Sugar Creek Heights housing: 19 parcels, 0.46 acre, one county road

What Johnson County records for Sugar Creek Heights is the plat name, the parcel count and the acreage. Nineteen parcels carry the legal description, lot size runs about 0.46 acre and holds consistent across the plat, and the architectural styles on record are ranch and two story traditional. What the county does not carry is a year built attribute, so the build era for this section is not sourced and we won't print one. City wide the picture is split: 25.0 percent of Franklin's 10,275 units date from 1940 to 1979 and 28.2 percent from 1980 to 1999. A Sugar Creek Heights house could sit in either band, and the way to find out is to look at the openings.

That matters because the two style groups on record don't share a window schedule. A ranch of this size runs wide, low openings on a single floor with no stair hall glass at all. A two story traditional on the same 0.46 acre carries a landing window and a second floor run that a ranch never has. We work Sugar Creek Heights at 14 to 20 openings, which is inference from the plat and the recorded styles rather than a survey, and it sits below Franklin's 16 to 22 for the dominant 1990 to 2009 two story stock. Casing depth isn't sourced for this plat either, so we take it per house at the head of each opening.

What a Sugar Creek Heights measure runs into

Orientation first, because here it's decided for you. The whole plat fronts a north south county road, so there is no north facing front elevation anywhere in Sugar Creek Heights and no south facing one either. West fronts want a tighter weave: 3 percent openness on a solar shade cuts the afternoon glare and still lets you read the yard. East fronts can usually run 5 percent, because morning sun is lower in intensity by the time most people sit in that room, and 5 percent keeps the view open. Get that backward and the customer lives with a hot room or a shade they never lower.

Depth and squareness are the open questions. Neither is sourced for this plat, which means the measure decides rather than the plan. We run a three point measure on width and height at every opening, because a single reading at the middle is how a shade ends up binding against a settled frame. The factory then takes a standard 1/16 inch per side off your finished width so the product clears the opening, and Lutron publishes an inside mount light gap of 3/4 inch per side on its Roller 20/64. On a square opening that gap is even. On a ranch that has moved on Johnson County clay it turns into a wedge, wider at one end than the other, and that is visible from the road at night.

What we specify most in Sugar Creek Heights

Nineteen houses, one road, two orientations. That's the whole brief, and it produces a shorter product list than a mixed subdivision would. The front rooms carry the work, because they face a county road and take direct sun for half the day. The back of the house on 0.46 acre is a much easier problem, and we'd rather put the budget where the glare and the traffic are. National custom window treatment pricing runs $250 to $2,600 per window, shutters $175 to $800, and awnings $1,000 to $6,000 installed. No installed pricing for Franklin is published by anyone, so the quote comes off the measure.

Sugar Creek Heights on South 600 East

Sugar Creek Heights sits east of Franklin in ZIP 46131, off the section line grid Johnson County laid out long before the subdivision was platted. Residents give a four digit county road address on South 600 East rather than a subdivision street name, so the plat name gets used far less in daily life than the road does. Sugar Creek itself is the feature the plat is named for. Schools are the Franklin Community School Corporation, a single district covering the whole city, unlike Greenwood where the schools split across three corporations. Elementary assignment goes by address, then Franklin Community Middle School and Franklin Community High School.
