Focus On: Flummerfelt Manufactured Home Communities: Country Club Estates, Heather Glen, Knollridge, and Sunridge Estates in Nevada
How long has Flummerfelt Homes been in business?
41 years
Is your housing already established, in the process of being established, or completed and already has people living in it?
We have four completed, but growing, manufactured home communities in the City of Nevada.
Where, in the community, is the housing you provide located? Country Club Estates is located east of S-14 and south of Highway 30. Heather Glen is located west of S-14 and south of Highway 30. Knollridge is located in the northwest section of Nevada, west of S-14. Sunridge Estates is located in the northeast part of Nevada at the intersection of 10th Street and T Avenue.
Approximately how many housing units do your manufactured communities presently provide? We have approximately 360 homes in all four communities in Nevada, with plenty of room for growth.
What do you feel is special about the location of your manufactured home communities?
Country Club Estates and Heather Glen are located near Highway 30 making them ideal for commuters. The Knollridge and Sunridge Estates communities are woven into the fabric of the community for those who love being part of long-established neighborhoods.
What types of amenities do you provide with your housing?
First and foremost, we operate safe and clean communities. We have a strenuous application process to assure we are bringing in quality neighbors. We are immensely proud of our communities. Each one of our properties has unique amenities, but they are all operated with great attention to detail. Our team drives through the communities each morning to assure things are neat and tidy.
What population(s) is best served by the housing you are providing?
Our communities provide quality, stable housing options for families, seniors and workers, alike.
Was any grant funding or supplemental funding supplied to help make this project possible? In the extreme makeover of the former Homeacres Mobile Home Court, which is now Sunridge Estates, we have taken advantage of the City’s Neighborhood Improvement Program, in the removal of 35 dilapidated homes.
What do you love about having a business/project in the City of Nevada?
We love the small-town atmosphere and the many events held each year. Most of our team chooses to live and shop in Nevada.
What makes this a desirable community for people to live in?
There are many reasons that make Nevada desirable. First is affordability. The cost of living in Nevada is below the national average and has many affordable housing options. Nevada is centrally located with easy access to major highways. There is a strong sense of community and civic pride. The parks and trail system here add to an already high quality of life. Safety — Nevada is a very safe place to call home.
