the front exterior of a house, apartment, or another building that faces a street or river
Frontage refers to the portion of a property that faces a street, road, or open space. It is the part of the property that is visible from the front and typically has the main entrance or access. The term is often used in real estate to describe how much of a property is exposed to a particular street or view. A property with a larger frontage may have more space or better visibility, which can make it more valuable. Frontage is important for things like zoning, access, and property development.
