But before we dive into the details, do not worry - there are multiple window styles available for period properties at Bluemanor Windows. All thanks to our bespoke ranges, features and accessories. Read on to find out more. 

Georgian Homes: Preserving Elegance with Authenticity

Georgian period homes are renowned for their elegant and symmetrical designs. When it comes to replacing windows in Georgian properties, it is essential to choose options that replicate the authentic style. Here at Bluemanor Windows, as a reputable local company in the double glazing industry, we offer uPVC windows that are so flexible in design, they can be specifically designed for Georgian homes. 

When designing your Georgian windows, feature surface mounted, astragal Georgian glazing bars, which - you can be sure - it will add a touch of authenticity to the overall design. For this kind of window, our sliding sash windows will perfectly complement the Georgian architectural style.

Manufactured by Roseview, these windows are a true representation of elegance as they immediately evoke the style of period homes. Incorporating a six-panel grid design on both top and bottom sashes, you can achieve the Georgian architecture that featured larger windows with maximum pane size. 

Victorian Homes: Embracing Ornate Details

Victorian homes are characterised by their ornate details and intricate designs. To maintain the original charm of Victorian properties, slimline uPVC sash windows with the option of sash horns are an excellent choice. Bluemanor Windows offers these slimline sash windows, which not only replicate the traditional style but also provide modern functionality. The slim frames allow for larger glass panes, maximising natural light and creating a bright and airy living space.

Once again, manufactured by Roseview Windows, Victorian sash windows can feature ‘two over two panel’ grid design on both top and bottom panes to authentically replicate the gorgeous Victorian architecture. 

Edwardian Homes: Incorporating Spaciousness & Light 

Edwardian homes are commonly known for their spaciousness, elegance and lighter interiors, featuring the best of both worlds from the Georgian and Victorian eras. To produce this final product, this style of windows includes classic aesthetics but much larger glass panes than Victorian windows, thus letting in more light into your space. 

If you have an Edwardian home, opt out for the ‘six panes over two’ look with fewer astragal bars and sash horns. You will not only have larger glass panes with beautiful horn designs but also benefit from the functionality of the simple yet effective windows.
