Legal Question in Real Estate Law in Virginia
I need to know whether I can have a detached garage
THe convenant states the following:
All lots or portions thereof shown on said plat shall be used for
residential purposes only. No structure shall erected, altered,
placed or permitted to remain on any portion of any tract, shown on
said map, other that a single family dwelling and appurtenances
thereto, including a detached garage. No more than one residence to
be occupied by one family and its domiciled servants and employees
will be built on each parcel. Residence is hereby defined as one to
no more than three detached structures.
1 Answer from Attorneys
Yes, I would say so, based upon the wording of this covenant, if the
detached garage which you have in mind plus the single family
dwelling and any additional structure or appurtenance add up to no more than the one residence as defined in the referenced covenant.
