ahhh.... now I see. thank you. So, It says in this covenant.... 'No building or any part thereof, included garages and porches, but not including decorative fences or wall or retaining walls, shall be erected closer than ten (10) feet to any side lot line , nor fifty(fifty) feet to any front lot line. My building is forward of the set back line by 12 feet due to a porch (12x12 with roof cover, poured footer walls and poured concrete floor. Does that mean he built it over the line he shouldn't have?
The only reason why Im concerned is that a possible solution to this foundation issue is to pour an additional wall about ten feet off the original basement wall and create a roof covered wrap around porch that would be considered the exterior wall as it would eventually be come enclosed and interior space. Id seen this once in a building with multlevel basement walls. Expensive yes, but at least if im out of pocket for these repairs, it should add nicely to the house. Then again if Im now building my building into the line which shouldn't be crossed then its not an option.
