BEFORE YOU CHOOSE A PROPERTY

Your neighborhood questions, answered.

Document summaries describe the sources reviewed. Confirm current amendments, fees and the rules for your exact lot.

The original August 29, 2002 declaration, instrument 27148, Deeds Book 245, pages 441-462, identifies Phase One Lots 1-14, survey reference 020001. It allows later additions, which are not verified for every matching listing. Article VI also incorporates separately recorded restrictions as amended. The known 2004 assessment amendment does not establish current rental permission or complete the amendment chain.

Is there an HOA, and what does it cost?
Confirm current terms

The reviewed Phase One declaration provides for annual and special association assessments. A 2004 amendment changes the declarant exemption; current owner dues and any special charges still need confirmation.

Sources, document scope & review dates
  • The Peninsula Phase One recorded declaration

    Instrument 27148; Deeds Book 245, pages 441-462; recorded August 29, 2002 · Reviewed Oct 31, 2026.

    All 22 watermarked pages were read from the official county preview. The original identifies Phase One Lots 1-14 and permits later additions; current annexations, separately recorded restrictions and later amendments remain unverified.

  • The Peninsula 2004 assessment amendment

    Instrument 45965; Deeds Book 255, page 226; recorded November 2, 2004 · Reviewed Oct 30, 2026.

    The prior official-preview review identified a declarant assessment exemption added to Article II, section 2(c). This amendment does not establish rental permission, current owner dues or a complete current amendment chain.

Document summaries preserve the source's stated scope. Current amendments and the requirements for your exact lot still need confirmation.

Location, size & lake details

Postal cities and counties describe the listing’s reported location. They do not establish lake frontage or neighborhood boundaries. Restriction filters select vacant land using the MLS Restricted? answer, not a permission review. Reviewed-use filters require approved property-specific records; unknowns are excluded. Combined options require no identified private restrictions, the selected home class allowed and no identified minimum size within the reviewed scope. Public approvals remain separate.
