What Rutherford Springs Ph I & Ph 2's governing documents say

Rutherford Springs is a 21-lot single-family home subdivision in Keene, Texas, with lots ranging from 2 to 4 acres. These deed restrictions run with the land and apply to all owners, buyers, and residents. There is no homeowners association — restrictions are enforced by the developer or affected property owners.

• Use & leasing: Lots are for single-family residential use only. Leases must be for the entire lot (not partial). In-home businesses are allowed if they don't involve employee parking, deliveries, or signs.
• Minimum square footage: One-story homes must have at least 850 sq ft (excluding porches, patios, and a double garage). Two-story homes require at least 1,200 sq ft on the ground floor and 650 sq ft on the second.
• Outbuildings & vehicles: All outbuildings must be behind the front building line. No camping trailers, boats, or trucks over 4 tons may be stored or used as residences. Vehicles must be in daily use or stored out of sight.
• Setbacks & exterior standards: Setbacks are a minimum of 100 feet from county roads. Exteriors must be Craftsman or Modern Farm style with Hardie Board, brick, stucco, or stone. Roofs must be 35-year composition shingles in Weathered Wood color.
• Construction approval: All plans must be submitted 45 days before construction to Randall W. Garrett or assigns, including site plans and exterior materials. Any exterior change also requires prior approval.
• Pets & livestock: No cows, hogs, sheep, goats, poultry, or other farm animals. Up to 4 dogs, 4 cats, or birds as household pets are allowed. Horses are allowed (max 2 per lot) but must be kept on the rear 50% of the lot with fences 54-60 inches high.
• Signs & advertisements: No exterior signs except a single 'for sale' sign, political signs 90 days before an election (removed 15 days after), and religious displays per Texas law. Contractor signs are only allowed during construction.
• Subdivision & amendments: Lots cannot be further subdivided. The developer may amend these restrictions until 100% of lots are sold; afterward, amendments require approval from 80% of lot owners. Restrictions are perpetual.
