This 1930s Edwardian style home, originally purpose built to be a doctor’s surgery, has been transformed into a stunning contemporary property, pulling inspiration from the homeowners and their love for New England style homes.
The owners chose a range of around 50 George Barnsdale’s products, including spiral balance sash timber windows with Georgian bars, flush casement windows, single and double entrance doors, and timber bifolds. In their home they chose Traffic White (RAL 9016) windows with satin chrome hardware and various shades of blue, including Night Blue (RAL 5022), for the doors to compliment the windows throughout. All these products were made using FSC-certified Engineered Softwood timber frames and a combination of Grandis Hardwood and Engineered Softwood timber cills and sashes. Engineered Softwood is great for windows and doors requiring a paint finish. Engineered timber is also free of knots and imperfections, enhancing the aesthetics and preventing the risk of damage to the coatings in the long term, so this timber was the ideal choice for this home.
‘The entire process was remarkably smooth, especially the installation of the windows and doors. These products were a big investment, but we are so pleased with the outcome and glad we chose to work with QBD and George Barnsdale’
