Braemar Glen

What Braemar Glen's governing documents say

Braemar Glen is a single-family home subdivision in Glendale, AZ, governed by restrictive covenants recorded in 1973. These covenants run with the land and apply to all lot owners, dictating how property can be used, built upon, and maintained. The document does not establish an active homeowners association but allows for one to be formed later by a majority of owners.

• Use restrictions: Each lot may only be used for a private, single-family residence. No business, apartment, lodging, or hospital uses are permitted. No temporary structures, trailers, or tents; a residence must be fully completed before occupancy.
• Leasing & rentals: Renting or leasing individual rooms within a residence or accessory buildings is prohibited. Only the entire lot (with its improvements) may be rented or leased.
• Building & lot standards: Minimum floor area: 900 sq ft for a one-story dwelling, 1,200 sq ft for a multi-story dwelling. Setbacks must comply with local codes; eaves and open porches cannot encroach on another lot. Re-subdividing lots is prohibited except to combine adjoining lots.
• Architectural review: All construction, alterations, fences, and color schemes require written approval from an architect or designated agent. Plans must be submitted and approved within 30 days. The reviewer can disapprove if plans are incomplete or not in harmony with surroundings.
• Vehicles & storage: Abandoned or inoperable vehicles cannot be stored on a lot visible from other lots or streets. No oil drilling, mining, or tanks above ground; fuel tanks must be buried or screened. Clotheslines, service yards, wood piles must be screened from view.
• Animals: No livestock (cattle, sheep, horses, goats, pigs, rabbits, poultry) may be kept. The document does not address domestic pets like dogs or cats.
• What this document doesn't cover: This document does not establish a homeowners association, specify fees or assessments, or contain age restrictions. It predates any active HOA; a later association may be formed. No mention of insurance, maintenance obligations, or amenities.
