Devizes Road, Hilperton, BA14

Oak Tree House was designed and built just over a decade ago utilising modern technology within the traditional design of a double fronted home with a central portico. Approached via wrought iron electric gates, the front garden provides plenty of parking as well as planting; a splendid first impression. The central reception hall with a bespoke oak staircase and wooden floor is flanked by the open plan kitchen on one side and drawing room on the other. The kitchen is the heart of the house with handmade kitchen units under marble work surfaces plus integral appliances. On one side is a breakfast area and playroom and the other leads into a central dining area; great for entertaining and for practicality, there is a pantry and utility room. To create a perfect flow through the ground floor, double doors from both the reception hall and dining area lead to the smart drawing room. There is an additional sitting room, home office and a great spa room with swim up pool and jacuzzi, impressive glass ceiling lantern and bi-fold doors opening out to the garden. A further games room, gym, bedroom and shower room could easily be used as a self-contained two bedroom annexe with its own entrance. Four bedrooms, all with en-suite bathrooms, two with balconies, lead off the first floor landing, with the principal bedroom also having the benefit of a dressing room. The attic floor houses the fifth bedroom with en-suite; a teenager’s dream bedroom or perfect guest suite above the family accommodation.

Outside

The front garden is enclosed offering privacy and security for children and pets. The handsome façade is enhanced by block brick paving with borders of lavender to the front. The driveway continues down the side of the house leading to a detached double garage. Carefully thought out, there is a cloakroom and home office above for those who work from home. The rear garden has a Choice of terraces for alfresco dining as well as a summer house. Laid to lawn, this level garden provides plenty of space for relaxing and play and abuts open countryside.
