About Smokey Row Estates

Local Window Treatment Experience in Smokey Row Estates

Johnson County is platted on the section line grid, and Smokey Row Estates sits directly on one of those lines. Smokey Row Road runs east to west, so the houses that front it face north or south, and that is a planning advantage no other Bargersville neighborhood on our list gives you. A south facing front elevation takes high summer sun at a steep angle and low winter sun straight through the glass, which are two different problems in one room. A north facing elevation gets flat, even light all year and almost no direct gain, which changes both the fabric and the frame material we would put there.</p><p style="font-size:16px;color:#4a5a6a;line-height:1.75;margin:16px 0 0">The second thing to know is that 80 parcels does not mean 80 identical houses. The lot range runs 0.24 to 0.73 acre around a 0.344 acre median, which is wide for a plat this small, so setbacks and house sizes vary noticeably from Lindsey Circle to Shelby Circle. Recorded styles include ranch as well as two story traditional, and a ranch measures differently: lower header heights, wider openings on the principal rooms, and no second floor to complicate a motorized run. We size a Smokey Row Estates job on the house in front of us, not on the plat average.

We have served Smokey Row Estates homeowners through the full range of window treatment needs, from inspections and repairs to full replacements. Whatever the system, our Bargersville crew approaches every project with clear communication and respect for your property.

The Housing Here

Smokey Row Estates housing: 80 parcels, ranch and two story, 3.2 acres of common ground

The county layer returns 80 parcels whose legal description begins SMOKEY ROW ESTATES, and that figure includes common area parcels totaling about 3.2 acres. Section 1 is recorded with lot numbers running to 76 or more. Lot size is sourced from the ACRES attribute: a median near 0.344 acre with a typical range of 0.24 to 0.73. Recorded architectural styles are two story traditional and ranch, which puts this plat in the same mixed category as Kensington Grove rather than the single style production plats like Copperleaf. Build era is not directly sourced, and Johnson County publishes no year built attribute, so we do not quote one.

The 3.2 acres of common area is worth pausing on. For an 80 lot plat that is a high proportion of open ground, and it means some houses look out at maintained open space rather than at a neighbor. Combined with a lot range that stretches to 0.73 acre, house to house spacing here varies more than in the uniform 0.20 acre Bradford Place plat a short distance away. Practically, the privacy calculation changes from room to room within one house on Oakton Way, and the treatment we would specify for a side window backing common ground is not the treatment we would specify for one facing a neighbor at close range.

What It Means For Your Windows

North or south: the one Bargersville plat with a predictable sun angle

Working range is 18 to 24 openings, with the standard post 2000 production profile expected at the casing and openings that should measure square for stock of this era. The distinguishing variable is orientation, and here it is knowable in advance. Because the plat takes its access from an east to west section line road, principal elevations run north or south rather than scattering the way Kensington Grove's courts and circle do. That means we can walk into a Smokey Row Estates house with a working hypothesis about which rooms need solar control and which need heat retention, then confirm it with a compass instead of building the whole plan from scratch.

South facing rooms take a high steep sun in July, when Indianapolis averages an 85.2F high, and a low direct sun in December that reaches deep into the room. Those two conditions want different things, which is why a fixed louver angle is a compromise and an adjustable one is not. North facing rooms get flat even light and very little gain, but they lose heat on a January night at a 20.9F average low, and that is a fabric decision rather than a glare decision. We record the bearing of every elevation at the measure appointment and write it on the order next to the three point measurements.

North and south, not scattered

Smokey Row Road runs east to west on the Johnson County section line, so this plat's principal elevations face north or south. That is genuinely unusual in Bargersville, where Kensington Grove, Copperleaf and Bradford Place all scatter orientation through curvilinear streets and courts. It means the solar plan for a Smokey Row Estates house can be drafted before the appointment and confirmed at it, which shortens the whole conversation.

Ranch plans measure differently

Recorded styles here include ranch alongside two story traditional. A ranch carries lower header heights, wider openings in the principal rooms, and no second floor run to plan around. Lower headers make an outside mount to the ceiling line a real option rather than an awkward one, and wide openings need a center support bracket on any headrail over about 72 inches. We do not measure a ranch the way we measure a two story.

Wood movement on the south elevation

A south facing room in this plat takes direct low sun for months and runs warmer than the rest of the house. Hardwood louvers and basswood slats move with heat and humidity, and a bowed stile shows against a straight opening. We keep hardwood on the north and east rooms and put composite where the sun and the moisture are, which is a mixed specification and completely normal in a Smokey Row Estates house.

A 0.24 to 0.73 acre spread inside 80 lots

That range is wide for a plat this small, so setbacks and house sizes vary between Lindsey Circle and Shelby Circle. Add roughly 3.2 acres of common area and some rooms look at open ground while others face a neighbor. The privacy answer changes room by room within one house, which is why we walk the whole house before quoting rather than pricing a package by opening count.

What We Specify Here

What we specify in Smokey Row Estates

The specification here follows the compass. South elevations get material that tolerates heat and adjustable control that can handle both a steep July sun and a low December one; north elevations get insulating fabric and whatever holds the light the room already has. Because the plat runs both ranch and two story plans across an 0.24 to 0.73 acre lot spread, we quote by the opening rather than by a house package. National shutter figures run $175 to $800 per window and custom soft treatments $250 to $2,600, which is context rather than an Indianapolis price. Custom fabrication runs 2 to 5 weeks, and IC 24-5-11 requires a written contract on residential work over $150.

