Hill Side Subdivision

What Hill Side Subdivision's governing documents say

Hill Side Subdivision is a single-family residential subdivision in Wilmington, NC. These covenants run with the land and bind all current and future lot owners. The rules are enforced by lot owners, not by a homeowners association.

• Permitted uses & structures: Lots are for single-family residential use only. Only one detached single-family dwelling (max 2.5 stories), a private garage (max 3 cars), and incidental outbuildings (including servant's quarters) are allowed.
• Minimum house size: Each residence must have at least 800 square feet of heated floor space.

• Architectural review: Plans for all dwellings and structures must be submitted to the developer (or its agent) for written approval within 10 days; failure to approve within 10 days means automatic approval.
