All Brambleton’s Covenants began with a visionand purpose for the development of ourcommunity; establish and maintain graciousarchitectural qualities of neighborhood living withwell designed homes and thoughtfully placedlandscaping. This style reflects attention topreserving the open park-like settings andintegration of community amenities. The look ofBrambleton gives our community its uniqueappeal, and superb property value. In order topreserve this quality-of-life, the BrambletonGroup established protective covenants thathave guided Brambleton’s development.Because these covenants protect our commongoals of maintaining Brambleton at its best, it iscritical that all Brambleton homeowners andresidents are aware of the rights andresponsibilities imparted to us by our covenants.

The primary source for Brambleton’s covenantsis the Declaration for Brambleton. In addition,Supplementary Declarations for each sectionalong with the Design Guidelines for Brambletonand Policy Resolutions enacted by Brambleton’sBoard of Directors make up the governingdocuments of the Association. Thesedocuments are provided to each prospectivepurchaser in Brambleton, and are also availableon Brambleton’s Community Intranet atwww.brambletonhoa.com. Whether you optedfor new construction or a resale property,Brambleton’s covenants ”run with the land”meaning they are attached to, and benefit theland in perpetuity. This means that even if youare not the original purchaser, the covenantsbind your property, and will be binding on allsubsequent owners.

Preservation of the Brambleton covenants isfacilitated by property owners working togetherand through their community association. It isimportant that each owner is aware of andabides by all of the community covenants. Inaddition, owners are obligated to share thisinformation with their tenants, householdmembers and guests.

Association staff serves to support owners withinformation about our community covenants. Atthe Direction of the Board of Directors, staffconducts proactive community wide inspectionsthroughout the year and investigates reports ofconcern. Enforcement actions are outlined inthe governing documents. Association staff canassist you with questions or concerns regardingour community covenants.

The Brambleton Covenants Committee isempowered to consider violations of theAssociation Documents and to take enforcementactions. The committee also guideshomeowners through the design review processto preserve high standards, protect propertyvalues and enhance the aesthetic of theneighborhood.
