Fusing A Traditional Touch Into A New Build Property

House buyers drawn to new build residences find attraction in their newness and identify the potential there is to personalise their look for individualism. But some are less enticed by new builds, believing they lack character and/or regard them as too sleek.

You can embed a new build with traditional charm if you envision purchasing one as your next home, it’s just a case of knowing how.

Luckily, you have Budget Windows to fill you in on what you can do to separate a new build from looking like every other house on the estate.

Adopt use of heritage windows

Windows are a standout element of traditional homes and tend to be intricately designed with enduring personality. Cottage windows beautifully mirror the aesthetic of heritage windows of times past.

Possessing equal charm to classic windows, these cottage windows deliver modern levels of energy efficiency, security, and functionality. Advise a Budget consultant if you want to incorporate glazing bars or divided panes for an enhanced appearance reminiscent of traditional architecture.

Along with bolstering exterior aesthetics, they will also lure a larger volume of light into the building, fostering a more uplifting indoor ambience.

Champion an abiding finish

Encapsulating traditional charm is heavily reliant on the window and door colour that you nominate for a new build installation. White, cream, and black finishes are abundantly chosen for contemporary residences as they’re seen as minimalist, and there are various hues with more than a hint of tradition about them.

Chartwell Green is a shining example of the latter, a muted green shade that embodies the same tranquillity and sophistication associated with countryside estates and landmark manor homes.

Copy the trend of installing a Chartwell Green front door featuring a classic white trim, certain to bring timelessness to a new build and single it out from neighbouring dwellings.

Assimilate some vintage detailing

Vintage touches around the house will infuse traditional elegance and can include everything from the inclusion of antique light fixtures, reclaimed wooden beams, rustic flooring, and ornate door hardware.

Round them off with a tastefully distressed sofa or table as a centrepiece of a room and vintage artwork, patterned wallpaper, or framed botanical prints adorning the walls. Additionally, varying rich textures of natural materials like stone and wood feels authentic to an historic home.

Immersing a new build with vintage traces is the formula to transforming an impersonal location into somewhere bursting with lived-in warmth.

An elevation of aesthetic appeal will not be the sole upshot of the incorporating of traditional charm as it’s also certain to instil comfort and a nostalgic-like atmosphere. To involve Budget Windows in the process of pulling off the traditional effect, simply get in touch.
