What is an Edwardian Conservatory?
Edwardian conservatories are four-sided square or rectangular conservatories with a hipped roof and central ridge. As the name suggests, an Edwardian conservatory takes inspiration from the Edwardian era, and modern versions often include decorative elements like finials and stained glass window designs.

Edwardian Conservatory Features
Four-Sided Design
Most conservatory roofs have only three sides, but an Edwardian conservatory has four. This naturally larger design means you get more light and floorspace. That makes it ideal for those looking to create an impressive room for entertaining.
Hipped Roof
Edwardian conservatories have a hipped roof, giving you four sloping sides with a decorative finish on the ridge. A hipped roof is also less imposing than some roof types, perfect for homes with a lower elevation.
Traditional or Modern Designs
Despite their name, Edwardian conservatories can be customised to fit homes of any age. Choose a solid roof square design with anthracite framing and bifold doors for a stylish addition to the modern home.
Edwardian Conservatory Colour Options
Choose the ideal colour for your Edwardian conservatory, from stylish anthracite grey to natural and warm woodgrain finishes. Some colours are dual colour, meaning the outside dazzles with your chosen colour, while the inside remains white to easily blend with your décor.

Edwardian Conservatory Roof Options
Solid Roof
Create a versatile space and make your conservatory more usable throughout the year with a solid tiled roof. A solid roof provides the most thermally efficient option, helping to keep the space feeling comfortable.
Polycarbonate Roof
Polycarbonate roofs are a cost-effective, practical option that offers lots of natural light, as well as design options for colour and UV protection. If your Edwardian conservatory sees sunshine most of the day, the right polycarbonate panels help control the temperature and protect your furniture.
Glass Roof
Choose a glass roof with SolaroofⓇ technology for high UV protection and effective temperature control. SolaroofⓇ reduces the glare of the sun, as well as reflecting 75% of its heat, helping make your conservatory more usable, no matter the weather.
Edwardian Conservatory Size Options
Small Edwardian Conservatories
A small Edwardian conservatory can be ideal for properties with more limited outdoor space. You might also want a more modest conservatory that only takes up a portion of your home’s exterior, ideal for enjoying views of the garden throughout the year.
Large Edwardian Conservatories
Make a grand statement with a larger Edwardian conservatory, ideal for extensive, detached properties with lots of outdoor space to play with. It could be a space to entertain or somewhere to nurture an indoor plant collection, or just somewhere to relax - or everything at once.

An Edwardian conservatory - or any well-designed and professionally built conservatory - can add up to 7% to a property’s value. The size and style of the conservatory can affect this figure, but the greatest value can be achieved with a spacious conservatory that matches the style of your home.
You can keep your Edwardian conservatory properly maintained by regularly cleaning the windows, doors, and frames. This can be done with soap and water and a soft cloth.

Generally, conservatories don’t need planning permission, but this depends on several factors, like their size and design.
