builder philosophy
ZMC Urban Homes was founded by
Patrick Stroup who has over 32 years of
experience in the homebuilding business.
Having built over 130 new homes in Fall
Creek Place and surrounding neighbor-
hoods, he understands that homebuilding
is more than just assembling a stack of
sticks and bricks, collecting a check, and
handing over a set of keys. He knows you
are not just purchasing a product but a
process as well. Your experience through-
out that process will determine your satisfaction with your new home as much as the quality and craftsmanship.
We view your home as the result of a partnership between ZMC and you. We encourage you to make the custom changes that fit your lifestyle. One of our primary goals when we work with you is to en- sure that the space, features, and rooms in your new home don’t go unused or under-used. We want to build the most livable customized home just for you.
As in any partnership, there are responsibilities on both sides but we are there throughout to explain what needs to be done and what to expect. Most importantly, we listen. You will have a lot of choices to make when you build a new home but we will be there every step
of the way to assist, advise, and ensure you feel confident in each of those decisions. Building a new home is one of the biggest financial and emotional investments you will make. It is exciting and maybe even a little scary at first but the rewards of realizing your dreams are well worth it. You can trust ZMC Urban Homes to help you get there.
show home approach
The design concept was to create both open areas and privacy in one home. Wide-open space is great, but paying attention to sight lines is also important, and rooms meant for privacy are orientated with this mind.
The stairway with natural light flowing into the upper level cre- ates openness. On the first level, the homeowners wanted the living room and the kitchen to be more connected for day-to-day living, so the placement of the dining room and living room in the original plans was switched. A central island in the kitchen creates a circu- lar pattern—perfect for entertaining—and the owners’ suggestion of an overhead door enclosing the covered deck created extended outdoor living.
After living in a Broad Ripple bungalow for the last 10 years, a large master suite and walk-in closet were at the top of the homeowners’ must-have list. The original floor plan called for a balcony off the master bedroom, but they knew they wouldn’t use it, so we enclosed the balcony and made it the walk-in closet.
