Property description

A substantial classic six bedroom Edwardian detached family house in a non estate location close to the National Trust owned Devil's Punchbowl.

The White House, built in 1905, is set back from the road and provides light and roomy accommodation over three floors. The spaciousness of the large rooms is emphasised by high ceilings with several of the reception rooms also being double aspect. There are wooden floors, period style radiators, brass finished switches and sockets, wooden framed double glazed windows and gas central heating.

Approached through the front porch is an 'L' shaped hall with stairs leading to an impressive galleried landing. There is a sitting room with working fireplace, office and family room with decorative fireplaces and an open plan kitchen/dining room having granite work surfaces and Smeg 6 ring range cooker. Completing the ground floor are a utility room and cloakroom. On the first floor are the main and guest suites along with two further bedrooms and family bathroom with roll top bath. Two further double bedrooms are located on the second floor complemented by a wc.

The property is approached through double five bar gates leading onto a good sized shingle driveway with gated side access to the rear and a storage shed. On the eastern side of the garden, adjoining the kitchen/dining room, is a large paved terrace that leads onto the remainder of the garden which offers a high degree of privacy and is level, lawned and enclosed by established laurel and conifer hedging.
