Timber Bend in Avon, Indiana is a custom home neighborhood where the median sale price was $559,000 across 71 closed sales from January 1, 2021 through June 14, 2026. Homes here sit on larger lots, with a median size of 0.58 acre, and they’re known for brick exteriors, three-car garages, and mature trees on the southwest side of Avon.
If you’ve driven through the southwest side of Avon, you’ve probably noticed Timber Bend. It’s the kind of neighborhood that feels a little more tucked away than the newer subdivisions closer to US 36, with winding streets, rolling hills, and lots that give each home room to breathe.
I pulled the closed sales data for Timber Bend covering January 1, 2021 through June 14, 2026, and there’s a clear story in the numbers. Prices have climbed steadily, the homes are larger and more custom than what you’ll find in much of the surrounding area, and buyers who want space without leaving the conveniences of Avon keep finding their way here.
Here’s what the closed sales tell us about values, home features, lot sizes, and the rules that come with owning here.
About Timber Bend in Avon, Indiana
Timber Bend is a custom home community in the Avon area of Hendricks County. The homes sold here were built between 1992 and 2024, so you’ll see a mix of established homes with mature landscaping alongside the occasional newer build that filled in over the years.
What sets this neighborhood apart is the scale. The closed sales averaged 3,412 finished square feet above grade, with several homes reaching well over 5,000 square feet. These are roomy, four and five bedroom homes for the most part, and nearly all of them carry a three-car garage.
The neighborhood also connects to Cedar Bend, a newer section of custom homes, so the two areas share a similar feel of larger lots and individual home designs rather than repeating floor plans.
Location and Setting
The setting is one of the biggest reasons people gravitate to Timber Bend. Mature trees, gentle hills, and larger lots give the whole area a quieter, more private character than you’ll find in higher-density subdivisions.
Sitting on the southwest side of Avon puts you close to the shopping and dining along the US 36 corridor, with quick access to commuter routes toward Indianapolis. You get the space and the trees, and you keep the everyday conveniences a short drive away.
Timber Bend Market Snapshot
Across the full period, the closed sales paint a picture of a strong, appreciating neighborhood. The median sale price landed at $559,000, with an average of $572,571. Sales ranged from $345,000 on the lower end to $845,000 at the top, which reflects how much variety exists in home size and finish level here.
Homes sold close to asking, too. The average sale-to-list ratio across the closed sales was 98.2%, so well-priced homes in Timber Bend have held their value at the negotiating table.

Year-Over-Year Price Trend
The clearest signal in the closed sales is the upward climb in price. The median sale price rose from $479,000 in 2021 to $637,500 in 2025, an increase of roughly 33% over those full years. Price per square foot followed the same path, moving from about $153 to $178.
One thing worth watching is the days on market. Through 2023, homes were selling in around 8 to 10 days. Starting in 2024, that stretched into the mid-20s and beyond. Prices kept rising, so this reads as a market settling into a more normal pace rather than one losing steam.
| Metric | 2021 | 2022 | 2023 | 2024 | 2025 | 2026* | Change (2021 to 2025) |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Median Sale Price | $479,000 | $544,900 | $570,000 | $608,000 | $637,500 | $507,000 | +33% |

*2026 reflects only three closed sales through mid-April, so it’s too small a sample to read as a trend. I included it for transparency, not as a forecast.
Home Features and Characteristics
The closed sales give a consistent profile of what a Timber Bend home looks like. These are larger, custom-built homes designed for families who want both living space and storage.
Above-grade finished square footage averaged 3,412, with a median of 3,303 and a range from 2,148 up to 5,336. Most homes carry four or five bedrooms. Floor plans split between two-story designs and ranch or one-and-a-half-story layouts, and about 73% of the homes that sold included a bedroom on the main level, which is a real draw for buyers who want their primary suite on the ground floor.
Outdoor living is part of the appeal. Lots ran from about a third of an acre up to 2.35 acres, with 89% of homes sitting on a half-acre or more. That kind of space is hard to find in newer construction nearby.
| Feature | Detail |
|---|---|
| Avg. Garage Stalls | 3 |
| Most Common Garage Size | 3-car (94% of homes) |
| Pools Present | 13 homes (18%) |
| Homes with Basements | 39 homes (55%) |
| Most Common Style | Traditional American, with a strong Ranch presence |
| Avg. Lot Size | 0.72 acre (median 0.58 acre) |
| Construction Materials | Brick on 100% of homes, with cedar, stone, and cement-board accents |
The Three Features Almost Every Timber Bend Home Shares
A few patterns showed up over and over in the closed sales, and they tell you a lot about the neighborhood’s character.
First, every single home that sold has brick on the exterior. That’s 100% of the closed sales. Second, 94% of them carry a three-car garage, so the two-car standard you see elsewhere is the exception here, not the rule. Third, more than half (55%) have a basement, which adds finished or flexible space below the main living area.
Put those together and you get the Timber Bend signature: a brick, three-car-garage home on a generous lot, often with a basement underneath. If that’s the kind of home you’re picturing, this is the right neighborhood to be searching.
