Quick Answer

Houses in this part of New Palestine tend to share a few traits, and those traits shape what gets specified. The questions below cover what usually applies here and where individual openings still differ.

  • Services: faux wood blinds, wood blinds, vertical blinds, aluminum mini blinds
  • Service area: Cedar Creek and Cedar Cove, New Palestine, IN and surrounding areas
  • Two different timelines apply. New custom product takes weeks because it has to be made. Repairs to what's already hanging, a cord lock, a ladder string, a chain that jumped the clutch, are usually far quicker.
  • Insured and bonded

About Cedar Creek and Cedar Cove

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.

The Housing Here

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.

Built
Not individually sourced. The street network sits in the town's 1990s-2010s band: 184 New Palestine units from the 1990s and 483 from 2000 to 2019, town median year built 2002.
Homes
Not published. Hancock County exposes no queryable parcel year built or subdivision field, and the county index records Cedar Creek and Cedar Creek Estates separately. Seven verified street names carry the two plat names.
Typical size
Not published at parcel level. House size and lot size are measured on site rather than estimated from the plat name.

What It Means For Your Windows

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.

What We Specify Here

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.

Getting Around

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.

Common Questions

Cedar Creek and Cedar Cove Window Treatment FAQ

Questions we hear most often from Cedar Creek and Cedar Cove homeowners.

An association exists for this community, but no recorded covenant on street facing window covering color or reflective coverings was found anywhere in New Palestine, and no name or architectural review body is published for Cedar Creek or Cedar Cove. So treat the rule as unknown rather than absent. Before ordering anything visible from Cedar Creek Drive, ask your board for the covenant in writing. It costs one email and it beats discovering a restriction after custom fabrication has started, since a custom order can't be returned to stock.
Because the plats were built in phases. The county index lists Cedar Creek and Cedar Creek Estates separately, and the town wide era counts put 184 units in the 1990s and 483 between 2000 and 2019, so two houses under one name can be a decade apart. Older phases have settled and need a three point measure on every opening; newer ones measure close to factory square. Add that the curvilinear streets give each lot its own exposure, and the same plan genuinely needs different fabric on different elevations.
Three honest options. Leave it clear, which is what most Cedar Creek owners choose and which keeps the front elevation reading the way the builder drew it. Fit a shaped panel that follows the curve and stays fixed. Or square off the whole assembly with an outside mounted treatment above the arch, which covers everything but changes the look of the house from the street. What doesn't work is a flat shade across the springline, because the two curved corners stay lit and every visitor sees them.
Depth in these openings is usually workable for an inside mount, so that's the starting point. The catch is what an outside mount needs: drywall returns with no applied casing means there's no trim to screw into, so brackets have to reach wood framing above the opening. We locate that before quoting rather than after. And remember Lutron publishes a 3/4 inch per side light gap on inside mounted Roller 20/64, so if a bedroom on Cedar Cove Court needs true darkness, we'll talk about side channels.
Sixteen to twenty four openings for the dominant two story Cedar Creek plan, fewer for the ranch plans in the same network. That's inferred from the era rather than counted from a survey, so the real number comes off the walk through. Doing the whole house at once is usually cheaper per opening than doing it in two rounds, and it removes the dye lot problem entirely. If budget says stage it, stage it by room rather than by floor so the mismatch never lands on one elevation.
Yes, in nearly every case. A bay is three finished widths meeting at angles, each with its own 1/16 inch per side factory deduction and its own light gap, and the panels have to clear each other as they drop. We measure the return angles as well as the widths so the center hembar doesn't catch a side panel. In a Cedar Creek kitchen bay taking early east sun, we also spec the liner, because bare woven wood will show pinholes straight across the table.
