If you are looking forward to moving into your new dream home or you are just seeking some new ways to add privacy to your home’s yard, installing a brand new fence is a wonderful option. Here are some of the ways that you can use fencing to add major curb appeal to your home, protect your property and family, and add some extra privacy to your home.
Separate Your Pool or Patio
If you just installed a patio, added a pool to your yard, or got new playground equipment for your kids, a fence might be a necessity for privacy. Privacy fences can be made using a huge variety of fencing materials, produced in many different colors, and designed specifically to match your home and design aesthetic. To boost the beauty of your privacy fence, consider planting new shrubs or flowers around the perimeter.
Get Creative with Stone and Fencing
If you are looking for a rustic and beautiful look that incorporates stone, add privacy to your yard by first building a stone wall 2-3 feet height and then installing a 3- or 4-foot picket fence over top. This gives you the solid privacy of stone but also allows your home to still look inviting and charming to guests with a classic picket fence. This style of fencing, in particular, allows you to get the privacy you want without interrupting sight lines or creating a claustrophobic and closed off feeling in your home.
Incorporate Ironwork
If you are interested in a fence that uses multiple mediums to increase your sense of privacy and boost your home’s curb appeal, consider incorporating ornamental ironwork into your design. If you use stone or masonry as your building materials for your fence, you can leave gaps in it that are filled with beautiful custom ornamental ironwork. This allows for air to circulate in and out of the space and set your yard apart without completely closing it off. The ironwork can be customized to suit your privacy needs.
