Woman desperate for outside privacy creates ‘genius’ solution – and it’s divided opinion
ARE you tired of people being able to peek into your garden and want more privacy?
A woman has revealed how she added a simple feature into her outdoor space which instantly made it more private and also stylish.
Jade Doutch showed how she made a very chic outdoor fireplace which perfectly hid her garden from view.
On her @jadedoutch account, she explained: “Adding privacy to my garden with style.”
She first replaced her fence with much higher wooden panels.
Then she added a wood burner stove and then two high wood stores to display the logs.
The finished result looked very cosy and perfect for summer nights outside with friends.
And there was no way people could crane their necks over and see what they were doing.
Her home transformation video has racked up over 1,700 likes and people were quick to comment on her trick.
One said: “This is genius.”
Another added: “What an amazing job, very nice.”
However, some pointed out that there are restrictions when it comes to the height of fences, although Jade didn’t specify how high hers was.
According to BLB Solicitors: “With regard to the height of the fence, if it abuts a highway used by vehicles (or the footpath of such a highway if there is one), it cannot exceed one metre in height from ground level.
“In all other situations, a fence cannot exceed two metres in height from ground level.”
