How to Create Backyard Privacy

Your yard may be part of your outdoor living space, but that doesn’t mean it can’t be private. Create a backyard design that can conceal your backyard from prying eyes. Handyman Connection® of Matthews discusses how to gain backyard privacy in today’s post.

Entrance

The space between the curb and front door are often not utilized. Gain more outdoor space and make the entry more appealing by creating an entry patio courtyard. Remember to use materials that are in sync with your home’s overall architectural design.

For instance, add a woodshed dormer at the front and a butterfly roof over the new rear addition of a classic home. The design offers a natural look that complements the outdoor living space.

Panels

In addition to installing a wood fence, adding wood lattice panels creates a charming look to your yard. Plus, these maintain your yard’s privacy without compromising aesthetics. Build a private retreat in the landscape where your family and friends can spend some quality time.

Espalier

For homeowners who want elegant outdoor space, frame the perimeter of the yard with pleached hornbeams. You may also add an iroko fence on top of the existing boundary wall. Note that hardwood fences are always better since they are more durable and aesthetically appealing.

Enclosure

One of the best ways to preserve your backyard’s privacy is by creating a separate room with three or four walls, which can be real, implied or both. Customize this outdoor room by adding a cozy seating area with a custom-build gas fire pit.
