This is a set of restrictive covenants (CC&Rs) for Horseshoe Bend Estates Addition No. 1, a single‑family home subdivision in McKinney, TX.

(2,600 for two‑story) and built with at least 70% masonry (brick, stone, or approved materials). Construction must be completed within 120 days.
• Architectural review: All new buildings, alterations, fences, and additions require prior written approval from the Architectural Committee. Plans must be submitted showing design, materials, and location. The Committee also controls antennas, pole lights, mailboxes, driveways, and parking areas.

• Property maintenance: Lots must be kept free of weeds, debris, junk, and unlicensed vehicles. Trash must be in covered containers. The Association (or any lot owner) may enter and clean a neglected lot, charging the owner, creating a lien. Burning trash is prohibited.
