What Winston Subdivision Homeowners Association Inc's governing documents say

This is a standard single-family HOA declaration for Winston Subdivision in Apex, NC. It binds all lot owners and sets rules for property use, architecture, assessments, and community standards. If you're buying or living here, you'll be subject to these covenants and the HOA's authority.

What you own & maintain: You own your lot and single-family home. The HOA maintains common areas, roads, lighting, signage, and landscaping in common spaces. You must keep your lot clean, mowed, and free of debris, and the HOA can step in and charge you if you don't.
Assessments & fees: Annual assessments start at $200 per year (per Schedule 1) and can be adjusted annually by the Board. There's also a one-time working capital contribution of $20 at closing. Unpaid assessments accrue interest up to 18% and can become a lien on your property.
Architectural review: You must get written approval from the Architectural Committee before building, altering, or placing any structure, fence, or improvement. Plans are reviewed for conformity and harmony. If the committee doesn't respond within 30 days, approval is deemed given.
Building & design standards: Only one detached single-family home (max 2.5 stories) plus a garage and one storage building are allowed. Minimum heated floor area is 3,000 sq ft for one-story, 4,000 sq ft for multi-story. Driveways must be paved, fences max 6 feet high (with placement rules), and chain-link/wood fences are prohibited. No mobile or modular homes.
Use restrictions: Lots are for single-family residential use only. Up to two home offices are allowed if no customers/suppliers habitually come. No offensive or noxious activities. No signs except one 'For Sale'/'Sold' sign (max 24x24 inches). No 'For Rent' signs.
Parking & vehicles: No habitual street parking. Boats, campers, vehicles with 3+ axles, and trailers cannot be parked on streets or lots. Guests and delivery vehicles can park temporarily.
Pets & animals: Up to three common house-pets per lot. No livestock, poultry, or dangerous animals. Pets cannot be kept for commercial purposes or run at large.
Leasing & rentals: You cannot rent individual rooms, and homes cannot be rented for terms shorter than one year. This means short-term rentals (like Airbnb) are not allowed.
