Roosen Gardens

What Roosen Gardens's governing documents say

Roosen Gardens is a single-family residential subdivision in Phoenix, AZ, subject to a set of recorded restrictive covenants (deed restrictions) that run with the land. These covenants regulate minimum house size, setbacks, land uses, and prohibit businesses, livestock, and certain structures on the lots.

• Residential use only: All lots are restricted to single-family residential use. No business, trade, or commercial activity may be conducted on any lot, and no advertising signs (except small 'For Sale' or 'For Rent' signs) are allowed.
• Minimum house size & setbacks: Any dwelling must have a ground floor area of at least 1,000 square feet (excluding open porches, pergolas, or attached garage). The front wall must be set back between 20 and 45 feet from the front lot line.
• Prohibited animals and structures: No livestock or poultry may be kept on any lot. No fence or wall more than 6 feet high (or 3 feet in front yards) is permitted. Detached garages or storage rooms must be no more than 16 feet in height and set back at least 3 feet from interior lot lines.
• Covenant enforcement & amendment: The restrictions are binding on all owners and automatically extend for successive periods unless changed by a majority vote of lot owners. Violation may result in legal action for injunction and damages, but does not affect the lien of any mortgage.
• What this document doesn't cover: This document does not establish an association with dues, architectural review committees, or common areas. It contains no rules about leasing minimums, pets (beyond livestock), parking, or assessments.
