Local Window Treatment Experience in Cedar Creek and Cedar Cove
The first question on a Cedar Creek quote is which suffix. Drive, Lane, Place and Way all exist under the Cedar Creek name, and Cedar Cove adds Drive, Court and Way, so a house number without the suffix isn't an address here, it's a guess. That matters more than it sounds. The plats went in across phases, so a house on Cedar Creek Way and a house on Cedar Cove Court can sit a decade apart in head heights and jamb condition while the mail reads nearly the same. We build the cut list per house and per phase, never per name.</p><p style="font-size:16px;color:#4a5a6a;line-height:1.75;margin:16px 0 0">The second question is orientation. Cedar Creek and Cedar Cove run on curvilinear collectors rather than the Sugar Creek Township section grid, so unlike the 1838 plat in old town New Palestine there's no repeating sun pattern from house to house. One lot's great room takes low west sun at five in the afternoon in July, when the Indianapolis normal high is 85.2F, and the identical plan four doors down doesn't. Openness factor therefore gets set per elevation on your lot instead of per plan. Three percent on the room that needs it and 5 percent where the view is the point beats one number applied everywhere.
We have served Cedar Creek and Cedar Cove homeowners through the full range of window treatment needs, from inspections and repairs to full replacements. Whatever the system, our New Palestine crew approaches every project with clear communication and respect for your property.
Cedar Creek and Cedar Cove housing: a phased plat with no published build year
Nothing we could reach dates these plats individually. Hancock County's assessor mapping runs through Beacon and a GeoPower atlas, neither of which exposes a queryable year built field, so there's no parcel record for Cedar Creek Drive or Cedar Cove Court specifically. What is sourced is the two plat structure and the seven street names, both verified against the Indiana statewide parcel layer, plus the town wide distribution: 184 units from the 1990s, 483 from 2000 to 2019, and a median year built of 2002 across all 1,326 New Palestine housing units. That places this community in a band running roughly ten to thirty five years old, which is exactly the range where squareness stops being a safe assumption.
Elevations are two story production traditional with brick fronts, plus ranch plans through parts of the network. No home count, lot size or price band is published for Cedar Creek or Cedar Cove, and we won't quote one, because a made up figure would be worse than the honest gap. What we do instead is count on the walk through. A two story plan of this era in New Palestine runs 16 to 24 openings, and the ranch plans run fewer with different head heights and a different stack problem. Both get written down before a price exists.
Cedar Creek window profile: 16 to 24 openings, two vintages and a bay
Count and square come first. The dominant two story plan here runs 16 to 24 openings, and the community sits ten to thirty five years old, which is the awkward middle of New Palestine's bimodal stock. The newest sections measure close to factory square. The oldest have had a quarter century on Sugar Creek Township clay and won't. So we three point every opening in the older phases and spot check across the newer ones rather than treating one name as one condition. Then the deduction arrives: a standard 1/16 inch per side comes off the finished width, and Lutron publishes an inside mount light gap of 3/4 inch per side on its Roller 20/64, so a nominal fit was never a light tight fit.
Depth in these openings is generally workable, but there's nothing to fasten to. Drywall returns with no applied casing are the rule from the 1990s onward here, and 53.2 percent of New Palestine's stock is 2000 or newer, so an outside mount has to find wood framing above the opening instead of trim. Two shapes are worth planning for: a half round or elliptical transom over the front facing window, which is the era signature in this county, and a breakfast bay off the kitchen. Larger Cedar Creek plans likely carry great room glass, though that isn't verified plan by plan, so we confirm the drop before quoting a long roll.
Give us the suffix, not just the name
Cedar Creek Drive, Cedar Creek Lane, Cedar Creek Place and Cedar Creek Way are four different streets, and Cedar Cove adds Drive, Court and Way on top. A measure booked against the wrong one costs a visit. It costs accuracy too, because the phases aren't the same age, so a cut list built off the wrong house is wrong by more than a house number.
The half round over the front window
An arched transom above the front facing window is the era signature on the Cedar Creek plats. It won't take a headrail, and a shade hung flat across the springline leaves two lit corners nobody accepts. Either leave it clear, which most owners here do, or fit a shaped panel that stays fixed. Every arch is templated on its own, because a nominal radius and a built radius rarely agree.
Breakfast bay math
A bay off a Cedar Cove kitchen isn't one opening. It's three finished widths, each carrying its own 1/16 inch per side deduction and its own light gap, meeting at angles a plain square check won't catch. Inside mounted panels in a bay need clearance so the hembar on the center unit doesn't foul the side ones as it drops. We measure the return angles, not just the widths.
Two phases, one dye lot
If you cover the front of the house now and finish the lower level next spring, order the fabric together. Dye lots shift between production runs, and two pieces of the same nominal color hung a year apart on one Cedar Cove elevation won't read the same in afternoon light. On a phased plat where owners tend to buy in stages, this is the most common regret we hear about.
Three that fit Cedar Creek and Cedar Cove
The brief here is a mid size production plan, somewhere between ten and thirty five years old, drywall returns throughout, an arched transom out front and a bay off the kitchen, on a lot whose orientation nobody can read off the plat. That rules out anything depending on a repeating sun pattern, which is why the answer for the 1838 grid in old town New Palestine doesn't carry over. It also rules out over engineering, because this isn't a 26-opening house with a two story wall of glass. National ranges put custom shades at $250 to $2,600 per window and interior shutters at $175 to $800, and a Cedar Creek job usually splits across both.
Custom shaped shutter panels
For the half round or elliptical transom over the front facing window, a fixed shaped panel is the only treatment that follows the curve without leaving lit corners. It doesn't operate, which is correct: nothing above the springline needs to. We template the actual built curve rather than ordering to a nominal radius, because a 1990s Cedar Creek arch and its drawing are usually a quarter inch apart at least.
Woven wood shades
The breakfast bay wants texture more than it wants engineering, and woven wood gives it while keeping the three panel geometry readable. Be clear about what it does: bare woven wood filters light and never darkens a room, and the weave will show pinholes against low east sun over a Cedar Creek kitchen table. Add a light filtering liner if the bay is where anyone eats breakfast.
Cellular shades with cordless lift
Since orientation varies lot to lot across these curvilinear streets, the bedrooms need a product that performs the same whichever way they face, and cellular does. DOE and ORNL testing found up to 20 percent heating energy and up to 15 percent total heating and cooling energy saved against a bare window, which counts in Climate Zone 5A. Cordless lift keeps loose cord out of a family plan.
Around Cedar Creek and Cedar Cove
Cedar Creek and Cedar Cove sit east of the town core off US 52, with Sugar Creek as the nearest natural feature and the town's 1838 grid a short run west. Addresses here fall inside the Community School Corporation of Southern Hancock County, feeding New Palestine Elementary, Doe Creek Middle and New Palestine High School, which was named a U.S. News Best High School for 2026-27. That catchment is the reason a large share of houses carrying a New Palestine address sit outside the 1,326-unit corporate limits altogether. When you book a measure, confirm the street suffix as well as the number, because seven of them share these two names.
