In this current house though, the room I really wanted to place it in is a 3-season room that's attached to the back of the house, in which 3 of the walls are all windows. Placing the dart board on a windowed wall would not only block the view, but also risk a window breakage if a dart should miss the board. The fourth wall is made of brick and is actually the back of the house (from before they added this room) and also has one window and a sliding glass door. Mounting the board on the brick would require making holes in it, as well as ruining the tips of any darts that might miss the board.
So the solution I came up with is to make the dart board mount in the window that's in the brick wall, but also make it removable. It could slide in and out of the mounting brackets that were previously used for the screen (when the window was exposed to the outside). The end result can be seen in the pictures below.
This allows the walls to remain unmarred, but we can also still use the dart board (with minimal effort). The height is regulation, and it's in a location that suits the room perfectly, both functionally and aesthetically.
