Property Description
Tucked away on over a combined acre of a tree-canopied lot, in the quiet established Marlwood Acres community, this classic Dutch Colonial at 1040 Timber Lake Drive delivers a rare combination that buyers hunt for but seldom find; with lake views and frontage, mature natural surroundings, and a move-in-ready home just 20 minutes east of Uptown Charlotte. Inside, the recently updated kitchen anchors the main level with refreshed finishes and updated lighting and plumbing fixtures throughout. The floor plan opens naturally into comfortable living and dining spaces, while upstairs, all four bedrooms are thoughtfully positioned, providing a layout many buyers specifically seek. The expansive primary suite is a standout, offering generous proportions, a huge walk-in closet, and a large bathroom that can be elevated into a more flexible space to include a home office. Three more bedrooms and another full bath round out this floor, providing flexibility and ease for many buyers' needs. A two-car side-load garage enhances curb appeal while keeping the front elevation clean and classic. Outside, the oversized lot invites future possibilities: outdoor entertaining areas, expanded landscaping, or simply enjoying the space and privacy that’s already in place. Marlwood Acres is known for its quiet streets, established homes, and natural surroundings—yet it remains incredibly convenient to shopping, dining, and commuter routes into Charlotte. This is a neighborhood where people stay, where lots are larger, and where the pace feels refreshingly unhurried. 1040 Timber Lake Drive isn’t just another listing—it’s a long-term opportunity that's move-in-ready. If you’ve been waiting for something truly different, this is it!
