The snake would appreciate a shed. Please be careful when you open the doors.

Of course your neighbors will know about it when the first hurricane or tornado hits and effectively relocates to the neighbors house.

I actually have experience with these sheds, if it has an integrated floor and you have weight in it it will not move, now if the winds are so strong to move your CYV to which it is leaning against then all bets are off. At that point your neighbors won't be worried about the deed restrictions.

Again these small sheds are a great option OP, I would disregard the negative posts. If someone backs up to a busy road with a designer it is not practical but that is not the question.

You can as long as you get approval and follow the rules on how it has to be set up.

Or, don't, and complain about having to take it down... in the hot sun...even though it's been there for 15 years...

Any improvement to the property exterior must be approved by the ARC. Free standing sheds are not permitted but if a shed is attached to the villa with like materials and is aesthetically pleasing there is a good chance for approval

When we moved here, I was told the shed had to be ATTACHED to the structure. I also live in a Villa. Moved here 2006. But, it is worth presenting to the ARC committee first. Things may have changed since then. I believe the theory is that if it isn't attached, then a hurricane or tornado can make it a flying object, and believe me... things do fly in a tornado, from first hand account. We had a BBQ grill and a motorcycle that were parked inside our gate. They got thrown up against our back wall. Also found someone's truss in our backyard. So, better to be safe than sorry.

I don't know the rule but it does seem from several posts there is a no shed rule, period. Then others post advise on how to prevent detection of your violation by keeping the height below the fence. My question is I'd like to know if that is their general rule in life... Break the rules including any contracts you have signed and figure out a way to avoid being caught?

I do know it is a more common life style than I'd believed in the past. Even some very wealthy people regularly renege on their contracts. Figuring a way out of the contract is part of the art of the deal.
