Shore Acres

What Shore Acres's governing documents say

This is a collection of two partial, ancillary documents for the Shore Acres subdivision in Wilmington, NC (New Hanover County). The first is a single-lot setback restriction and easement granted to the Town of Wrightsville Beach, binding only Lot 70. The second is a declaration withdrawing a small tract from a prior public dedication. Neither document is a full set of community rules or covenants for the entire subdivision.

• Setback restriction (Lot 70 only): No structure on Lot 70 may be built closer than 8.7 feet from the northern lot line (the boundary with Lot 71). This restriction runs with the land and is enforceable by the Town of Wrightsville Beach.
• Easement to the Town: The owners of Lot 70 granted the Town of Wrightsville Beach a perpetual easement over a described strip of land (8.7 feet wide along the northern boundary) to enforce the setback and remove any violating structures.
• Withdrawal of public dedication: A 1968 declaration by a successor in title withdrew a small tract (formerly shown as a street or open way on a 1929 plat) from any claimed public or private use, stating the area was never used by the public.
• What this document doesn't cover: These documents do not establish a homeowners association, common areas, architectural review, pet rules, leasing restrictions, or any other typical community-wide covenants. They apply only to specific lots or tracts, not the entire Shore Acres subdivision.
