Victorian-Style Windows From Everest

Queen Victoria reigned from 1837 to 1900 and during this era, the predominant housing style was the terrace house which is so reflective of British town and city streets. The two predominant styles of terraced houses are the spacious houses with bay windows built for the middle classes and the plain-fronted back-to-back houses of the working class.


The larger terraced house found in wealthy suburbs in cities such as London, Leeds and Manchester have stone dressings that offset windows and it's the windows that were the real feature of these houses. During the Victorian era, protruding windows were built at the front of houses commonly known as the bay window. This add-on area created more space in the front rooms and provided a view along the street. The other key feature of the bay window was its ability for superior ventilation in a room. The two opposing windows would open to create more circulation of air. The bay windows originally were fitted with wooden sash windows but sadly many of these were replaced after being neglected.


For a traditional Victorian window, we recommend wooden sash windows in white. For a more energy efficient and economical window, a uPVC sash window with a woodgrain finish can be the perfect alternative. Some people opt to install a casement window to maximise the large opening of the bay window for maximum light.

Commonly Asked Questions

  • +
    What is the difference between a bay window and a bow window?

    A bay window is when the fabric of the building forms the shape – ie brickwork that protrudes from the property and provides extra space in the building. A bow window is the formation of a curve shape by connecting up a number of windows. This protrudes over the brickwork. With a bay window design, you can enjoy additional light and an extended view. A bow window enables the homeowner to incorporate more glass into the room due to the curve and can go a long way to making your room appear bigger and brighter.

  • +
    Can you have double glazed sash windows?

    Double glazed sash windows are an ideal choice for conservation areas or for those who wish to maintain the look and feel of a period property. You can opt for an authentic timber sash look or a maintenance free uPVC option available in woodgrain finishes.

  • +
    What is the difference between sash and casement windows?

    The most important difference is that sash windows open vertically and casement windows normally open out or in like doors. Sash windows are the traditional window design and at Everest we feel have a classic timeless style that look great in old and new houses alike. A casement window is a modern variant being more practical and offering benefits such as better security as the lock is constructed within the frame and ease of cleaning. Sash windows are more complex in construction and can require some maintenance unlike casement which is very much fit and leave.

  • +
    Can I replace my sash windows with casement windows?

    Before you look to replace sash windows with casement windows it is important you check with your local authority. In some instances, for example if you live in a conservation area or a listed building, it may not be possible to place your sash windows with a modern casement window design or you may need to apply for planning permission. You will also need to consider your local area, to ensure that any change you make is in keeping with your neighbours. Additionally, it is worth considering if replacing your sash windows with casement windows would make the property less desirable for future owners.

    How much do new windows cost?

    The cost of new windows is dependent on so many factors such as style and materials. Many websites do offer lists of prices of their double glazed windows, but these are usually the cost for a basic off-the-shelf window and often without the cost of installation. At Everest, our products are made-to-measure and customised to your taste and home, which is why you won't find a price online as there are too many contributing factors.
