DIVIDE & CONQUER

Wish you could turn privacy on and off? The new retractable gate technology Fancy Fence makes that possible. The concrete vault and motor, located underground, allow homeowners to raise and lower the fence, so that it’s only visible when they want it to be. The glass-enclosed swimming pool (RIGHT) is a particularly fetching option. George Berry (555 Eighth Ave., Ste. 1602, New York, 914-709-7813; fancyfence.pl), the exclusive East Coast distributor, will install the first Fancy Fence in his Hamptons home in September, but the company already has 28 requests so far. Time to get off the fence and onto the waiting list.— Callie Chute
