Description
The White Cottage is situated in the picturesque hilltop village of Dallington. This charming Grade II Listed cottage has recently been renovated and improved and now offers comfortable and charming accommodation over just two floors, with a pretty courtyard garden and a parking space.
The elevations are brick with some tile hanging, beneath a tiled roof. Electric central heating
The main features of the property include:
• Whilst there is a small entrance hall at the front of the house, the current occupiers approach the house from the rear, via the courtyard garden, where doors open into the rear porch. A very useful room, with space for coats, boots and general garden storage. Door to the cloakroom, with WC and wash basin.
• A part glazed panelled door leads from the porch to the kitchen/breakfast room, an excellent room recently completely refurbished and offering a good range of painted wooden kitchen units with coordinating wooden worktops, incorporating a double porcelain sink with mixer taps. There is a recently installed electric Aga with three ovens and two hotplates, AEG integrated dishwasher. Breakfast bar with views over the courtyard and countryside beyond. To one end of the room is a larder cupboard and to the other a useful, working utility area with butler style sink with mixer taps, plumbing for a washing machine and a cupboard housing the electric boiler. Quarry tiled flooring throughout this whole area.
• One step leads up to the dining room with a sash window to the front, with views of St Giles Church opposite. Built-in shelves to one side of the fireplace (currently sealed) with bressummer beam and part panelling to one wall.
• This room leads to the front entrance hall (not currently in use), which in turn leads to the sitting room with a large brick Inglenook fireplace with bressummer beam above and a fitted log burner sitting on a tile and brick hearth (which permission has been granted to lower). Two built-in storage cupboards and sash window with similar views of the church.
• Stairs lead to the first floor landing, with hatch access to loft storage space. A useful and spacious area, with space for a study/sitting area, which offers lovely views over the courtyard and countryside beyond.
• A panelled timber door leads to the spacious family bathroom, where there is a free-standing bath with mixer taps and shower attachment, separate tiled and glazed shower cubicle, wash basin in attractive pine vanity unit and WC. Painted wooden floorboards and lovely countryside views.
• Bedroom 1 is a generous double room with built-in wardrobe cupboard and window overlooking the church opposite. Bedroom 2 is of similar proportions, also with a built-in wardrobe cupboard and exposed beams to the ceiling.

To the front of the house is a small but pretty, mainly paved front garden, with some shrubs and flowering plants.
