What an outdoor enthusiast's home design dreams are made of.

Neighborhood: Devonshire

For the outdoor enthusiast, this home is what dreams are made of. Built in the late 1980s and positioned in one of Dallas most popular neighborhoods, the unique property fits in well with Devonshire’s eclectic mix of charming cottages, updated homes and large, newly built houses.

Bud Oglesby’s contemporary architecture is complimented by the warmth of Santa Fe styling, creating a space that looks comfortable and inviting despite the occasional 18 feet of floor to ceiling glass windows. More features to love: beautiful ceiling beams, wide plank pine floors, an automatic gate, electric shades (the dream!), and a guesthouse.

If ever you were to tire of basking in the beauty of the surrounding lake from the comfort of your couch while sipping on vino from your built-in wine cooler, Devonshire’s location offers quick and easy access to the tollway. Basically, we’re pretty sure the Dixie Chicks sang “Wide Open Spaces” about this house. Though the foundation here is made of “Pier and Beam” not stone, but we’ll just look past that.
