be passed on and applied as an assessment to the lot. Every Owner and Builder must provide erosion control per all applicable regulations. III. HOME DESIGN GUIDELINES A. Presentation All homes should be designed to consider architectural detailing on all four sides of the home with a mixture of siding and trim components. B. House Facades Interesting, articulating lines and shapes, porches, porticos, stoops, bays and balconies are strongly encouraged. Avoid building facades consisting of an unarticulated blank wall. Exterior walls may incorporate any of the following: brick, stucco, vinyl, stone, wood, cement board or LP siding. C. Roof Materials and Pitches The minimum roof pitch of the structure's primary roof shall be 6/12, steeper roof pitches are encouraged. The same color shingle on adjacent homes should be avoided (adjacent considers, either side of the subject home on the same side of the street, immediately across the street or directly behind the subject home). If a similar color is desired to be used, the ARC will review the request on a case by case basis. D. Decks Decks and patios should be an extension of the home. Cedar, redwood and wood composite construction is encouraged, painted or stained depending on the home style. The design and color palate of all deck features (posts, railing, skirting, newels, etc) should complement that of the home. E. Siding, Soffits and Fascia Vinyl siding, fascia and trim, as well as maintenance -free aluminum soffits are permitted. The same color siding on adjacent homes is prohibited (adjacent considers either side of the subject home on the same side of the street, immediately across the street or directly behind the subject home). Front elevations are strongly encouraged to include a material other than vinyl (i.e. stone, brick, cement board or LP products). All siding products must follow the final grading of the area around the sides and rear of the home. Exposed exterior insulation, or siding `step downs' which follow the foundation and not the grade will not be acceptable. F. Masonry, Brick and Cultured Stone There is no minimum required amount of stone on a home. When used, brick and stone must wrap around the house corners at least 18 inches. G. Doors and Windows Vinyl and vinyl clad wood windows are allowed. The entry door is expected to be a dominant feature. Sidelights and transoms are encouraged. Windows should be located on all elevations and be properly spaced and proportioned. All front elevation windows shall be trimmed out to provide dimension. Shutters, when used, should be sized to the opening and in keeping with the architectural style of the home.
