Cost lever
Conservatory
A traditional glass garden room — mostly glass walls and a glass or polycarbonate roof, often on a low brick base.
What it means for you
A distinctly ornamental, European-style room. Modern ones can be climate-controlled, but as with a solarium the glass roof drives heat swings, so the glass spec and shading matter. You're paying for a specific classic look as much as for function.
Where you'll see it
A high-end, decorative sunroom style.
