Cumberland Hills Addition
The new Cumberland Hills Addition is located in a highly-desirable south Tyler location convenient to Paluxy Drive, South Broadway and the new Loop 49. Current offerings by Johnson Humphrey Homes are located at 1605, 1609 and 1613 Skidmore Lane. Asking prices range from $165,000 to $200,000. Custom homes are built turnkey: after the plans are completed and a homesite is chosen, a price can be agreed upon. A specification (spec) sheet showing what amenities are included in the price will be included as part of the contract. This spec sheet covers everything, including dollar allowances for selections to be made during construction, e.g., brick color, stone, flooring, lighting, appliances, etc. All of these fine homes feature top of the line exterior and interior amenities as discussed below. Contact us today for details. Enviro-Tech Foam InsulationThis spray foam insulation is the best on the market today. Practically no air can penetrate Enviro-Tech's Spray-Foam Insulation, plus it prevents mold and mildew (cannot be damaged by water). This procedure provides a true thermal seal and savings of 30% to 50% on energy costs per month. The attic air is roughly 6 degrees different over the conditioned area of the home and therefore requires no ceiling insulation. Other Exterior and Interior AmenitiesFRONT DOORS - are made of fiberglass and can be stained or painted. Wood exterior doors often have issues in a very short period including warping, swelling and discoloring, while fiberglass doors eliminate many of these problems and are known for longevity and beauty. 25 YEAR - Architectural shingles have the ability to show a linear perspective depth and shadows that 20 year 3-tab shingles do not. (Many starter or garden type homes use the cheaper less attractive 20-year lightweight shingle). MASONRY WORK – includes real stone and Acme brick with either white, beige or gray mortar. The reason mortar color is important is that it makes up almost 20% of your homes facade where brick or stone is being used. Mortar color makes a huge difference in your home's appearance and street appeal. WINDOWS - are manufactured by All Seasons in Longview, Texas. They are energy efficient with double panes and a Low–E glass coating to reduce fading of floors and upholstery. HEATING AND AIR CONDITIONING - Amana units with installation by C. Woods Company have one of the best warranties in the business. Low SEER ratings and smaller tonnage requirements are positive factors due to the state-of-the-art Enviro-Tech insulation. FIREPLACES - (some models) are zero clearance with real wood or gas log capabilities, and are topped with a man-made Austin Stone chimney and custom chimney cap cover. SIDING - Alcoa siding has a limited lifetime warranty against chipping, cracking, etc. By selecting a wicker or similar color, maintenance is extremely minimal. Not painting your homes exterior every 3 to 4 years will save you thousands of dollars.  WATER HEATING - Rinnai 2532Ffu
(Natural Gas) saves from 21% up to 50% according to
GAMA Estimated Annual Operation Cost Guide. This type of hot water
system (tank-less instantaneous)
does not retain any water except for the water in the pipe. The
absence of a tank saves energy because tank heaters have to reheat
water in the tank as it cools (standby loss). These ratings of
up to 50% compare gas and electric hot water heaters.
CENTRAL VACUUM - if you have never had a central vacuum system, you will be impressed. Many Allergists recommend them because they eliminate the circulation of germ-ridden dust. With 2 to 3 times the power of conventional uprights, central vacuums are light and easy to use. A handy attachment will keep your automobile clean. KITCHEN COUNTERTOPS – Polished granite (2cm thick), or quartz (upon availability), in a variety of colors. CABINETS AND TRIM - all are custom built and stained cabinets are made of Maple or Knotty Alder and MDF. Crown moldings (U.S.) (mouldings (U.K., Canada Aus.)) are located in all living areas and 5 5/8” base. ELECTRICAL- Category 5 telephone lines and RG-6 cable are run in 4 rooms for your computer and video needs. PLUMBING – Plumbing is Wirsbo Aquapex Water Distribution System. PEX (Polyethylene Plastic Material (stronger than P.E.)) is run in the attic as opposed to copper in the slab. In a relatively short period of time copper can break down due to abrasion and vibration, where the PEX does not. PEX is better than copper in most cases and future fixtures can be added much easier than conventional copper piping permits. PLUMBING FIXTURES –The master bath has a whirlpool type tub with square twin marble lavatories and framed mirrors. Related Information Taxes - can be estimated by using Smith County’s appraised value times 1.7%. For example: $176,000.00 x 1.7% = $3,000 per annum. SuddenLink - provides Cable TV, Cable Internet and digital phone service for this area - 903.595.4321 Schools - Whitehouse Independent School District schools.
