A WOMAN has revealed that her neighbour\u2019s decision to put up \u00a382k fences in between their respective gardens actually ended up costing HER.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Maggie McGaugh previously explained that her next<\/span> door neighbour had chosen to erect posh fences to separate their two properties.\u00a0<\/p>\n


\n<\/p>\n

But rather than splitting the cost, her \u201cwealthy\u201d neighbour offered to pay the whopping $100k \u2013 approximately \u00a382k \u2013 for the simple black iron design.<\/p>\n

And while Maggie, who is on TikTok under the name @maggiemcgaugh, was initially thrilled by the idea and imagined it would look \u201cphenomenal\u201d, it didn\u2019t last for very long.\u00a0<\/p>\n

That\u2019s because she soon realised that the large fence was made up of bars so you could still see through to each of their homes.\u00a0<\/p>\n

At the time, the US based woman said: \u201cWe were thinking, if you\u2019re spending that much money on a fence, it must be phenomenal.<\/p>\n

\u201cPersonally if I were dropping more than $10k on a fence, which is pretty much what everyone has to spend as a minimum on a fence nowadays, I would want to not see through it.<\/p>\n

\u201cBut he chose to spend this much money on a fence and still be able to see through it.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cHe did concrete on the bottom, and then brick, and then this iron bar \u2013 and it\u2019s big,\u201d she said as she panned the entirety of the fence around his plush property.\u00a0<\/p>\n

While Maggie insisted she was extremely grateful to her neighbour for solely taking on the cost, she\u2019s since revealed she\u2019s had to take action of her own.<\/p>\n

In a more recent clip posted to her social media profile, Maggie returned with the latest installment of the fence saga.\u00a0<\/p>\n

And she said she\u2019d ended up paying out for privacy screens after realising just how much you could see of their home.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Filming her newly renovated outdoor swimming pool, Maggie said:\u00a0 After we got our pool done, we realised our neighbour had a direct view of it, and it was just a little weird.<\/p>\n

\u201cSo we built a fence in front of his fence,\u201d she continued.\u00a0<\/p>\n

However, the TikToker was quick to clarify their reasoning, as well as her neighbour\u2019s response.\u00a0<\/p>\n

She explained: \u201cBefore people come at me, he was not upset with it.<\/p>\n

I wish it had privacy, [so] we took care of it<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s a huge property and we only covered up a small portion of it for privacy.<\/p>\n

\u201cAnd the only part we covered was the [part of] the house that really has no windows \u2013 it\u2019s just his garage.<\/p>\n

\u201cBut for all the people that were saying that I was super unappreciative because I just said I wish it had privacy, we took care of it.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

And while some said they would have done things differently, others said they had to agree with Maggie.<\/p>\n

One of her million plus followers responded: \u201cThat would make me feel weird to enjoy my pool with no privacy, so I agree with you.\u201d<\/p>\n
