Best Windows for Traditional- or Colonial-Style Homes

Finding the perfect windows for your traditional-style home can feel difficult when it’s time for a replacement. It is important that your new windows don’t take away from the old world charm of your classic home but it’s likely that you’re still going to want a modern window that will enhance the energy efficiency of your residence. Some of the popular window styles that allow for this unique balance include:

Casement Windows

Casement windows were originally common in the Victorian era and their modern counterparts are the perfect option for traditional homes. These beautiful windows are crank-operated and very energy efficient thanks to airtight seals that fit perfectly into the frame and prevent air from escaping. 

Double-Hung Windows

For a simple look at your colonial-style home, double-hung windows are a popular choice because they will coordinate well with many traditional styles of architecture. Furthermore, they also allow for easy ventilation because you can simply slide the top sash down and bottom sash up to let in air when the weather allows for it.

Bay & Bow Windows

Bow windows consist of four or five windowpanes in a curved shape while bay windows typically have three panels. This will create a beautiful angular window protruding from your home’s exterior wall that is the perfect way to add character to your traditional-style home. Oftentimes, these unique window arrangements will become the focal point of a room because they are large and let in plenty of natural light.
