If from the appraisers’ report it appears that the real property claimed as a homestead can be divided without material injury, the court, by an order, shall direct the appraisers to set off to the claimant so much of the real property, including the residence, as will amount in value to the homestead exemption. The execution may be enforced against the remainder of the real property.
