Local Conditions

What Changes the Work in Country Place

The Country Place, Inc. recorded updated deed restrictions in December 2024. They require Architectural Committee approval before a building or other structure goes up or is changed. Townhouses line the narrow golf fairways, and the grounds hold lakes, ponds and a creek. HOA staff care for those common areas, not private yards. Clay soil in this region can swell when wet and shrink when dry, which can affect fence posts and patios. Soil and past grading vary, so check conditions on your lot.

Approval Comes First

The HOA says committee replies usually come in 10 days or less. The committee has up to 30 days.

  • Fence Lines and Height

    Fences need written committee approval, must stay behind the front building line, and can be 8 feet tall at most. Plan the fence line with those limits in mind.

  • Sheds Kept Out of Sight

    Sheds must sit in the back yard, hidden by walls, fences or plants. Pick a spot that meets that rule before you ask for a quote.

  • Clay Under Posts and Decks

    Clay can swell when wet and shrink when dry. Soil and past grading vary, so check conditions on your lot before posts or footings go in.

  • Trees on Your Own Lot

    HOA dues do not pay for upkeep of private property. Trimming, removal and stump grinding in your yard are yours to arrange.

  • Outside Materials

    The rules set an exterior material standard for buildings, including sheds. Ask the committee how it applies before you plan a new structure.

  • A Community Founded in 1971

    The HOA says Country Place was founded in 1971. A remodel here can mean new tile, shower remodeling, new counters or fresh trim.

Architectural Committee

How Country Place Approves Outside Work

The deed restrictions say no building may be built, placed or changed on a lot until two full sets of plans, specs and a plot plan go to the Architectural Committee. The committee has 30 days to review them. A denial must be in writing and give the reason.

So approval comes before posts, footings or lumber. Share the approved plans when you request a quote.

Country Place also has three sub-associations: Country Lake, Townhouse I and Walden. Each elects its own board. If your home is in one, ask that board whether it has rules of its own.

  • Fences: written approval first, nothing in front of the front building line, and 8 feet tall at most.
  • Sheds and other roofed structures: back yard only. Sheds must also be hidden from outside the lot by walls, fences or plants.
  • Outside materials: the rules set an exterior material standard for buildings, including sheds. Ask the committee how it applies to your plans.
  • Height: two stories at most unless the committee agrees in writing.
  • Rear setback: a main home must stay 20 feet from the back lot line.
  • City permits: the restrictions let Carrollton's building inspector refuse a permit for work that breaks them.

FAQ

Still Have Questions?

Send a text or give us a call. We are happy to talk through your project.

Call (469) 340-2030
Do I need approval to build a deck in Country Place?

Yes. The HOA's FAQ says a new fence, deck or other structure needs approval before the project starts. The Architectural Approval Application is on the HOA website and at the clubhouse office. Replies usually come in 10 days or less, and the volunteer committee has up to 30 days.

Does rebuilding an old fence need approval too?

Yes. The deed restrictions say no fence may be built or rebuilt without the committee's written approval, so a replacement counts. Ask Carrollton about the city permit as well as HOA approval. The city requires a permit for new fence construction, and small repairs are exempt only within set limits, including a six-month total for panel replacements. We also quote fence staining.

Where can a storage shed go on a Country Place lot?

Sheds count as accessory buildings, so they must sit in the back yard. The deed restrictions also say sheds must be enclosed by walls, fences or landscaping so they cannot be seen from outside the lot. Choose a back yard spot that meets that rule, then ask us for a shed quote. A pergola is a structure too, so plan on approval for it as well.

Does the HOA take care of trees and yards?

HOA staff look after the golf course, lakes, park and greenbelts. The HOA's FAQ says dues do not cover any upkeep of private property, so trees, beds and lawns on your lot are yours. The deed restrictions also ask owners to keep lots clear of weeds and debris. We trim and remove trees, grind stumps, lay sod and mulch, and clean up yards.

Can you remodel a Country Place townhouse or duplex?

Yes. Country Place has townhouses, duplexes and single-family homes, and we quote work in all three: kitchen and bath remodels, tile, trim, built-ins, closets and paint. If your home is in Country Lake, Townhouse I or Walden, check with that board too. Ask the clubhouse office whether your plans need a form.

What rules apply to a home addition in Country Place?

Two full sets of plans go to the Architectural Committee before work starts. A main home must stay 20 feet from the rear lot line, and nothing may go over two stories without written approval. Get the committee's approval first, and share the approved plans when you ask for a quote.
