So, our gated community, strangely enough, has an HOA which is very picky about different regulations regarding the enclosed properties.
As I have been considering and dreaming about building a greenhouse with cob and or raised beds, I have looked into the codes regarding this. Our HOA states that we must have all accessory buildings ten feet away from the front of the lot, eight feet away from the back, and five feet away from either of the sides. That doesn't provide us with very much room to build a greenhouse, as we technically can't put the greenhouse along either of the back corners of the property. However, we might need to put the greenhouse in one of the back corners because that is probably the only viable space... unless we create some sort of smaller greenhouse set up,.. like perhaps a short but wide greenhouse, however, that would only practically grow seedlings or greens, which would bring it out of our bedroom walk in closet :) but it would be limited to taller, tropical fruit plants we could also be growing.
We also technically need to get the building approved before we would put it up, but we're probably not going to seek approval. Act first, seek forgiveness later, has been our rule to live by.
