Master Restrictions and CC&Rs
Living in a Master-Planned Community
When you purchased your home in Mountain House, you received a document called the Master Restrictions or CC&Rs—Covenants, Conditions, & Restrictions. These guidelines help keep our community beautiful, safe, and cohesive.
The purpose of the Master Restrictions is to establish clear standards for how homes and properties are maintained, improved, and used throughout our neighborhoods. They protect property values and enhance our community’s charm.
