The White House is a stunningly simple white weatherboarded oasis, set directly behind the dunes. The gate at the bottom of the garden allows quick access to the miles of sandy beach. So you’re safe in the knowledge that you don’t even have to cross the street…
On first entering this unassuming bungalow, you are instantly transported into a calm, beautiful home. With the feel of the beach and the soft tones of white and grey which permeate the weathered timber building, allowing an instant release from the moment you enter. Kicking off your shoes the house opens up onto an open plan living space, where double French doors and windows line the exterior of the property. Allowing streams of light to penetrate the rear.
The living space and dining room flow into a well equipped kitchen with a large Bertazzoni cooker/gas hob, fridge/freezer, dishwasher, and washer/dryer all behind rustic handmade kitchen doors. Sympathetically screened by sliding doors to the rear of the kitchen finds another cosy sitting room with a large smart TV, leather chairs and comfy sofa in a relaxed vintage vibe.
For those autumnal and wintery days the log burner allows you to enjoy the warmth of the cooler days , whilst enjoying the large open aspect this house exudes. The whole property allows for great flexibility for larger families – sliding doors, shutter doors and French doors ensure that if you want the little nooks to escape into or if you want to party you can throw open the areas to bring everyone together.
The bathroom features a roll top bath, loo and basin with antique tin panels adorning the walls. The second bathroom has a shower, loo and basin.
