There’s one thing that everyone agrees on when it comes to timber sash windows. They’re classic, stylish and timeless. Not only are they relics from a bygone age of glorious architecture, they add subtle elegance and charm to any kind of home – from modern buildings with minimalist interiors to period properties with wooden beams and intricate details. They’re capable of bringing any building to life, both inside and out, and the range of details and features you can have on awood sash windowis truly remarkable; it’s one of the things that makes them so popular.
