Morse Landing and Morse Landing West: 359 homes, 43 years, 60 percent two story

The two plats are quoted together because the county records them together under one name pattern, and because their build histories interleave. The recorded years run 1981 and 1983, then unbroken from 1985 through 2009, then 2012 to 2014, 2016 to 2019, and one at 2024. That's the second widest build out in Cicero after Cicero Shores' forty years. Architecture follows it: 1980s ranch and split level in the earliest sections, 1990s and 2000s two story traditional through the long middle, and lake facing custom on the water lots in every era. No production builder was identified for the plats, which is the standard finding across Cicero.

215 of the 359 parcels are recorded at 2.0 stories and the balance is single story and 1.5-story stock concentrated in the 1981 to 1990 sections. Recorded residential floor area runs 1,220 to 7,844 square feet, a 6.4 times spread, and gross assessed values run $198,000 to $1,575,800 with the middle of the distinct value distribution near $381,000. That midpoint is roughly 30 percent above Cicero Shores and about 3.5 times Hidden Bay's. Lot acreage wasn't pulled separately for either plat, so we don't publish one. What the numbers say plainly is that this is Cicero's tall stock, and tall stock changes the hardware conversation.

Height, coves and four decades of casing in Morse Landing

Height is the defining variable. With 60 percent of the 359 parcels at two stories, this plat has more foyer glass, more stairwell openings and more second level arched and palladian heads than anywhere else in Cicero. Those openings are 12 to 18 feet off the floor, which rules out a cord or a wand and puts you into motorization or into leaving them bare. Below them, the 1990s and 2000s stock brings bay nooks, and a bay wants three separate treatments with the corner posts respected rather than one shade dragged across the opening. The 1980s sections bring picture windows and split level landing openings instead, at a completely different scale.

Casing spans four decades under one name. The 1980s houses have shallow jambs, the 1990s and 2000s houses have returns wrapped into the opening with no applied casing, and the 2016 to 2024 houses have square set openings with real depth. Squareness spans 2 to 44 years of settling, so three point measurement is the method rather than a precaution. Exposure divides three ways: water and cove facing lots with no tree line, cove lots looking at a close far bank across a narrow stretch, and back lot streets that behave like any 1980s suburban lot. Sunfish and Catamaran do not get the same answer as Quiet Bay.

What we specify in Morse Landing and Morse Landing West

The specification here starts with reach, then goes to exposure. With 215 of 359 parcels at two stories, the high glass gets solved first, because it's the part a homeowner can't fix later with a different fabric. Then the cove elevation gets its openness factor, and the back lot streets get whatever the room actually needs, which is often less than people expect. The 1981 to 1990 sections are a separate conversation with shallow jambs and 40 years of settling behind them. National pricing runs $300 to $1,500 per window installed on motorized, $250 to $2,600 on custom treatments, and $60 to $600 on stock shades. Custom fabrication is 2 to 5 weeks, and we're insured and insured.

Coves, sailing streets and the Morse Landing shoreline

Morse Landing and Morse Landing West sit west of the town grid on the Morse Reservoir shoreline, reached from Stringtown Pike and 236th Street, and residents describe where they live by cove rather than by section. The street names are a sailing set that exists nowhere else in the town: Morse Landing, Quiet Bay, Moonlight Bay, Catamaran, Lanyard, Spinner, Sunfish and White Water. The reservoir itself was completed in 1956, covers about 1,500 acres and is owned by Citizens Energy Group. Schooling is Hamilton Heights School Corporation, which serves Cicero, Arcadia and roughly 100 square miles of Jackson and White River townships from a single campus set.
