4 Ideas for Property Privacy

4 Ideas for Property Privacy

Longer summer days mean more time to enjoy the great outdoors after work, on weekends, and anytime your schedule allows. Still, personal privacy is always a factor. You want to create an inviting space where friends, family, and loved ones will feel safe relaxing without fear of prying eyes.

At the same time, you might be hesitant to install a bulky fence or otherwise block your view or that of your neighbors. Thankfully, there are ways to achieve privacy goals while still maintaining a pleasant connection with nature. Here are some of the most popular ideas:

1) Less is More

Many homeowners today rely on “bare bones” style fencing that allows in sunlight and views of nature, while still making it clear to passersby that privacy is intended and appreciated.

Research the average cost of a firm fence as well as the additions that will ensure your privacy. Bamboo and wood are popular choices, or you could opt for a metal design with gaps in between the bars for some extra flair.

One way to accomplish this is through creative use of a high-quality pergola or ultra-lattice shade. Not only do these eye-catching structures provide the safety you desire, but they’re also a conversation piece and relaxing haven. Some people choose to allow vines to crawl up the sides of their pergolas for extra interest and ambiance. 

An added benefit of pergolas is the versatility they offer. Along with personal comfort, pergolas can easily be used for entertaining — creating an ideal and intimate spot for summertime parties.

2) Bring the Outside In

Increasing in popularity, screen rooms are an excellent way to enjoy some fresh air and the sun’s warmth while avoiding the unpleasant aspects of summer in Florida, including bugs, oppressive humidity, and other factors. Many people install an overhead fan in their Florida sunrooms for added comfort.

Similar to screen rooms, pool enclosures in Florida make it possible to enjoy your outdoor pool no matter the weather or time of day. In addition, naturally-tinted mesh fiberglass screens lend to increased privacy and security.  

Plus, circulating water in your pool will mask outside sounds, including home construction projects, barking dogs, and other noises. This helps you maintain a relaxed and comfortable mood inside your pool enclosure.

3) Windows and Treatments

Window technology has come a long way. Along with tinting, custom windows contribute to increased energy efficiency and decreased outside noise. Impact-resistant options also keep you and your family safe from bird strikes and during times of severe weather, such as hurricanes and tornadoes.

High-quality aluminum shutters perform double duty. Adding interest and function, they’re also ideal for protecting your property against severe weather scenarios. When coupled with impact-resistant windows, you get the peace of mind that your home is secure.

In addition, aluminum awnings allow you to enjoy the natural beauty of your property without compromising the privacy of those inside. Awnings also protect from wind, rain, and harmful UV rays.
