Subdivision bylaws-- need your thoughts on this language

Hello!  

What are my fellow BP member thoughts on this language? Does it specifically prohibit short term rentals? I'm not seeing that it does and I am living in an ideal situation to move out and STR. This is not an HOA, it is just a very old set of bylaws on a subdivision.

I don't put a lot of stock in attorneys, and I have worked in lawful counsel capacities for myself as well as for attorneys, so please don't recommend one 😄 

The way I'm reading it-- as long as it's the entire property being rented, which it is, and it's not for more than one family, which it isn't, then it's pretty vague if it wanted to prohibit STRs.  Any thoughts?  Thanks in advance!

"No part...shall be used for the purpose of renting rooms as a boarding house or other transient accommodation."  

Can't get much more clear than that.
