Hillside Winding Creek

What Hillside Winding Creek's governing documents say

This is a set of supplemental declarations for Hillside at Winding Creek, a single-family home subdivision in McKinney, TX. The rules apply to homeowners and builders, specifying strict architectural and construction standards for all lots. The documents amend and supplement a master declaration, so not all community rules are included here.

• Minimum floor area: The total air-conditioned living area of the main residential structure must be at least 2,400 square feet. For a two-story home, the first floor must be at least 1,200 square feet.
• Building materials: At least 80% of exterior walls must be masonry (brick, stone, etc.). Hardi-plank or equivalent may be used for upper portions if approved by the committee. All roofing must be in earth tones or approved colors, with minimum 30-year dimensional shingles; wood shingles must be fireproofed.
• Roofing & pitch: Minimum roof pitch is 8/12, except mixed 6/12 and 8/12 is allowed if those portions face front and rear. Lower pitches may be approved by the committee. All roof vents and plumbing stacks must be painted to match roof color.
• Fencing: Wood fencing is required between lots and along rear lots not adjacent to a creek, maximum 6 feet high, with specific construction details. Architectural metal fencing (black) is required along cul-de-sacs, public rights-of-way, and along creek lots. Chain-link fences only for dog runs, not visible from the street. No wood fencing on yards adjacent to Winding Brook Drive.
• Height & design: No home may exceed two stories or 35 feet in height. No two houses on the same street may have identical or substantially similar exterior elevations within three lots of each other. Garages facing the street must be recessed at least 18 inches.
• Driveways & retaining walls: Driveways must be set back at least 1.5 feet from property lines. Retaining walls must be of moss rock stone consistent throughout the subdivision.
• Exterior structures & equipment: All exterior structures (sheds, pool houses) and recreational equipment require committee approval. Pool equipment must be screened from view. Address plates and mailboxes must follow specific design and placement standards.
• What this document doesn't cover: As a supplemental declaration, it does not include the full master declaration's rules on assessments, HOA governance, leasing restrictions, pet policies, or use restrictions. Those can be found in the master declaration for Winding Creek.