Hardwood blinds, 2 inch basswood

For the north and east rooms, where flat light and low heat let real wood stay stable and show its grain. Basswood is lighter than composite, so it hangs better on a wide ranch opening, and a wide headrail still gets a center support bracket. The disclosure is simple: we do not put basswood over a kitchen sink or in a bath, because wood moves with moisture and a warped slat never comes back.

Composite plantation shutters

For the south facing front elevations along Smokey Row Road, where a steep July sun and a low December sun hit the same glass in the same year. An adjustable louver handles both in a way a fixed fabric cannot, and composite tolerates the heat that would move a hardwood stile. Louver size gets picked against opening height rather than by habit, and a divider rail lets the top and bottom halves work independently.

Cordless cellular shades

For the north facing rooms that get flat light and lose heat on a 20.9F January night. DOE and ORNL testing found cellular shades saved up to 20 percent of heating energy and up to 15 percent of total heating and cooling energy against a bare window. Cordless lift keeps the cord out of the room in line with ANSI/WCMA A100.1-2022, and the standard casing depth here takes the headrail inside the opening.

Getting Around

Smokey Row Estates streets, common ground and the corridor it is named for

Five streets serve the community, and only four of them are internal: Streamside Drive, Lindsey Circle, Shelby Circle and Oakton Way, plus frontage on Smokey Row Road itself. Two circles for 80 parcels makes this one of the simplest layouts in Bargersville, and residents here describe where they live by street rather than by section. Streamside Drive is shared with the adjoining Waters Edge plat, so that street name alone will not tell you which community a house sits in. The plat sits in White River Township inside the Bargersville fire protection district, mail runs 46143, and every sampled parcel returns Center Grove Community School Corporation.

Association Rules

The Smokey Row Estates association and its 3.2 acres

Smokey Row Estates is one of two Bargersville communities where an owners association can actually be evidenced. County parcel records show roughly 3.2 acres of dedicated common area inside an 80 lot plat, a high proportion for that size, and common ground has to be owned and maintained by an entity, which points to a funded association. What is not on record is the association's name, whether it operates an architectural review committee, or whether any covenant addresses window coverings. No recorded covenant on street facing treatments was found anywhere in this town. Bargersville's ordinance requiring similar floor plans to carry different exterior elements is the only verifiable design control, and it governs elevations rather than what hangs inside the glass.

Common Questions

Smokey Row Estates Window Treatment FAQ

Questions we hear most often from Smokey Row Estates homeowners.

Because in this plat the answer is knowable and it changes the specification. Smokey Row Road runs east to west along the Johnson County section line, so principal elevations here face north or south rather than scattering the way they do in the curvilinear plats. A south room takes a steep July sun and a low December sun through the same glass; a north room gets flat light and loses heat on a 20.9F January night. Those want different fabric and sometimes different material. We confirm the bearing with a compass at the appointment and write it on the order.
Both, in different rooms, and the split follows the sun. Hardwood blinds and shutters show grain and take finish beautifully, and they belong on the north and east side of the house where heat and moisture stay moderate. Composite belongs on the south facing front along Smokey Row Road, over a kitchen sink and in any bath, because wood moves and a bowed stile or a warped slat shows against a straight opening and does not recover. A mixed specification across one house is normal here. National shutter pricing runs $175 to $800 per window.
The evidence says yes, and we will be precise about what kind of evidence. County parcel records show roughly 3.2 acres of dedicated common area inside this 80 lot plat, and common ground has to be held and maintained by an entity, which in Indiana practice means an association. The name is not sourced, no architectural review committee is on record, and no covenant addressing window coverings was found. Your closing packet is the document that governs, so read the section on street facing treatments before selecting a color for the rooms that front Smokey Row Road.
It changes several things. Ranch plans carry lower header heights, so the distance between the top of the opening and the ceiling is often small enough that an outside mount reads as intentional rather than as an afterthought, and that is the cleanest way to kill a light gap. Principal room openings tend to be wider, so any headrail past about 72 inches gets a center support bracket to stop the sag. And with no second floor there is no high unit to motorize, which usually takes real money out of a quote compared with the two story plans in the same plat.
Streamside Drive is shared frontage between the two plats, so the street cannot answer it by itself. County records keep them separate: 80 parcels under SMOKEY ROW ESTATES with a 0.344 acre median and about 3.2 acres of common area, 95 parcels under WATERS EDGE across Sections 1 and 2A with lot size not separately sampled. The recommendation differs, because Waters Edge water lots have permanently open rear exposure and Smokey Row Estates runs on a predictable north to south orientation. Your recorded legal description settles it, and we will confirm at the appointment.
By the opening, not by the house, and this plat is a good example of why. Lots run 0.24 to 0.73 acre across only 80 parcels, so house sizes and opening counts vary more than the small parcel count suggests, and a ranch and a two story on the same street will not carry the same schedule. National shutter figures run $175 to $800 per window, driven by size, material, louver size and whether the opening takes a divider rail. Custom fabrication runs 2 to 5 weeks after the order, and IC 24-5-11 requires a written contract with scope and total price over $150.
