Benefits of a home with a fenced yard
Owning a home with a fenced yard comes with many benefits. Here are a few that we hear most often:
1. Privacy
Whether or not you opt for a tall privacy fence, a fence on your property provides a higher level of privacy than none at all. A fence helps ensure that neighbors and strangers can’t enter your space unannounced, and it also blocks your home from unwanted noise and wandering eyes.
2. Safety
A fence doesn’t just protect your property—it secures pets, children, and other household members too. Anyone playing and working outside will be safer with a fence installed, and your landscaping will also be guarded against wildlife passing through.
3. Curb appeal
A well-designed, well-built fence will improve your home’s appearance, raising its value. How much? An independent university study found that great curb appeal can increase a home’s perceived value by up to 11%. For the average home in Shreveport-Bossier City, that’s about $15,000.
