Timberline is a wooded subdivision within the broader Summit Park area on the western edge of Park City, Utah, set on lots that typically run from about 0.4 acres to just over one acre, with a handful of larger parcels stretching up to 21 acres. The neighborhood sits roughly halfway between downtown Park City and Salt Lake City along the I-80 corridor, giving owners quick access to Park City ski resorts, Salt Lake International Airport, and the Wasatch Front. Most homes range from 1,800 to 4,600 square feet with three to five bedrooms, and the streets retain a quiet mountain character under mature pine cover.

Timberline at a Glance
Timberline has the feel of a cabin community at the lower edge of Summit Park, with easier access and more year-round practicality than the higher hillside streets above it. Lower elevation generally means roads stay clearer in winter than the steeper sections of Summit Park, and the wooded setting holds its mountain character year-round.

Who Timberline Is Best For
Timberline is best suited for buyers who want a wooded Park City setting, larger lots, and easier Salt Lake City access, but who are comfortable with gravel roads and fewer organized neighborhood amenities than Pinebrook. The community works for primary residents, second-home owners, and outdoor-focused buyers who value land, trail access, and privacy more than HOA amenities.
You Will Likely Fit If You Want
- Detached homes on wooded lots
- Privacy and larger parcels (often half an acre or more)
- Direct access to the Park City trail system
- Quick I-80 access and a short drive to Salt Lake International
- A lower-elevation pocket within the Summit Park area
- Room for trucks, trailers, and outdoor gear in oversized garages
Tradeoffs to Know Before Buying
- Most interior streets are dirt or gravel rather than paved
- Fewer organized neighborhood amenities than Pinebrook
- Home conditions vary widely across 1990s and 2000s stock
- Road maintenance and winter access should be reviewed property by property
- Less suburban infrastructure than Pinebrook
Location and Access
Timberline sits off Highway 224 and Pinebrook Boulevard at the western gateway to Park City, just minutes from the I-80 interchange. Owners reach Park City Mountain Resort and Old Town in roughly 15 minutes, Deer Valley in about 20, and Salt Lake City International Airport in 30 to 35 minutes. That access profile makes Timberline workable for primary residents commuting toward Salt Lake as well as second-home owners flying in for weekends and ski trips.
Interior streets are dirt or gravel rather than paved, which keeps traffic light and reinforces the rural character. Buyers who prefer fully paved access often prefer Pinebrook or Park Meadows. Within the broader Summit Park area, Timberline tends to draw buyers who want a wooded setting at a lower elevation than the steeper streets higher up the hillside.
Lot Sizes and Home Profiles
Most Timberline parcels sit in the half-acre range, which gives homes meaningful separation without the maintenance load of a true acreage property. A smaller subset of lots run five acres or larger, and several of those parcels permit horses subject to county zoning and HOA review. The largest single parcel in the subdivision approaches 21 acres.
Home sizes track a wide curve. Smaller cabins start near 900 square feet, the typical full-size residence runs about 3,500 square feet, and the largest homes exceed 4,600 square feet. Bedroom counts follow the same pattern: two-bedroom cabins exist, but most homes deliver three to five bedrooms, and several offer six. Garages are often oversized or paired with detached structures sized for trucks, trailers, snowmobiles, and bikes. To match a specific size, lot, or garage requirement to active inventory, call 435.200.5478.
Build Eras and Construction History
The first Timberline home was built in the mid-1960s, but the bulk of the neighborhood went up during two construction waves: the 1990s and the 2000s, which together account for roughly three-quarters of the existing homes. A smaller number of homes were built in the 1970s and 1980s, and a handful of new construction projects have been completed since 2010. Any home built after 2010 reads as a newer build inside this subdivision and trades accordingly.
Buyers should expect varying levels of remodeling across the original 1990s and 2000s stock. Roof, mechanical, deck, and finish upgrades vary widely from house to house, which is one of the reasons direct comparable analysis matters more here than in newer master-planned subdivisions. For a property-specific evaluation, contact our team at Carlson@RealEstateInParkCity.com or call 435.200.5478.
Trail Access and Outdoor Lifestyle
Timberline owners have direct access to miles of the Park City trail system used for hiking, running, and mountain biking from spring through fall, with cross-country skiing and snowshoeing routes opening in winter. The Mid-Mountain, Spiro, and Pinebrook trail networks are reachable from the neighborhood, and the wooded terrain keeps summer temperatures noticeably cooler than the Salt Lake Valley.
This is a community shaped by outdoor use. Homes are typically configured with mudrooms, ski storage, and oversized garage capacity precisely because owners use the space accordingly. If outdoor access is the central reason you are considering Park City, Timberline delivers it without the steeper, narrower roads found higher up the Summit Park hillside.

Is Timberline part of Summit Park?
Yes. Timberline sits within the broader Summit Park area, generally at a lower elevation than the higher hillside streets within Summit Park. Buyers comparing Timberline to other parts of Summit Park should focus on elevation, road access, lot shape, snow load, and home condition.
Who is Timberline best for?
Timberline is best suited for buyers who want a wooded Park City setting, larger lots, and easier Salt Lake City access, but who are comfortable with gravel roads and fewer organized neighborhood amenities than Pinebrook. It works well for primary residents, second-home owners, and outdoor-focused buyers who value land, trail access, and privacy more than HOA amenities.
How large are Timberline lots?
Most Timberline lots measure about half an acre. The full range runs from roughly 0.4 acres on the small end to about 21 acres for the largest single parcel in the subdivision. A smaller group of five-acre and larger lots may permit horses subject to county zoning and HOA review.
What size and style of homes are in Timberline?
Most Timberline homes range from about 1,800 to 4,600 square feet with three to five bedrooms. Smaller cabins under 1,000 square feet exist on the lower end, and larger six-bedroom homes exist on the upper end.

When were most Timberline homes built?

Are Timberline streets paved?

Timberline sits within the broader Summit Park area but at a lower elevation than many Summit Park streets, which means easier winter access and less snow load than higher hillside sections.
