Waterway Cove

What Waterway Cove's governing documents say

Waterway Cove is a single-family home subdivision in Bolivia, NC, governed by a homeowners association (HOA). This declaration of covenants, restrictions, easements, charges, and liens binds all lot owners and their tenants, and is intended to ensure a uniform development scheme and preserve property values.

• Residential use & restrictions: Lots are for single-family detached dwellings only. No timesharing, interval ownership, or multi-family conversions. Home offices are allowed if they don't generate regular client visits or significant traffic.
• Architectural review: All improvements (including site work, construction, landscaping, and exterior changes) require prior written approval from the Architectural Review Committee (ARC). A $500 review fee applies unless waived. The ARC has 45 days to respond; failure to respond results in deemed approval.
• Leasing & rentals: Leases must be for at least 30 days (unless the Board approves a shorter term). Only the entire dwelling may be leased, not a portion. All leases must be in writing, filed with the association, and incorporate the governing documents.
• Pets: No more than three domestic household pets (dogs, cats, or similar) per lot. Fish and aquatic animals in tanks are not counted. Dogs must be leashed on common areas. Pets that endanger health, make objectionable noise, or constitute a nuisance must be removed upon association request.
• Parking & vehicles: No storage or parking of recreational vehicles, boats, trailers, commercial vehicles, or campers on lots or common areas except in an enclosed garage. Temporary parking of non-commercial vehicles on streets in front of the owner's lot is allowed for up to 24 hours. Vehicle repairs are only allowed in enclosed garages or for emergencies.
• Signs: Political signs may be displayed on a lot no earlier than 45 days before an election and no later than 5 days after. 'For Sale' or 'For Rent' signs are permitted if they comply with ARC guidelines. No other signs are allowed without approval.
• Minimum dwelling size & construction timeline: Each dwelling must have at least 1,500 square feet of enclosed heated living area (excluding porches, decks, and garages). Construction must commence within 2 years of lot purchase and be completed within 1 year (unless delayed by force majeure).
