Alda and Mattingly are residents of phase I of the Chimney Hills subdivision. The lots owned by Alda and Mattingly are subject to the following restrictive covenant: ‘‘Lots shall be for single-family residence purposes only.’’ Alda intends to convert her carport into a beauty shop, and Mattingly brings suit against Alda to enjoin her from doing so. Alda argues that the covenant restricts only the type of building that can be constructed, not the incidental use to which residential structures are put. Will Alda be able to operate a beauty shop on the property?
Why or why not?
