Windows to Instantly Improve Your Curb Appeal

Architectural Unity 

When the windows on your house are in harmony with the architectural style of the build, the unity creates an appealing facade. Each architectural style pairs best with different windows, so identifying your home’s architectural style is a great way to narrow your window options.

Homes in the Northeast typically fall into one of the following architectural categories: 

• Colonial Style
• Georgian Houses
• Adam-Style (or Federal) 
• Greek Revival
• Victorian

If you’re unsure of your home’s architectural style, there are still a number of ways to choose windows that enhance its natural design and boost its curb appeal. 

Bold Frames 

Windows with thick frames create a focal point for your home’s exterior design. However, choosing a bold window design doesn’t necessarily mean choosing a busy window design. Bold frames can pack a visual punch without detracting from the rest of the exterior. For example, picture windows, sliding windows and casement windows all offer thick, sturdy frames with or without grilles. 

Wood windows complement many home styles commonly found in the Northeast. For an added pop, choose a stain or paint color for wooden windows that provides a point of contrast for your home’s color palette.

Enhance Unique Features 

Every home has unique features that can be a highlight or an eyesore depending on how you handle them. With the right windows, you can emphasize those special quirks instead of allowing them to detract from your home’s appearance. 

Of course, choosing a window from a catalog is not always the easiest way to handle unique design elements, and that’s where Pella’s extensive inventory and expertise comes in. With choices like special shape and custom designed windows, improving your curb appeal is easier than ever. 

Special Shape Windows

From smooth curves to sharp, modern angles, special shape windows can create a stunning facade. Because these windows are less common, placing the right one in the right place can easily elevate your home’s curb appeal. Combine curved half-circle windows with a more common double-hung window to create a unique combination that creates natural light and adds visual interest. 

Custom Windows

For the ultimate in one-of-a-kind visual appeal, consider adding a custom window to your home. Designed and built to fit your specific needs, a Pella custom window creates a show-stopping exterior. Working with our window experts, you can create a window that suits your home’s style and highlights its unique architectural features. Plus, you can choose unique performance features that meet your lifestyle needs. 

Quality Craftsmanship 

Curb appeal isn’t limited to the shape and size of your windows. Upon closer inspection, a “pretty” exterior can fall short if it lacks quality. Like fast fashion, poorly constructed window styles deteriorate quickly. For the longevity of your home’s curb appeal (and the best possible performance), invest in windows that are crafted with quality in mind — from the materials to the installation and everywhere in between.
