement kitchenette for handling large get-togethers - and so much more. Inside the home you will find original plaster walls in perfect condition and sporting a fresh paint job; the original oak hardwood floors which can be refinished to a color of your choice; a large eat-in kitchen which was renovated in the early 1990's and has ample cabinet and counter space. The three first floor bedrooms each have generous closets and the powder room off the first floor family room could easily be turned into a master bath. The full basement is finished in cedar plank and has room for additional storage, a second family or recreation room, a workshop and a large laundry room/kitchen area. Outside, the yard with its mature trees, garden and tool shed offers the opportunity for weekend football games, birthday parties, family reunions, Halloween bonfires and so much more - as has been the tradition here for so many years. Despite the age of the home and the need for some cosmetic upgrades, there have been many important updates throughout the years including: well pressure tank (2020); wallpaper removal and fresh paint job on main floor (2020); dishwasher (2019); boiler heating system (2017); whole house Generac generator system (2015); 200 AMP electrical service (2015); front concrete walkway re-poured and covered porch added (2004); Sunsetter awnings added over back deck and back patio; complete kitchen remodel and back deck added (1993). Tour the home and you will be able to see the original architectural blueprints and land survey as well as the meticulous records that were kept over the years. They say a distinction lies between a house and a home and this property has so much "home" built in already. All it needs is for someone to start writing its next chapter.
