Exclusive New Homes Enhanced with Timber Windows

Many developers of top end properties in exclusive locations are opting for timber windows and patio doors to add a distinctive look and feel to their homes.

Mapleton Homes, based in Kent, has recently constructed two prestigious six bedroom five bathroom homes, with attractive sliding sash windows and French-style patio doors. One of the properties features a 12 foot high JELD-WEN timber feature window, with an attractive arched top that spans two storeys and lets the maximum amount of light filter through to the hallway. The other property features a conservatory constructed from JELD-WEN’s bespoke timber windows, which is again proving an excellent way of letting the maximum amount of light into the home.

Mapleton Homes is a developer of high quality homes and has for a long time recognised the value and prestige that timber sliding sash timber windows add to a development - and the results are stunning, as Tony Pell from JELD-WEN explains: 'Windows and patio doors play a major part in enhancing and increasing the appeal of a home. The developer chose sliding sash timber windows and large bespoke feature windows along with a purpose-built conservatory because the superior sight lines on timber windows let in the maximum amount of light, creating a spacious and airy feel in the properties. Their attractive Tudor style ensures they complement the local area and timber windows and doors play an important role in enhancing this authentic feel.'

These luxury homes are constructed from exclusive hand-made brick and traditional roof tiles which, when complemented by timber windows and doors provide a truly distinctive look and feel that fits perfectly into the surrounding area.

JELD-WEN timber windows were supplied factory finished to provide the best quality finish and feel along with enhanced performance. All JELD-WEN’s factory finished products have a six year guarantee on Hi-build factory stained or a 10 year guarantee on Hi-build factory painted windows.

Tony Pell said: 'A growing area of our business is with private developers looking to create a prestigious feel through sympathetic build styles. Sliding sash windows are a true design classic and developers recognise how they enhance and add value to their developments. This development is the perfect demonstration of how timber windows and doors can be used to add value and create a distinctive feel to individual properties.'

All JELD-WEN’s factory glazed timber windows and doors are fitted with 24mm Low E glazing units, which enables them to achieve some of the best U-values currently available and also meet the updated Part L requirements. JELD-WEN also offers the latest glazing types, such as self-cleaning glass and windows with acoustic properties, as well as special styles and designer windows.

All JELD-WEN’s softwood timber windows are also PEFC Chain of Custody Certified, which ensures they originate from well managed forests.
