Eight D.R. Horton plans from 1,601 to 3,062 square feet

Mt. Vernon North is current construction as of spring 2026 and it's the best documented community in Fortville. Eight floorplans, 1,601 to 3,062 square feet, three to five bedrooms, two to three and a half bathrooms, two to three car garages. Pricing runs from $332,900 for the Aria II entry plan to about $425,000 for the Johnstown. What isn't published is a home count, a lot size or a street network beyond the community address at 8576 Denney Street, because Hancock County's assessor GIS carries no queryable parcel record for the plat. So we quote from your plan and your openings, never from a community average.

The stock itself is current national builder product: open layouts, modern finishes, drywall returns with no applied casing anywhere. Openings are new and square, which makes this the second easiest measuring environment in a town where 48.4 percent of the housing predates 1980 and a three point measure is otherwise the default. Shapes are wide fixed units, rectangular transoms over front facing windows, and sliding glass door walls to the rear. Half round arches have largely disappeared from this generation of plans, which removes the templating problem a 1990s Fortville two story creates. Great room glass is plan dependent and shows up at the top of the 3,062 square foot range.

Opening counts from 13 to 30, and what the stair window changes

The published square footage range does most of the work here. A 1,601 square foot Aria II sits near 13 to 18 openings and a 3,062 square foot plan near 22 to 30, so the same community produces quotes that differ by a factor of two. Everything is a drywall return with no casing, which makes the mount decision uniform across the house: inside mount by default, outside mount only where a light gap matters more than the look does. The openings are new and square, so a measurement taken at one bedroom will hold at the matching bedroom, which is not true anywhere in the 1849 plat.

Where the plans diverge is height. A two story plan puts a stair window and an upper hall opening above the reach of anyone standing on the floor, and a corded or wand operated product up there is a product you'll stop using. Where a top of range plan carries great room glass, stack height becomes the question, because a shade tall enough to cover it parks a lot of fabric at the head. Lutron notes that shades 120 inches and taller, or at a 4:1 height to width ratio, get larger light gaps than the standard 3/4 inch per side. Dominant exposure here isn't established, so we take a compass reading at the measure.

What we specify at Mt. Vernon North

Two things shape this list: an opening count somewhere between 13 and 30, and a split between one story and two story plans in the same community. On a 28-opening house at $250 to $2,600 per window nationally, the sensible sequence is bedrooms and the rear elevation first, front rooms second, and anything decorative last. On a 1,601 square foot Aria II you can do the whole house at once. If you are phasing, order by the room and record the product, color and lot, because dye lots move and a shade added next spring on Denney Street may not match the one already hanging beside it.

Denney Street, north Fortville and the Mt. Vernon schools

Mt. Vernon North sits north of the town at 8576 Denney Street. No street network inside the plat has been published beyond that address, so Denney Street is the only name we'll put in writing for it. The community takes its name from the Mt. Vernon Community School Corporation, and the assignment is Fortville Elementary School, then Mt. Vernon Intermediate School and Mt. Vernon Middle School, then Mt. Vernon High School, which a local guide reports ranked 39th in Indiana. North Fortville Pike and State Road 234 are the corridors that connect it back to downtown, Memorial Park and the restaurants on Main Street.

The Mt. Vernon North association

Mt. Vernon North has an HOA, recorded by the local guide alongside the plan and price data. What that association is called, whether it runs an architectural review committee, and whether it has recorded anything about window coverings are all unpublished, and no recorded window covering covenant was found anywhere in Fortville. Treat the rule as unknown rather than as absent, and ask before you order. The practical line is the one associations draw everywhere: interior treatments are rarely governed, exterior products often are. If you're considering a retractable awning or an exterior solar shade over a rear patio at 8576 Denney Street, that's the call to make first.
