Stone Grove and Golden Grove housing: the section grid edge of McCordsville

This cluster carries more verified street names than any other unsourced plat in the town: Stone Grove Court, Golden Grove Drive and Golden Grove Court, Alexander Ridge Drive, the three arms of Ricks Drive, and Stoneview, Crestview and Vistaview Trails. What isn't verified is the build era, the builder, the home count or the lot sizes, because Hancock County publishes no queryable parcel service. The recorded styles are two story production traditional and ranch, a mix rather than a single product, which is itself useful. A ranch runs 10 to 16 openings and a two story 16 to 24, so the schedule here lands around 14 to 22 depending which side of that mix your house falls on.

Ricks Drive splitting into East, West and South is an older naming convention than the town's newer plats use, and it suggests this corner of McCordsville was laid out before the curvilinear collector pattern took over. That doesn't date it precisely and we're not going to pretend otherwise. What it does mean practically is that the section roads around it, N 400 W, N 475 W, N 500 W and W 900 N, still run on the survey grid, so lot orientation stays close to true north south and east west instead of swinging around a curve. Exposure is therefore predictable across the whole cluster rather than varying lot by lot, which is the opposite of what happens in the town's interior subdivisions.

Low sun off open ground in Stone Grove and Golden Grove

The defining condition here is a rear elevation with an unobstructed horizon. In McCordsville's north west, the exposure problem is water reflection off Geist. On the east side, it's the absence of anything to block the sun at all. Low angle light fast after sunrise and the hour before sunset comes in nearly horizontal, which means an overhang doesn't touch it, a fifteen year old street tree doesn't touch it, and only something at the glass will. The Indianapolis July average high is 85.2F and the muggy season runs 25 May to 22 September, so the summer version of this is a heat problem. The January average low is 20.9F, and the winter version is the same low sun arriving as free heat.

That last point matters and it usually gets skipped. On a Stone Grove rear elevation facing open ground, winter low sun is a genuine gain, and a fixed dark treatment that solves July costs you in January. The product answer is something you can put up and take down on a schedule rather than something permanently in the way, which is why automation earns its keep out here more than it does in the town's interior sections. A sun sensor or an astronomical timer works when the sun path is predictable and unobstructed, and on the section grid off Mt. Comfort Road it's exactly that. The openings themselves follow the town's standard post-1995 pattern: drywall returns, no applied casing, squareness unverified for this cluster.

What we specify most in Stone Grove and Golden Grove

The rear elevation gets the engineering and the front gets the appearance. That split is driven by the field behind the house rather than by taste. On the rear we're solving low angle glare and summer heat load on glass with nothing in front of it, in a town whose street trees are fifteen years old at best. On the front we're solving what the house looks like from Golden Grove Drive and the three arms of Ricks Drive. Nationally, custom window treatments run $250 to $2,600 per window, with motorized at $300 to $1,500 installed. No installed price for McCordsville or Hancock County is published, so the quote comes off the per opening schedule. We're insured and insured, and IC 24-5-11 puts the scope and the total price on a written contract for any residential job over $150.

Stone Grove and Golden Grove on the east side of McCordsville

This is the rural edge of McCordsville, out toward Mt. Comfort Road and SR 234 rather than toward Geist. Tuttle Orchards is about five miles east. The verified streets in the cluster are Stone Grove Court, Golden Grove Drive and Golden Grove Court, Alexander Ridge Drive, the East, West and South arms of Ricks Drive, and Stoneview, Crestview and Vistaview Trails. Schools are Mt. Vernon Community School Corporation: McCordsville Elementary, then Mt. Vernon Middle School and Mt. Vernon High School. The section roads around the cluster are N 400 W, N 475 W, N 500 W and W 900 N. That grid is why exposure here stays uniform across the whole cluster rather than varying lot by lot the way it does on the town's curvilinear interior streets.
