The Property

The White House is a charming detached house on a large plot of land, nestled away in a popular residential area and sits in a sheltered position offering deceptively spacious accommodation.

There is a warm and welcoming hallway leading to the kitchen. This room has wall and floor units for storage along with a Belfast sink, and space for freestanding appliances. There is also a door providing access to the rear garden and a window offering fine views over the garden and beyond. The dining room has a feature fireplace (for cosmetic purposes only)) and has direct access into the bright sun room/office offering further views over the garden. The spacious sitting room has an attractive wood burning stove set in a brick inglenook. This room also has glass doors opening directly into the garden. The principal bedroom is located on the ground floor and has an en-suite shower room and built in storage. There is a further bedroom on the ground floor off the sitting room, which could also be utilised as snug.

The first floor comprises two further well proportioned double bedrooms. The family bathroom includes a shower over the bath, WC and wash hand basin which completes the internal accommodation

The White House offers an excellent opportunity with potential to extend subject to relevant planning. The White House has been rented out successfully for the last three years at a rent of £925 per month. It would now benefit from some updating.

Local planning authorities have indicated willingness to support consent for a large
kitchen/diner extension to the rear of the property with off-street parking, and for construction of a garden annexe set in the woodland to the rear. Letters and architect's plans relevant to these are available for inspection at the property. Plans also show space for the addition of an en-suite shower and a new family bathroom on the first floor.

Externally
The large garden which is mainly laid to lawn lies to the rear with shrubberies and flower beds. There is a patio area also to the rear offering privacy and ideal for sitting out in the warmer months.

The property further benefits from a large woodland area at the rear of the garden extending to approximately 0.3 acres and offering considerable scope.

A gated driveway leads to the rear of the house with parking.
