Front fences for older Heidelberg homes

The Heidelberg School of painters took its name from the area, and Banyule Homestead, built in 1846, is on the Victorian Heritage Register. On an older home, the front fence is the first thing people see.

A timber picket fence about waist height, with a matching gate, suits a lot of older homes. If yours is under a heritage overlay, a planning control that protects the look of older streets, check your property report first, because it can cover front fences.

Fences next to Banyule parks

If your fence backs onto one of Banyule's parks or reserves, the council may put money toward replacing it, based on the average cost of a standard 1.65 m timber fence.

Apply before any work starts. Council asks for two contractor quotes, and it pays the contractor once it has inspected the finished fence.

Fencing questions from Heidelberg

  1. Sometimes. A heritage overlay or other planning control can cover front fences, so check your property report on VicPlan, the state's free online planning map, or ask Banyule before you book.

  2. Yes. We build the gate in the same timber and style as the fence.

  3. Not usually. Banyule's contribution is for a fence that backs onto one of its parks or reserves, and most front fences face the street. It also pays toward a replacement fence, not repairs.