Where the Timber Bend Market Is Heading
Based on the closed sales, I’d call Timber Bend an appreciating market that’s shifting toward a healthier balance. The median price gained about 33% from 2021 through 2025, and price per square foot rose alongside it. That’s strong, sustained growth.
The change in days on market is the part to pay attention to. When homes were selling in a week back in 2021 through 2023, sellers held nearly all the leverage. The move into the mid-20s and beyond in 2024 and 2025 tells me buyers have a little more room to breathe now, even though prices kept climbing.
For sellers, that means pricing and presentation matter more than they did two years ago. For buyers, it means there’s a bit more time to make a thoughtful decision. Either way, the underlying demand for larger, custom homes on bigger lots in Avon is holding firm.
Timber Bend HOA Rules: What Homeowners Need to Know
Timber Bend has a recorded set of covenants administered by the neighborhood’s Architectural and Environmental Control Committee. The rules are fairly typical for a custom home community, with a strong emphasis on keeping the look and feel of the neighborhood consistent. Here’s a plain-language walkthrough of the big ones.
Fencing Rules
Every fence requires committee approval before you build it. No fence can block reasonable light, air, or views for neighbors. Fences in front yards have to be open wood fences of a decorative type, and they can’t exceed four feet in height. Galvanized and vinyl-coated chain link fencing is not allowed anywhere. If you’re putting in a pool, the pool has to be properly fenced for safety.
Swimming Pool Guidelines
In-ground pools are allowed, but above-ground pools are not. The covenants prohibit any pool where the water level sits partially or completely above natural ground level. Any in-ground pool needs committee approval before construction, and it has to be fenced. A pool house or bath house is permitted only as part of that fenced, in-ground pool setup.
Exterior Improvement Approvals
Before you build, place, or alter any building, wall, fence, or structure, you have to submit your plans to the committee for approval. The committee reviews design, quality, materials, and how the change fits with surrounding homes and the natural setting. They have 15 days to approve or disapprove once you’ve submitted complete plans.
Accessory Buildings and Outbuildings
This is a stricter neighborhood when it comes to outbuildings. Utility buildings, barns, and standalone sheds are not permitted. The covenants allow a gazebo-type structure and a pool house or bath house tied to an in-ground pool, but that’s the extent of it. If you’re someone who wants a backyard shed, this rule is an important one to understand going in.
Landscaping and Lawn Standards
Owners are expected to modify and landscape their lot for everyday use within 60 days of finishing a home, weather permitting. Lawns need to be kept up, and during the growing months of April through September, lots have to be mowed twice a month or more.
Parking and Vehicle Rules
Trucks larger than a pickup, disabled or unused vehicles, campers, motor homes, recreational vehicles, boats, and motorcycles cannot be parked or repaired on any street, driveway, or lot unless they’re screened so they’re not visible to neighbors. The covenants also call out specific common areas where parking is prohibited. If you own an RV or boat and plan to keep it at home, you’ll want a plan to keep it out of sight.
Driveways
Driveways have to be poured concrete, a minimum of four inches thick. Asphalt driveways are not permitted in the neighborhood.
Mailboxes
The neighborhood supplies a uniform mailbox and post assembly for each lot, and no other style of mailbox is allowed. This keeps the streetscape consistent from house to house.
Pets and Animals
Household pets like cats and dogs are welcome, but no animals can be kept for commercial purposes. Pets need to be confined by a fence or kept on a leash when walked, and owners are responsible for cleaning up after them.
Signs
Signage is limited. You’re allowed a single for-sale or for-rent sign, builder or lender signs during construction, and an occasional garage sale sign. No sign can be larger than nine square feet.
Other Rules to Know
The covenants prohibit hunting and trapping, commercial businesses operated from the home, and noxious or offensive activity. Homes connect to the central water supply and public sewer rather than wells or septic systems. The covenants also restrict free-standing and rooftop antennas and satellite dishes, though federal rules can affect how some of those restrictions apply today, so it’s worth confirming the current standard if that matters to you.
HOA Assessments
Based on the closed sales, annual HOA fees in Timber Bend ran roughly $100 to $180 per year. That’s a modest assessment for a custom home community. Fees can change over time, so I’d always recommend confirming the current amount and what it covers directly with the HOA before you buy.
The information in this section is based on a review of the Timber Bend Declaration of Covenants, Conditions, and Restrictions as of June 17, 2026. CCRs are legal documents that can be amended, and homeowners should review the current recorded documents or consult with a real estate attorney for guidance on any specific situation.
Who Tends to Love Timber Bend
This neighborhood fits people who want space. If you’re looking for a larger home with four or five bedrooms, a three-car garage, and a half-acre or more of yard, Timber Bend delivers that better than most of what’s available in Avon.
The strong presence of main-level primary suites makes it a good match for buyers who want to avoid stairs for daily living, whether that’s right-sizing into a forever home or planning ahead. The custom feel, mature trees, and quieter streets appeal to anyone who’d rather have individuality and privacy than a repeating floor plan.
Nearby Conveniences
Living in Timber Bend keeps you close to the everyday essentials. The US 36 corridor through Avon offers plenty of shopping and dining options a short drive away, and commuter routes toward Indianapolis are easy to reach. You trade nothing in convenience for the extra space and trees, which is a big part of why demand here has stayed steady.
