Edwardian house

Early 1900s dwelling

An Edwardian house is a British home built during the reign of King Edward VII (1901–1910), though the style extends into the early 1920s.

These houses typically feature high ceilings, large windows, lighter interiors than their Victorian predecessors, and decorative touches like bay windows and porches.

The style emphasized space and natural light: They bought a handsome Edwardian house in south London.

In real estate contexts, Edwardian often signals period charm and generous proportions.
