Often, when you think of putting a fence up in your yard, you likely think of what will look best and serve you well in your backyard, but there are times when you will want a fence in your front yard—what are the best choices for a front yard fence?
Thankfully, there are several options. You won’t be stuck with one you don’t like because the variety available will help you find one that meets your needs. Here are a few popular choices:
1. Picket Fence. This is certainly the most classic and iconic front-yard option. There are choices, however; that can make your picket fence stand apart from others. Choose the height, shape, and even color of your picket fence to make it unique for your home.
2. Ornamental Fence. These are often made of wrought iron and give a great feeling of elegance to any yard. They are a great choice for a front yard because you can leave them transparent, providing a boundary while still being open and accessible.
3. Privacy or Semi-Privacy Fence. While it might seem unusual to choose a privacy fence for the front yard, many homeowners who are limited in available yard space find that an attractive privacy fence can give them more flexibility in how they use their outdoor space. Because of the different shapes and types of privacy fences, you can find one that works for you!
Your home should be your space from the first step into the yard, so if you’re looking for a front yard fence, don’t settle for anything that doesn’t fit you, your yard, and your house!
If you are looking for a more decorative style instead of the standard privacy fence you may be interested in a French Gothic Picket Fence. The stylish pickets will set your fence apart from your neighbors. The standard 2 ½” spacing between the pickets can be customized to your preference. A picket fence will set a boundary for children and fur babies while maintaining an open feel for your property.
