Georgian houses
Symmetrical brick townhouses
Georgian houses are British residential buildings constructed during the reigns of the four King Georges (1714–1830), characterized by symmetrical facades, sash windows, classical proportions, and restrained ornamentation.
The style emphasizes balance and order: a row of Georgian houses with their distinctive fanlights and iron railings.
The term applies broadly to this architectural period and its revivals.
