Freeman Park Deed Restrictions
Freeman Park is governed by recorded Development Area Declarations of Covenants, Conditions and Restrictions for each phase (recorded 2015 to 2017), which sit under the Forest Grove Master Covenant. The community is also subject to its City of Round Rock planned unit development (PUD) requirements. The summary below covers the rules that most often come up for buyers.
Rules at a glance
- Design review: Exterior changes and new improvements need written approval from the architectural reviewer before work starts. Interior changes that cannot be seen from outside do not. A house plan may repeat only every third lot and never across the street or diagonally, and no three adjacent lots can have the same elevation. Brick or masonry can repeat every other lot, but not across the street or diagonally.
- Single-family use: Homes are single-family detached residences. Business use is not allowed, except quiet, inoffensive home-based activities such as tutoring or art and music lessons that do not add noticeable parking or disturb neighbors.
- Pets: Dogs, cats and other household animals, no more than four pets per lot. Livestock, poultry, reptiles and exotic animals are not allowed, and pets cannot be kept for commercial purposes. Pets are kept inside the home or in a secure fenced rear yard, and must be registered and tagged.
- Vehicles and parking: Boats, RVs, travel trailers and campers cannot be parked in the driveway, the front yard or on the street, and in a side or rear yard they must be concealed from public view. Trucks over 1.5 tons and commercial vehicles with painted advertising cannot park overnight. Vehicles visible from the street must be passenger cars, passenger vans, motorcycles or pickups that run and have current plates and inspection stickers.
- Garages and carports: Each home has an enclosed garage that matches the home, with a wood-look finish on the garage door. Carports are not allowed.
- Home exteriors: Exterior walls are 100% masonry on all four sides, meaning stone, brick or three-step hard coat stucco, except for non-load-bearing items such as doors, windows, trim and accents. Cement-based siding does not count as masonry, and stucco is limited to 30% of the facade. A fully stucco design is allowed only with a tile roof and a stone wainscot on the front, with approval. Wood is for accents only.
- Roofs: Pitch of at least 6/12 with 30-year architectural dimensional shingles in a brown or gray muted earth tone. Roof vents are painted to match the roof and kept out of view from the street. Energy efficient shingles that are wind and hail resistant or solar capable can be used if they match the look of the community.
- Doors and windows: Front doors are a six-panel mahogany wood design. Windows are anodized aluminum, vinyl or wood, and front windows are baked-on painted aluminum. Burglar bars on the exterior and foil, reflective film or newspaper on windows are not allowed.
- Patios and driveways: Homes are built with a covered rear patio of at least 100 square feet. Patio covers are not allowed except as part of the original construction. Driveways are concrete or a similar approved surface.
- Fences: Six-foot cedar privacy fences with metal posts and treated rails. Interior fences are "good neighbor" style, and corner lot fences facing the street are stained and capped. Lots that back to the Brushy Creek trail or Freeman Memorial Public Park use a six-foot black metal tubular fence with masonry columns. No fence can sit closer to the street than the front of the home.
- Landscaping: Each lot has two 3-inch shade trees plus shrubs, and corner lots add two more shade trees on the street side. Lots backing to the trail or park add a rear yard shade tree. Front, side and rear yards use drought tolerant turf grasses, foundations visible from the street are screened with evergreen shrubs, and rock or crushed rock is not allowed as a ground cover. Removing a tree 6 inches or larger needs approval, and no trees can be removed from the trail or park.
- Xeriscaping: Allowed with an approved landscape plan, as long as at least half of the front yard stays in turf.
- Outbuildings: Temporary structures are not allowed. Children's playhouses, dog houses, greenhouses, gazebos and lawn equipment storage buildings are allowed if placed where they cannot be seen from the street, and pre-built buildings cannot be moved onto a lot unless they are one of those types.
- Solar panels: Allowed with approval, on the roof, a patio or within a fenced yard, and not beyond the roofline or taller than the fence.
- Rain barrels: Allowed with approval, in a color that matches the home and not between the front of the home and the street.
- Air conditioning: Ground units cannot be in front of the home, and air conditioners and evaporative coolers cannot be mounted on a front wall or in a window.
- Antennas and flags: Satellite dishes of one meter or less go on the back or side of the home below the roofline. The US, Texas and military flags and one college flag are allowed, on a flagpole up to five feet long attached to the home (two maximum). A freestanding flagpole needs approval.
- Signs: One small security sign, one temporary for-sale or for-lease sign (removed within two business days after the sale or lease), a small no-soliciting sign at the front door, and political signs from 90 days before to 10 days after an election. Other signs need approval.
- Trash, clotheslines and burning: Trash containers are stored out of public view except on collection days. Clotheslines and drying racks cannot be visible from adjacent lots, and burning is limited to fireplaces and outdoor cooking equipment.
- Basketball goals: Basketball goals and similar athletic devices are not allowed in the street.
- Seasonal lighting: Holiday lights can go up on Thanksgiving Day and come down by January 15.
- Setbacks: Per the recorded plat and the City of Round Rock.
Summary only, not legal advice. Restrictions can be amended, and some sections and lots have their own recorded restrictions. Confirm the rules for your specific home with the title company before you make an offer.
