The property comprises a Grade II Listed house accessed with a carriage driveway off Thunder Lane. The principal residence is Georgian with the original section comprising the “Covey House”, a self-contained cottage built of brick and Knapp flint, dating from the C18.

The property was subsequently extended in the early C19, possibly 1803, and is constructed of gault brick, built under a hipped pantile roof. This Georgian section has a southern aspect and is accessed by a stone staircase leading to the main entrance hall. The Georgian element is resplendent with well-proportioned reception rooms, high ceilings, sash windows, working shutters and open fireplaces with ornate surrounds and mantlepieces.

The current owners have lived in the property for over 40 years, and the property has an abundance of character and ambience. Built over a lower ground and two upper floors, the White House offers a combination of various layouts, ideal for entertaining.

The rear entrance hall with its circular pine corner cupboard, has an art décor style staircase leading down to the kitchen/Breakfast room. This bright room, fitted with wall and base units, has French windows opening onto a sheltered west facing terrace and an ornamental pond. Offset to the side and located under the first and second floor Covey House, is a utility room and a garden room/store.

The front entrance hall provides access down to two offices/reception rooms with a fireplace, pamment floors, gas meter, consumer units and a storeroom.

A staircase leads up to the first floor with three bedrooms with south or east facing aspects. All have a fireplace. The principal bedroom has fitted cupboards and direct access to the principal bathroom complete with a corner bath, double sink set in a vanity unit, WC and a red brick corner fireplace with an oak bressummer.

The rear entrance hall has steps up to a landing and inner corridor with access to a fully tiled wet room, WC and shower. Double part glazed doors open to a Family room with a fireplace and French windows overlooking the west facing garden. A fluted arched architrave separates the Family room from a study area.

On the mezzanine upper floor is a fourth bedroom with built-in cupboards and access to a dressing room. A door from the dressing room leads to the annex.

The White House was named after the White Friars of Norwich, whom it is believed owned the land originating from the pre 12th Century.
