5 bedroom house

Situated in the heart of Penn with views to the front over the village green, this stunning period home occupies a South-facing plot approaching half an acre, with planning permission granted for extension and outbuildings.

1 The White House is a delightful period residence, constructed originally in 1875 and having been completely upgraded and improved by the current owners to offer fantastic accommodation throughout.

There are numerous highlights including the superb drawing room with excellent ceiling height and views and doors open to the rear gardens, and of course the kitchen/breakfast/family room, which has been recently upgraded to a high specification with a beautiful central island, hand painted/handmade units and built in appliances. A large orangery completes the ground floor.

There are five bedrooms across the first and second floors. The main bedroom is an excellent size with built-in dressing area and en suite bathroom and is complemented by four further bedrooms over two levels all well-proportioned and each one having been recently redecorated. The second floor has also got approval for dorma windows.

A further mention of the property must include the large cellar of approximately 1,000 square feet which is ideal for storage or could be converted to more habitable uses.

The owners have also secured approved planning for the external annexe/office/gym. Furthermore, there are two outbuildings that have been agreed to become a potential sauna/spa/indoor pool. Planing has also been approved for two rear dormer windows on the second floor.
