I have owned two CYV's. The first was a 2/2, and only 1,176 sq ft. It did not have concrete within 1-2' of the neighbors home. It had a sidewalk, and was more like 5-6' from their home. My 2nd home is a 3/2, and is 1,700 sq ft. It had all grass between the neighbors home and mine. I installed a sidewalk, but again it's 5-6' from their home.

The property line runs down the middle of the 2 homes - usually 5' off from your neighbors home as that is the setback required. I'm not sure whether you can install concrete there or not - as stated, you can't put anything in that would change the drainage for the home.

Check with your county and with ARC for correct guidelines. Whoever you get to do this, make sure they run it through ARC... you don't want to put it down, then have to tear it up again.
