49th Place East

Clan McNulty's home in Palmetto, FL.

49th Place East is the current home of Clan McNulty in Palmetto, FL. The house is a 2400 sq ft, two-story, four bedroom, two-and-a-half bath home at the end of a cul de sac in the Foster's Creek subdivison.

The home was a lucky find for Clan McNulty. When home-shopping before their move to Palmetto for Debbie's work, they came across the house half-completed in Foster's Creek. The builders, Windward Homes, had started the house on order from another couple. The couple had requested the optional 9-foot ceilings downstairs, and the masons laying the cinderblock never got the message. They finished the ground floor with eight-foot ceilings, and the framers were halfway done with the second floor when the owners came by and saw the mistake. Windward gave them the option of taking the home at a discount, or Windward would build them a new home in the subdivision with nine-foot ceilings. The couple chose the latter, and suddenly Windward was stuck with an "inventory" house which they needed to sell quickly.

Debbie and Kevin had come to see the house on the Saturday after all this happened, and were offered a fantastic deal on the house which they couldn't pass up. They were even in time to choose their floor coverings and countertops.

Move-In

Prior to moving to 49th Place, Kevin, Debbie, Sean and Erin lived in Tallahassee, FL at McFarlane Drive. The house in Palmetto was finished in November 2001...almost one month after the family had to move to Palmetto for their new jobs. That meant a overly-lengthy stay in a suite at Shoney's Inn in Ellenton, making move-in day even sweeter!
