ROLLING HII ~LS Heading along Jarvis Ave. you will notice a white country fence leading into the Rolling Hills Subdivision. The first thing you will see on your right is the original 1920% homestead barn. This barn is the old dairy style barn with a upper hayloft and a lower level for dairy cattle. Landscaping around the barn will be done as a buffer fi-om the original homestead to give it the feeling that it belongs to the Rolling Hills homeowners and that they have arrived home. The barn will be upgraded with interior and exterior repair. The first home will be set back from the road over 400 feet to provide that country feeling. There is also a row of trees along lots 1 block 1 and lot 7 block 3 that will provide a more buffered area reducing visibility of homes from the street. As you drive into the subdivision in the evening you will notice that all of the homes have lanterns on posts set at the end of their driveways. All of the lanterns will have an electronic eye to turn on approximately the same time each evening. This is also another signature of Rolling Hills to know that you are home. As you tour through Rolling Hills, the homes will be located on the lot so as to disturb as little as possible of the trees and natural setting. Setbacks will vary from each home to accommodate the natural setting. The homes will have a front porch or wrap around front porch to provide the sense of community and to be able to visit with their neighbors. Fronts of the homes will have a natural look (no vinyl siding will be allowed) and the wider lots will have end load garages. Any additional garages located on the site will have a similar quality front to match the home so as to not deter from the other homes in Rolling Hills. Because the subdivision is clustered there is over 68 acres of open space. A trail system will be placed in the subdivision to the south as well as to the north. There are some natural high points located within Rolling Hills which will have benches to sit and enjoy the beautiful countryside scenery. Within the 68 acres of open space there is one area of 33 acres of rolling hills that will have a trail leading to the highest hill. There you will find a gazebo which can be used for quiet time or for a group gathering.
