One of the reasons this place is so absolutely sought after is that the restrictions keep things looking nice. I know many sought a place with these kinds of deed restrictions because they had previously lived in a similar place and it worked.

I totally agree with the above as it relates to external deed restrictions (outside of the home). Unfortunately, it’s a hypocritical double standard to only enforce external deed restrictions and ignore internal restrictions such as single family only usage, running a business out of a home, and no residents under 21. What’s the point of having a beautifully manicured neighborhood in a retirement community, when the neighborhood is being disrupted by activities that are not in harmony with intended usage? Selective enforcement of restrictions discredits the reason for having the them in the first place!
