What is a Gable Conservatory?

Gable conservatories are an incredibly ornate and gorgeous extension option that can complement both contemporary and period properties.

A Gable conservatory something of a statement piece, with a design that replicates a Georgian, gothic style that is often seen on rich estates and brings a touch of class to your home.

This classic piece of British heritage will enhance a property by giving it a stately feel.

Aesthetically attractive, the Gable conservatory proves to be a popular style, and is available in a variety of decorative finishes.

Available with either floor length windows or a dwarf wall, a gable conservatory has a triangular, high vaulted roof that creates a flat fronted presentation that creates a stunning visual aesthetic that also provides a great view and extra natural light.

A gable is perfect for either a singular extension, or an addition onto a pre-existing conservatory or extension to create a fabulous entrance.

Unlike other traditional style conservatories such as the Victorian and Edwardian, the Gable conservatory features a high vaulted roof.

Inspired by the roof most commonly used in your average property, the roof meets in the middle of the structure creating a triangle like shape.

The gable conservatory is renowned for its unique sloping roof and is admired by many home owners for its elegant structure. The Gable conservatory combines form and function. Its high vault roof will enhance all available light, providing a bright and airy atmosphere.

Impressive from every angle, you can ‘WOW’ your neighbours and guests with the high apex in the roof.

For bungalows and other height-restricted properties, a hipped-back roof with box gutter is normally the best option.
