How to improve?

[Queenofkittens]

This is my house (owned so I don't mind spending money on it) and I'm tired of people walking right up to the windows, even had someone peering in once! And now kids are playing knock door ginger which I know is common but I'm fed up with how easy it is to do all this. I want suggestions on how to make it more private? The area to the left is my land too and essentially used as a drive, so putting fencing the whole way round isn't gonna work as I would then be closing off that land, and I think it might look weird only half way round where the window is? The line on the floor is my land and then a flat pavement. Any ideas?

Plants & hedges in containers.

Blinds on the windows, pots that are low but quite wide underneath so that people can't get so close, but still Room to park

Plant hedges, or could you fence of most of it leaving some room for your car? Get a sign up that very clearly states 'Private property, no trespassing beyond this point'. Get CCTV as well. I won't lie, my DC would nose dive for the window if they seen a cat or dog at the window whilst I drag them away quietly.

It would be nice to have some greenery anyway. Plant prickly / thorny bushes under the windows.

Hedges round the edge, leaving space for the car to come in and out.

I'd also be tempted to put a lawn in just to have some greenery to look at, but that is a lot of work.
