I don’t have a walkway yet but it’ll be something like flagfield stepping stones.
Also was thinking of doing something completely different for a shed like a ship lap vertical board black shed. What do you think? Black or keep the white?

@tammy nghiem …. i would try to keep the shed as inconspicuous as possible since i rarely find them attractive. Landscaping & fencing provide ” a buffer & privacy”, not sheds.

I would not put a shed in the front of the house. It won’t look good, and it will be a magnet for thieves.

IMO by the time you allow for hubby to move the trailer throgh there there will not be much space for landscaping and I agree garden sheds best when not a feature at the front of the house . Put a fence up as high as allowed that is the best for privacy and find another home for the trailer like maybe in the garage I see on the other side .

Do you have kids? Playhouse might be more appealing to the neighbors than a shed. (And you can use it as a shed.) However, you'll need a very big and expensive structure if you are trying to create privacy with it.

You probably need to get out a lot of string and rocks and map out on the ground how much space is needed to pull in a trailer and where.

I don't what climate zone you are in, but a rose of sharon privacy hedge would look really nice with your cute house. Do a google search to see what I mean.

For a corner lot I would want some kind of fence or hedges to prevent people from cutting across the lawn.

Be sure to check what your town allows and doesn't allow. There are some towns that don't allow fences or built-structures. If you make a fence with living plants, that is always ok.

It seems an odd location for a shed. And, a shed seems an odd choice for privacy. I also don't understand what is left of this area if you have a shed and tailer area here too.

100% Check local ordinance and or bylaws before proceeding. Lots of rules about accessory buildings and or fences going in front of the house.Trellis/ Arbors create a sense of space and direction to a side patio...Would a WRAP around porch be allowed? Resale through the MOON on houses w wrap arounds.

Sometimes exceptions are made for fencing codes on corner lots. Depends.

If possible fence off that whole section of the property to the left of the house, and include a gate for the trailer.

If you will be using the side yard as a back yard, you don’t want husband driving through there. Can the trailer go behind the house or garage?

I suggest you contact your local government for ordinances. Communities have codes that they enforce for set backs on fences AND sheds, etc. Some areas require neighbor approval for fences and sheds that are near lot lines. Do your research first. If you build/fence without permits, you can be fined AND required to remove them.

Hello everyone! I have already done my due diligence and i can have a shed, fence and anything involving the city’s ordinances. I only ask for ideas on style and design. Thank you for your concerns and opinions.

Awesome they let you do what you want. Here is my suggestion to fence that whole left section along the property line and from the sidewalk all the way to the back. With a gate for the trailer.

If you want real privacy, where people sitting or playing in the yard cannot be seen from the street, then the most affordable way to do it is with living plants that grow high enough. Your local nursery can tell you what is fast growing and will stay healthy in your climate zone. Again, I would favor rose of sharon if at all possible, but see what your neighbors have. Willows are also very pretty. Most flowering bushes drop their leaves in winter, so if you want year-round privacy, you will need to plant evergreens.

If you need fencing to keep pets or toddlers inside the yard, a privacy hedge won't give you that security. If you have children, avoid plants with thorns. Barberry is one of the worst, as are rose hedges. Be sure to ask your nursery about it because not all plants show their thorns until long after planting.
