JK Forever Homes Offers Hoosier Heights Lots for Tell City Custom Homes

JK Forever Homes has opened Phase 1 reservations for Hoosier Heights, a new subdivision just outside Tell City that offers 33 customizable lots and a streamlined reservation process with no upfront cost to reserve a parcel. The development, which developers and press materials value at $10.3 million, is supported by Indiana’s READI program and targets buyers seeking modern, energy-efficient custom homes close to Tell City services.

Phase 1 lots range from roughly 0.25 acre to more than 0.5 acre and sit off State Road 237. All initial grading is complete and new paved streets and infrastructure are in place, with lots designed to preserve mature tree buffers and spacing for privacy and curb appeal. Utilities listed as available to each lot include natural gas, electric, water, sewer, and high-speed internet access, placing the sites in a position to move quickly from reservation to build start once buyers finalize plans.

Buyers may choose from ten base floor plans — each named after a Casebolt family member — or work with JK Forever Homes on semi-custom designs. Foundation options include slab, crawl space, or basement, and standard energy-related features cited for the homes include tankless gas water heaters, gas furnaces, and blown-in cellulose insulation. JK Forever Homes, founded by Kourtney and Jeff Casebolt in 2016, is a family-run firm with roughly 15 employees and previous local experience including The Highlands subdivision.

The READI-supported $10.3 million framing of the project signals state-level support for local housing development and infrastructure investment. For Perry County, a modest infill of 33 lots can have outsized local effects: it adds to the county’s housing supply, creates short-term construction employment during vertical build-out, and expands the property tax base once homes are complete and assessed. JK Forever Homes’ local track record and the availability of energy-efficient features may also influence operating costs for new homeowners and make the homes more attractive to buyers focused on long-term affordability.

Several details remain to be confirmed for buyers and policymakers: sources did not publish lot or base-home pricing, the exact structure or dollar amount of READI funding was not itemized, and the reservation terms beyond the "no upfront cost" statement were not detailed. Interested buyers may contact developer Kourtney Casebolt at 812-608-0159 or by email at Kourtney@jkforeverhomes.com. Perry County Development Corporation staffer Erin Emerson can be reached at 812-547-8377 or erin@pickperry.com for questions about local economic development and funding context.

Perry County’s marketing copy frames the project as community-focused, running a section headlined "More Than Just Lots - It's About Building Dreams" and noting that "Hoosier Heights represents everything we love about Perry County: thoughtful planning, genuine care for community, and the kind of personal attention that makes all the difference when you’re building your future." For residents, Hoosier Heights offers a measurable increase in housing options close to Tell City; next steps for the project will clarify price points, build timelines, and whether additional phases will follow.
