Front yard fence ideas: 11 beautiful boundaries for your home

There are lots of reasons why you should consider front yard fence ideas for your plot – from the aesthetic value they offer to the practical factors.

Any garden fence is beneficial for defining the perimeter of a space – whether that's the border between you and the next-door plot or your own patio from your lawn. And when it comes to front yard fences, they set the boundary between your home and the outside world. 

'One of the most obvious benefits is increased security, as a good-quality front yard fence can be an extra parameter to keeping unwanted visitors out and pets and children in,' says Screen With Envy's Founder and Lead Designer, Sophie Birket. 'This is especially important if you live on a busy street.

'By zoning your front yard, you can also add more privacy to your space by obstructing the view of nosy neighbors while also minimizing noise pollution,' she adds. But that's not all front yard fences are good for. With all manner of designs to choose from, they can give your plot instant curb appeal, welcome guests in style, and set the right tone for your home. 

From traditional picket fences to ornate designs, these looks are sure to pep up your front yard landscaping, whatever style you're going for.
