Everything in this neighborhood makes living here fun as well as convenient. Whether it the concerts on a summer evening at THE FRAZE or a shopping experience at TOWN AND COUNTRY and THE DAYTON MALL, an art exhibition at LINCOLN PARK, holiday fireworks or sports events, something cool is happening near this fabulous bargain in WASHINGTON TOWNSHIP. 425 WILD TIMBER LANE is a private cul-de-sac off Mad River Rd. Every house is individually designed and custom built on a spacious lot with BIG MATURE TREES. Nothing looks cookie cutter. Tasteful expressions of solid value the signatures of a seasoned neighborhood is everywhere. Its a great place for kids. The convenience of the big yellow limo to and from top rated schools is right at the edge of the yard. Out the door and onto the bus is tough to beat in any weather. The abundance of neighborhood amenities and conveniences is priceless. Its hard to believe that people will settle new houses out in barren cornfields and base their purchase decision on "dollars per square foot". Wow! Step into the big oaken entry door and you are greeted with a dramatic use of spatial dimensions. Ceilings that soar over balcony overlooks and big windows that splash light everywhere. Nothing looks boxy, undefined or disruptive. Carpets live a long time because The CENTER HALL FOYER flows traffic from the upstairs throughout the first floor on brand new LuxoVinyl. The Living Room and Dining Room don't serve as hallways. THE LIVING ROOM (12'x20') is big. A vaulted ceiling with the balcony overlooks is really impressive. You don't have to move the piano or shove the big stuffy furniture around to accommodate the Christmas tree (or a banana tree) or whatever Plenty of space for the tree, the piano, and wassailing. (Photo documentation, the fests of past yore, are available upon request.) The fireplace in there looks good even without a fire. Our FORMAL DINING ROOM (13'5"x 13'5") is set off with French Doors and a big picture window seat with a greeting to all. The wall space for the china hutch, servers, the table and of course your guests is very comfortable. Yes, we have THE GATHERING ROOM which is actually a commodious combination of spaces ( 13'8" x35'3") that flow from a big, KITCHEN WITH A WORK ISLAND (cabinets galore) and a CASUAL DINING AREA. Interior designers are always throwing anecdotes around about " the interconnect with the outdoors". The real article is right here. The kaleidoscope of seasonal colors floods the whole KITCHEN, CASUAL DINING and GATHERING ROOM through the big bow bay window next to your table space. Its like dining outdoors year round. And there's a huge set of French Doors that add even more light and the access to the patio/deck. You just have to experience the clever use of space and glass and light. Warm in the winter , green and serene during summer. There are THREE BEDROOMS (UP) . MASTER (16'x19'6") has a vaulted ceiling, a long wall for a king sized bed, the dressers and a walk-in closet thats about 14' long with lots of shelves. There's a PRIVATE BATHROOM with a jetted tub, dual vanity and shower. Its closed with French Doors for quiet, Two additional BEDROOMS (13' x 11'4") and (13'6"x11'5") have their own full bathroom. The guy who designed this house did not skimp on closets. These bedrooms have big closets and wall spaces for big kids furniture. No cramping around window and door openings. Good thoughtful design. NOW! And especially NOW! Everyone wants a HOME OFFICE. This one is really neat. (14'x10') It looks out into the street from a balcony that lets in the light from that fan top window over the front door. (Nice to see who's ringing the doorbell and watching the kids out front.) It has a 4x6 closet to keep a file cabinet or two. Really nice for the home worker . There's also another one tucked away in the FINISHED BASEMENT next to the TV ROOM with the WET BAR and a FULL BATH W/SHOWER. Thats a total of 3 1/2 baths, two on the second floor, 1/2 bath next to the laundry room on the first floor and a full bath in the basement. Perfect for the sleepovers. Add this up and attach a THREE CAR GARAGE, deep enough to store a 21' boat and put it on a great looking lot in WASHINGTON TOWNSHIP for $284,900. We cannot be beaten by the production builders with their cornfield castles scorching in the sun out in the tooleys. No way, any day.
