Window Treatment in Eagles Nest, Zionsville

Local Window Treatment Experience in Eagles Nest

550 homes, one plan catalog, roughly 2006 to 2015

Ryland Homes production traditional of the 2006 to 2015 era, with Beazer Homes also associated in a 2016 development study. That study recorded 549 platted lots more than 95 percent complete at the time and quoted the original price range as $250,000 to $400,000. Today the median sold price is $539,000 with a typical value estimated at $577,000. The typical house is four bedrooms at 3,920 square feet, and owner occupancy runs 97 percent, the highest in this file.

Lots average 0.30 acre, the smallest of any Zionsville subdivision here, and only 19 of the 550 homes are single story, about 3.5 percent, the lowest single story share in town. Ninety percent have basements and four have pools. The amenity list runs to a community pool, a playground, basketball and tennis courts, and the nine ponds. The community sits less than a mile from the Anson development in Whitestown on Zionsville's west side, feeding Boone Meadow Elementary and Zionsville West Middle.

Repeating sizes on the tightest lots in town

Twenty six to thirty four openings in a typical house, and they repeat across 550 houses. Combined with a 90 percent basement share, most quotes here run across three levels, but from a finite plan catalog rather than one off sizes. Casing is production framing with standard shallow returns, uniform across the catalog. Settlement is eleven to twenty years, uniformly, across a nine year build. That combination makes this the most repeatable large job in Zionsville and the easiest place in town to match a replacement shade years later.

The shapes are Ryland production of the period: transom or half round heads over the front elevation on the dressier plans, two story family room glass on the larger ones, rear sliders, and daylight or lower level openings on the 90 percent with basements. With 550 houses at a 3,920 square foot typical size, there are a lot of those two story family room walls. On the water facing lots the rear elevation is the whole problem, and on the rest, the neighboring house at 0.30 acre spacing is doing most of the shading.

Different answers front, side and rear

Because the plans repeat, the useful work here is deciding which of your elevations has which problem. The rear, if it faces water, has a glare and reflected light problem. The sides, at 0.30 acre spacing, have a privacy problem and comparatively little sun. The front has whatever the street gives it. Quoting one product family across all three, which the repeating plan tempts people into, is how a house here ends up with the right shades in the wrong rooms.

Streets, landmarks and schools

The street names are Chestnut Eagle Drive, Mountain Hawk Drive, Eagle Lake Drive, Golden Eagle Drive and Wahlberg Drive. Shared amenities are a community pool, a playground, basketball and tennis courts, and the nine ponds inside the plat, supported by dues of $44 a month through M Group Management. Boone Meadow Elementary serves the subdivision and children continue to Zionsville West Middle School, the same schools as the communities across the town line, then Zionsville Community High School.

An association at $44 a month, with no published guideline retrieved

Eagles Nest has an association managed by M Group Management with dues of $44 per month. No published architectural guideline document was retrievable and no recorded window covering rule was found, which is a statement about what we could reach rather than a conclusion about what exists. On a 550-home subdivision that's worth taking seriously: ask the association for the recorded covenants in writing before you order anything visible from outside the house, including an exterior shade, an exterior screen or an awning. For interior treatments the position across Zionsville is settled: nothing in the codified town ordinance reaches interior window coverings anywhere, and the only published window covering restriction we located in any Zionsville association is Vonterra's, which prohibits reflective window screens and coverings on Vonterra lots and has no application here.
