Which neighbor is really a nut?

I don't know what to make of this commercial.  The voice over suggests that this man is finding a solution to a problem, the problem being the garishly painted Victorian house in his field of view. Thus he plants trees and grows an enormous hedge, which requires, I imagine, regular pruning. But I can only see this character as a raging neurotic with no sense of humor since the neighboring house is rather whimsical and this hedge-planter is also blocking some gorgeous scenery or rolling hills. This is a very weird message.
