Building Requirements

Windmill Pointe has been developed for the more discerning and demanding homeowner. Construction standards have been adopted not only to ensure the safety of our residents but also to enhance the beauty of the community. An Architectural Control Committee carefully reviews all proposed construction plans to enforce our standards and to further protect the investment of each homeowner.

All will agree that Oriental is a unique community. Windmill Pointe has been designed to make the most of the village atmosphere of the community while providing a sense of investment security and comfort to property owners. Each lot is a minimum of twelve feet in elevation, which is most unusual for the area. Coupled with a significant shoreline buttress, your home site is protected from the elements. Protective Covenants are essential as well to achieve the vision for the development. At Windmill Pointe, restrictions will help to insure the integrity of the neighborhood, to protect property values and to provide harmony. Our Covenants cover all aspects of lot ownership, including required construction standards and land use provisions, designed to enhance the pride and security to those fortunate few who will call Windmill Pointe home.
