Additionally, West Virginia has a special statute for hedge fences. A hedge fence may not extend more than 18 inches over the dividing line of a neighbor's property or into a public road. A violation of this statute could result in a 10 day notice to correct the problem.
The exact amount a building needs to be set back from the property line will vary from one location to another. However, the required setback on the side is typically between 5 10 feet, while the front and back require around 10 20 feet at a minimum.
According to our Property Laws, encroachment is described as a situation where the airspace over the neighbour's land is invaded by objects originating from the land owner's property or where a boundary line between properties is overreached.
Boundary FencesPartition fences must be "lawful" as defined by West Virginia Code, unless the adjoining landowners agree in writing to build a fence of different specifications.
Check Rules and Regulations Typically, fences are installed anywhere from 2 to 8 inches from a property line in most areas. Some areas might allow to go right up to a property line, especially if you live in an urban row house where every inch makes a difference!
How Close To The Property Line Can I Build? Fences are typically built between 2 and 8 inches from the line between properties. Some areas will allow the building of fences directly on the property line, but in this case, you'll have to cooperate with your neighbor and potentially share the cost of the fence.
Yes. Yes, you can build next to your neighbour's fence. As long as you're inside your property line you're fine. One consideration: your posts might have to be staggered relative to the fence posts of the existing fence.
West Virginia fencing requirements state that most fences should be at least four feet high for both property boundaries and those along public right of ways. Worm rail fences must be 4 1/2 feet tall, while stone fences need only be 3 1/2 feet tall and 2 feet wide.
The building distance limit depends on the structure you intend on building. It usually ranges between five to 15 feet. It is important to communicate property boundaries with your neighbor before beginning any permanent or semi-permanent projects, due to the risk of township or county penalties.
