Just south of Hwy. 5 on the east side of Galpin Blvd. is the neighborhood called Timberwood. If you know many of the street names in Chanhassen you might recognize that stone and wood names are very popular around here, so this fits right in. The amazing thing about Timberwood, however, is that lot sizes range from two and a half to five acres each. Yes, ACRES.

Several different custom builders selected this area in the 1990’s and made sure that every home had a comfortable yard that pretty much made it impossible to hear your neighbors, “every time they sneezed.”

With that, there comes some debate, however. We all know about the debates over Coke vs. Pepsi, Ford vs. Chevy, and so on. Well with several acres of lush green grass underfoot there is another series of questions to be debated: John Deere or Kubota? 48, 54 or 62 inch cut? Gas or Diesel? Maybe you’d rather not go there and just have it professionally done by a lawn service so you KNOW you’ll get those magical stripes like you see at the ballparks & country clubs. What ever you select, just remember it’s called a lawn tractor, not a lawn mower.

Yes, Timberwood is a community of great homes filled with fine people. Some of the homes have even undergone extensive remodeling and expansion to include the most current updates, inside and out.

The kids can almost walk to nearby Chanhassen Rec. Center and Bluff Creek Elementary School. Convenient shopping is nearby on Hwy. 5.
