Grand Ranch

What Grand Ranch's governing documents say

Grand Ranch is a single-family subdivision in Johnson County, Texas, governed by deed restrictions (not an HOA) that apply to lot owners. These restrictions cover lot use, building types, minimum home sizes, setbacks, pets, livestock, and vehicle storage. Note: The restrictions appear to have expired (Phase Two by 2021, Phase One by 2014) and may no longer be enforceable. Enforcement is by other lot owners or the original seller, not a formal association.

• Lot use & building types: Only single-family dwellings are allowed, with one dwelling per lot. Commercial businesses are prohibited except for specific lots reserved for construction equipment (Phase Two, Block 3 Lot 4) or a sewer system. Mobile homes are permitted only on certain lots (Phase Two) or must be doublewide on most lots (Phase One).
• Minimum home size: For site-built homes: Phase Two requires at least 1,000 sq ft of living area; Phase One requires 900 sq ft. For mobile homes: Phase Two allows a minimum of 900 sq ft (singlewide on some lots, doublewide on others); Phase One allows a minimum of 800 sq ft and must be doublewide.
• Setbacks & placement: Phase Two: buildings must be at least 35 ft from the front lot line and 10 ft from each side line (corner lots have two fronts). Phase One: 60 ft from front and 15 ft from sides, but shorter distances may be granted for topography.
• Pets & livestock: Maximum of 3 dogs over 3 months old per lot. Livestock allowed: up to 1 head per full half acre (sheep, goats, horses, cows, or any animal larger than sheep). No swine allowed. Livestock must be fenced on owner's lot.
• Parking & vehicles: Street parking is prohibited. Vehicles under repair for more than 7 consecutive or 7 out of 60 days must be enclosed or behind an 8 ft fence. No more than 3 vehicles may be stored behind a fence. Trucks over 1 ton, travel trailers, boats must not be placed between home and road. All vehicles must have current license and inspection.
• Exterior maintenance & appearance: Mobile homes must be underpinned within 60 days; underpinning must be in good repair, 90% dent-free. No junk or abandoned cars, no wrecking yards. Items detracting from appearance (tires, machinery, etc.) must be stored out of sight. Lumber/building materials cannot remain longer than 21 days unless enclosed or under construction.
• Expiration & enforcement: These restrictions were initially set to expire: Phase Two in 2021, Phase One in 2014, unless amended by 60% of lot owners. Amendments cannot extend the term. Enforcement is by any other lot owner via legal proceedings; the seller has no duty to enforce.
