What a Fenced Yard Is Worth in Thornton

• Privacy fence versus open. A 6-foot cedar privacy fence is the standard in Thornton subdivisions; split-rail with wire is the rule in many HOA communities that ban privacy fences. The listing says fenced; the HOA says what kind.
• Fence condition and who owns it. Cedar lasts 15 to 20 years in Colorado sun. A leaning fence is a $3,000 to $8,000 replacement, and the neighbor shares the line and sometimes the cost.
• Gates and side yards. A double gate to the side yard is RV, boat and trailer access. Buyers pay for it in Thornton.
• Dogs and the HOA. Fenced does not mean dogs are unrestricted. Breed rules, dog counts and leash rules live in the covenants; we read them.
• Acreage fencing. On rural Thornton lots, "fully fenced" means perimeter fencing for horses or livestock. Pasture fencing and cross-fencing are worth real money.
