What The Oak Hill Homeowners' Association, Inc.'s governing documents say

This is a collection of covenants, conditions, and restrictions (CC&Rs) for Oak Hill Estates, a single-family residential subdivision in Fort Worth, Texas. The documents include the original declaration, amendments, and separate restrictions for different sections of the subdivision. They bind all property owners and are relevant to anyone buying, building, or renovating a home in this community.

• Property use & building types: Lots are designated for single-family residential use only, with some blocks allowing duplexes. Only one detached single-family residence, a private garage, and typical outbuildings are permitted per lot.
• Architectural review & design standards: Building plans must be approved by a New Construction Committee (or the original dedicators) for harmony of design and location. The committee's decision on aesthetics is final. Specific standards include minimum square footage (e.g., 1,400 sq ft for main dwellings in one section, 1,500 sq ft for single-story homes in another), masonry exterior requirements (60-65% of wall area), and height limits (max 2.5 stories for residences, 1.5 for garages).
• Setbacks & lot requirements: Buildings must comply with front, side, and rear setback requirements, typically at least 20 feet from the front line, 5 feet from side lines, and 7.5 feet from rear lines. Minimum lot width is 40 feet and minimum area is 6,000 square feet. Garages cannot face the street unless set back 30 feet from the front building line.
• Landscaping & drainage: Front yards must be solidly sodded with grass within 30 days of home completion (or as approved). All drainage must be maintained to prevent erosion and interference with established drainage functions. Railroad/crosstie walls are prohibited in front yards.
• Fences & walls: Boundary fences must be stockade, masonry, hedge, or painted wood; chain-link fences are only allowed inside other fencing. In some areas, only wooden fences are permitted on rear lots. No fence, wall, or hedge may obstruct sight lines on corner lots.
• Vehicles & parking: No boats, campers, motor homes, or similar vehicles may be regularly parked on streets or on lots where visible from the street. Trucks over 3/4 ton cannot park on streets, driveways, or lots overnight. Vehicles transporting flammable or explosive cargo are prohibited.
• Pets & animals: No livestock, animals, or poultry may be raised, bred, or kept on lots, except dogs, cats, or other household pets, provided they are not kept for commercial purposes.
• Signs & nuisances: No signs are allowed except one professional sign of no more than 1 square foot, one sale/rent sign of no more than 5 square feet, or builder signs during construction. No noxious or offensive activities are permitted, and no temporary structures may be used as residences.
