A History of the Kingspoint Club’s 

For the past forty years, the responsibility of the Kingspoint Club Architectural Review Committee (ARC) has been to offer guidance to property owners on new construction and structural improvements in the Kingspoint Community.

When Kingspoint was developed, the Kingspoint Corporation (the original builders) imposed “restrictions, covenants, limitations, and easements” on all of the lots. The responsibility of the ARC was officially transferred from the Kingspoint Corporation (the builders) to the Kingspoint Club, Inc. on September 30, 1986. The reason for this transition was because the builders were done developing Kingspoint, and the Club was incorporated and had the legal presence to enforce future “growth of the neighborhood” decisions.

Historically, the ARC has acted with the following purposes:

1. To protect property values,

2. To reduce duplication of styles, and

3. To promote acceptable architectural renderings.

In the past, when they purchased their property, home/lot purchasers received a full copy of the recorded covenants for their Kingspoint Section (1-8) from their closing attorney. The covenants were attached to the title of the land and were binding upon all parties owning the lots. With this knowledge, home/lot owners were encouraged to become familiar with their lot’s covenants before starting any projects.

Expiration of the Kingspoint Covenants:

Section 1: January 1, 2025; EXPIRED

Section 2: January 1, 2025; EXPIRED

Section 3: January 1, 2025; EXPIRED

Section 4: January 1, 2025; EXPIRED

Section 5: January 1, 2030

Section 6: January 1, (2030 OR 2035)

Section 7: January 1, 2035

Section 8: January 1, 2035

It has been over forty years since the original Kingspoint Architectural Review Committee was managed by the builders. As we explained above, the Architectural Review Committee of the past forty years has been under the ownership of the Club and has acted as a positive and constant, historically relevant guide and resource for Kingspoint homeowners. 

Today, we no longer have an official Club sanctioned Architectural Review Committee. However, we do have members available to answer questions for homeowners interested in making updates to their homes/lots based on the suggestions of the Kingspoint Covenants. We can offer historically relevant guidance to interested homeowners based on our understanding of the decisions of the former Architectural Review Committee.

Kingspoint’s “Courtesy” Covenants
