And, I don't think there is a rule that says you cannot place landscaping within 3 feet of your neighbor's property line for any house. You need to read the deed restriction document very carefully. I had to read mine about 7 times before I could fully comprehend what it allows and requires.

In my district in CYV,s nothing can come within foot of my house wall. That 1 foot rock landscaping beside my house is for drainage not for plants cause too close to my house wall which requires 1 foot clearance same in that area off front porch. I can’t have nothing within 1 foot of my neighbor’s house even though it technically his property, but I maintain it. There also 1 foot clearance on my driveway so I can get in and out of my vehicle. Some let there bushes/shrubs grow beyond driveways in front of there houses which is violation.
Again this depends on district and how property lines and houses are built (2 bedroom vs 3 bedroom) I have no clue or interest how Patio villa’s are set up which looks like just as screwed up as CYV’s, bottom line read restrictions for district if there any questions call ☎️.
IMO it takes lawyers mentality to understand deed restrictions due to many different rules based on village, lot number, and district.
