Claridge Farm Window Treatment From Carmel Window Treatments

Local Window Treatment Experience in Claridge Farm

219 houses, none smaller than 3,600 square feet

Nine consecutive construction years, 1990 through 1998, with no gaps and nothing recorded since, produces an unusually uniform stock. The same builder elevations, the same window sizes and the same two story entry treatment repeat down the street, so a measure at one house is a reasonable guide to the next in a way it never is in Home Place or in a mixed vintage plat. Builder attribution for Claridge Farm was not verified, so we do not name one.

Recorded floor area runs 3,600 to 7,823 square feet and 209 of the 219 parcels are recorded at two stories, which is 95%. Deeded lots run 0.33 to 0.78 acres for the standard parcel plus one 7.79 acre common parcel. Architecture is 1990s two story traditional at estate scale, with Georgian and Federal influenced brick elevations and some French provincial and Tudor detailing. Assessed values run $625,100 to $1,264,000 with the middle of the distinct value distribution near $840,000.

Mulled banks, arched heads, and 32 to 48 openings

The vocabulary is 1990s estate: a two story foyer with a palladian or elliptical fanlight, arched transoms on the front elevation, bay and bow projections, and multi unit mulled assemblies in the great room and the breakfast area. A two story great room with a stacked or arched window group is the norm at this size and date rather than the exception. Where Springmill Ponds gives you a predictable 24 to 34 openings, Claridge Farm gives you 32 to 48, and they are larger.

Because the price point favored wood casing, jambs here are generally deeper and cleaner than in mid market stock of the same date, so inside mount is more often available than it is elsewhere in 1990s Carmel. Drywall returns still turn up in the two story foyer and on the stair. Twenty seven to thirty five years of settling means a diagonal check on everything, with particular attention to the wide mulled openings, which move the most and matter the most when they do.

What we specify at Claridge Farm

The order here is a project rather than a purchase, so the sequence matters. We measure the whole house in one visit, resolve the mulled assemblies and the two tall glass areas first because they carry the cost and the lead time, then work the ordinary rooms around them. Ordering as one order keeps the dye lots and the hardware finishes consistent across rooms that are visible from one another, which in a house of this plan type is most of the main floor.

Streets, landmarks and schools

Six streets, all named for Cornish estates and gardens, which makes them unique search terms in Indiana: Claridge, Chyverton, Glendurgan, Gwynmere, Helford and Pembrooke. The plat sits off the 116th Street corridor between Ditch Road and Spring Mill, with the Crooked Stick land immediately to the west. Residents route to 116th and to Ditch rather than out to Michigan Road, and the compactness of the plat means most of the neighborhood is within sight of the same two or three streets.

The subdivision association

Claridge Farm has a subdivision association. Whether it runs a standing architectural review of exterior changes was not verified, and no published covenant text setting a color or type requirement for window coverings was located here or in any other named Carmel subdivision, so we will not tell you a rule exists. What does apply in a plat built out in nine consecutive years to a consistent set of elevations is visual continuity: the front elevations relate to one another, and a treatment that respects the arched heads and the mulled proportions will look right from the street. If your documents say something specific, bring them to the measure.
