Fencing among the trees
Killearn Lakes Plantation sits in far northeast Leon County, roughly between Bannerman Road, Thomasville Road and Bull Headley Road, in the Bradfordville area. It's a large community known for walking trails, wildlife, lakes and a lot of woods. Many residents keep their yards partly wooded on purpose.
That makes fence layout a matter of threading between trees rather than clearing a line. A fence that curves around a big hardwood or jogs to miss a root flare looks better and keeps the yard's character. Contractors who work here are used to it.
From plantation land to a lake community
The land north of Tallahassee was plantation country in the nineteenth century and later became hunting plantation land, much of it around Lake Iamonia, one of the larger natural lakes in the region. Killearn Lakes Plantation grew from that landscape as Killearn Properties, the company behind Killearn Estates, extended its development north.
Golden Eagle, the gated golf community, sits within Killearn Lakes and shares its homeowners association. The area's schools, trails and quieter pace have made it one of the most sought-after parts of northeast Tallahassee.
Wooded ground and wildlife
Like the rest of the Red Hills, Killearn Lakes has clay-rich soil that holds posts well once they're set, with plenty of roots to work around. The trees that make the area appealing mean more hand digging and more careful post placement than a cleared subdivision lot.
Wildlife is part of life here. Deer, raccoons and the occasional coyote move through, and homeowners with dogs or gardens often want a fence that keeps animals in or out. For pets, a solid bottom or buried barrier matters as much as height.
Protect yourself with a written scope, a clear payment schedule and your own check of the contractor's license and insurance. Be cautious with large cash deposits or pressure to sign the same day.

Fence questions from Killearn Lakes
Does Killearn Lakes have fence rules?
The Killearn Lakes Plantation homeowners association has guidelines. Get approval for the material, height and location before work starts.
Can the fence go around trees instead of removing them?
Yes. Contractors routinely jog or curve a fence line around trees, which usually looks better and protects the tree.
What's the best fence for keeping dogs in?
A fence tall enough for the breed with no gaps at the bottom. Diggers may need a buried wire or a mow strip.
Are these addresses in the city?
Many Killearn Lakes addresses are in unincorporated Leon County, so county rules apply. Confirm for your specific property.
