I'm a little confused. But, if you are talking about your back yard where your lanai is located, then you have control of the entire yard inside the fence. You also have sprinkler heads located in that area that are connected to your water system, and you are required to maintain them. You also have control of the area across from your front door that abuts to your neighbor's house, and outside of your neighbor's gate. You have one sprinkler head located in that area that is connected to your water system. This is all explained in great detail in your covenant document. The situation is somewhat unique because you actually have access and control of property that you do not own, because the property line is located midway between the houses. It is not "lot line" construction like some people are familiar with, where the property line runs directly adjacent to the house.
