Front Elevation Help Needed!

10 years ago

I'm having trouble deciding what to do with windows for my house. It's not very symmetrical. In general the windows need to stay in the same place. Some initial thoughts:

The side by side double hung windows on the top floor would be replaced with the 6 over 6 grid double hung windows.
* The bottom left window could be make to match the two above with side by side 6 over 6 double hung windows.

* I'm not sure if we'd like to keep the bay window in the front or not.
* The small casement window is for a bathroom that could be made into a more standard double hung.

Looking for suggestions! Thanks in advance!

    yes to going all double hung, and increasing the bath window, and loose the bay window in favor of matching the one above it.


    all the shutters are the wrong size and they are not helping you.
