What Greenfield Acres's governing documents say

Greenfield Acres is a single-family residential community in Phoenix, AZ (Maricopa County), where you own your individual lot and home. The community has extensive architectural and landscaping rules enforced by a Homeowner's Association, and residents pay annual assessments for common area maintenance.

• What you own & maintain: You own your individual lot and the single-family residence you build on it, plus any HOA-approved accessory structures like a garage or guest house. You are responsible for maintaining your property, landscaping, and structures per the covenants.
• Home construction & design approval: All structures require HOA approval before construction. Homes must be new construction with masonry/brick/stucco walls, tile or wood-shake roofs with gable/hip design, minimum 2,500 sq ft livable (or 1,800 on grade + 2,500 total for two-story), and minimum 2-car side-entrance garages. The HOA charges up to $150 per plan review and must respond within 30 days or approval is automatic.
• Lot size & setbacks: Minimum lot width is 75 feet. All structures must meet setback requirements: 40 feet from front and rear, 30 feet from sides, 20 feet from street-side property lines.
• Fencing: Side yards must have masonry fencing from residence to property line. Back and side yards require 6-foot masonry block wall OR 5-foot galvanized steel/vinyl fence (1-7/8" posts, minimum 3 rails). Specific corner lots bordering streets must use masonry. All fencing requires HOA approval.
