Understanding the requirements for home sizes and architectural features in each neighborhood of Southern Hills Plantation can be confusing. All of the lots in each neighborhood are of a “typical homesite width”. This does not mean every lot is exactly this width but it was the goal of the developer to get each lot as close to this width as possible. Curves in the roads, drainage features and other factors may lead to variation in lot widths. Each neighborhood also has required front, rear and side setbacks.
