Villages of Tryon

What Villages of Tryon's governing documents say

The Villages of Tryon is a master-planned community in Raleigh, NC, with single-family homes, townhouses, condos, and patio/zero-lot-line homes, all governed by this Master Declaration. Residents are members of the Villages of Tryon Community Homeowners Association, which maintains common areas and enforces rules.

• What you own & maintain: You own your lot and dwelling unit; the HOA maintains common properties, private streets, landscaping, and recreational facilities. Some limited common areas (like joint driveways) are maintained by the owners or a neighborhood association.
• Architectural review: Exterior changes, construction, fences, landscaping, and even repainting require prior written approval from the Architectural Control Committee. Plans must be submitted at least 45 days in advance; approval is granted or denied within 30 days. The Committee has broad discretion for aesthetic reasons.
• Restrictions on use: Lots may only be used for residential purposes. No mobile homes, temporary structures as residences, time-sharing arrangements, or commercial activities (except model homes by the developer). No above-ground pools (except small wading pools). Fences need Committee approval and must not be in front of the dwelling.
• Parking & vehicles: Boats, trailers, RVs, campers, and trucks rated one ton or larger cannot remain on lots or common areas overnight unless inside a garage. Motorized vehicles must be muffled and only driven on streets, driveways, and parking lots.
• Pets & animals: No more than three dogs, cats, or other household pets per dwelling unit; no breeding or commercial use. Pets must be leashed when off the owner's property.
• Landscaping & trees: A landscape plan must be approved during construction. Trees 3 inches in diameter or more (at 2 feet above ground) cannot be removed without Committee approval, unless within 10 feet of the dwelling or in a driveway/walkway path.
• Assessments & fees: Annual assessments are levied by the HOA and can be increased up to a maximum (not specified in this excerpt). Special assessments for capital improvements and individual assessments for violations or architectural review fees are also possible.
• What this document doesn't cover: This excerpt does not specify exact assessment amounts, pet fees, age restrictions, leasing minimum terms (those are in separate neighborhood declarations or later documents), or specific recreational facility details. It also does not include rules for rentals or subletting.
