Byes LaneSilchester, Reading, Hampshire, RG7 2QB

The Oaks is an impressive modern home set along the peaceful Byes Lane in Silchester. Built in 2018 to a high standard and beautifully redecorated by the current owners. It offers a fresh, modern interior with an immediate sense of quality.

The vaulted reception hall with its galleried landing creates a striking first impression, drawing light through the centre of the house and setting the tone for the generous, well-planned accommodation that follows.

The dual-aspect kitchen and breakfast room forms the natural heart of the home, with bi-fold doors opening onto the garden. The hand made wooden kitchen is a particular feature with ample granite worktops. There are integrated appliances, and an electric Rangemaster Stove. The kitchen breakfast room flows into a spacious family room with a feature double sided log burning fire, which is shared with the living room.

The utility room has a full height fridge and full height freezer, with built-in storage units that match the kitchen cabinets. Space and plumbing for a washing machine and a tumble dryer. This room also has a heated airing cupboard and provides access to the plant room. There is a door leading to the driveway and gardens.

The ground floor continues through the entrance hall which in turn leads to a living room with French doors providing access to the rear garden. There is also a dining room, home office and cloakroom.

Upstairs, the principal bedroom is a generous double aspect retreat with the rear views being over the garden and farmland beyond. There is a newly fitted en suite featuring a large walk-in shower. There are three additional double bedrooms, all with fitted wardrobes, one with its own en suite shower room, and a family bathroom containing a bath and separate shower. All of the rear bedrooms enjoy beautiful views over the garden and farmland.

Outside

The property is approached through electric gates that open onto a large gravel driveway leading to a detached double garage with electrically operated garage doors. An attached carport with an electric vehicle charging point also has a personal door to the garage. There is a further large store room behind the garage. The gardens are a standout feature, wrapping around the house and offering a series of beautifully landscaped areas designed for relaxation and entertaining. The front garden is neatly arranged and welcoming, while the rear garden opens onto wide lawns bordered by mature planting, that enhances the sense of space and privacy. A greenhouse and garden shed provide useful storage, and the thoughtful layout ensures the grounds are both attractive and practical. There are a number of outside power points and garden taps.

The property benefits from an air source heat pump, and underfloor heating throughout. Solar panels and a 13kwh battery were installed in 2024, contributing to the EPC A rating. A modern security system with cameras is also installed.
The Oaks is a home that combines modern build quality with thoughtful upgrades, attractive design, and a setting that captures the best of village living. With its light-filled interiors, efficient systems, generous gardens, and immaculate presentation, it stands as a property that is ready to be enjoyed from the moment you step through the front door.
