stunning views across Bushy Park to the rear.
Immediate Area
The White House is just 15 miles from London’s West End but backs on to the Royal Bushy Park. The front of the house looks out over Hampton Court Green and Hampton Court Palace is a short distance away. The palace hosts an annual flower show, country fairs and music festivals among other events.
There are a wealth of restaurants, cafés and shops within walking distance from the house, some overlooking the Thames.
Heathrow Airport is 10 miles away and there is easy access to the M3 (4 miles), linking with the M24 and M4. Hampton Court station is a five minute walk, and has a half-hourly service into Waterloo (approximately 35 minutes) - with Hampton Court the terminus so that a seat is assured even in commuting hours.
The House
The White House is a Grade II listed house, originally built for the royal plumber, that formed part of the King’s Office of Works standing on the opposite side of the green. The house was re-erected in its current position by George i’s plumber, with foundations for the “new plumbery” and a cellar dug in the summer of 1700.
A well-known tenant of The White House was Mr Edward Jesse who, as a surveyor of the Royal Parks and Palaces, was responsible for the opening of the palace to the public in 1838. He was the author of “A Summer’s Day at Hampton Court”, published in 1841, for visitors to the palace.
Interior
The main front door of the house, accessed through the courtyard, brings you into the reception hall that is currently used as a snug. It has a staircase to the 1st floor, open fireplace, in-built cupboards and shelves and a window to the rear where you first get the view out to Bushy Park. There is a door, under the stairs, taking you down to the cellar and wine store.
Coming along the hall, from the reception, double doors lead into the impressive drawing room. Two sets of French windows, with window seats, fill the room with light and give access out to the park behind. Throughout the drawing room and dining room are intricate ceiling mouldings, highlighting the attention to detail. There is a further open fireplace in the centre of the back wall. Large double doors open to the dining room, allowing these two receptions to come together for entertaining.
The dining room has a further set of French windows out to the park, an open fireplace, a built-in glazed corner cupboard and a solid wood Parquet floor that continues through the drawing room.
A door leads back across the hall into the kitchen/breakfast room. The kitchen has a range of hand built, solid wood cabinetry and doors that lead out to the courtyard, with a spiral staircase taking you up to the roof terrace above for al fresco dining.
Beyond the kitchen is a hallway that gives access to the cloakroom, the internal garage and a further door out to the front.
On the first floor all the rooms are accessed from a wide landing that makes the most of the light and has doors out to the balcony and roof terrace. There are three bedrooms on the 1st floor. Two of the bedrooms are panelled with oak, one has built-in, hand-painted, wardrobes and a balcony to the rear. On this floor is the main family bathroom with both a freestanding bath and a shower cubicle. All the rooms on this floor again have the views to the park behind.
The second floor is taken up by the master suite. The bedroom is dual aspect and has great built in wardrobe space and some lovely hand-painted decorative details on the walls. A door leads through to the ensuite/dressing room with more wardrobe space and a fabulous central shower stall with brass railed surround and domed ceiling above.
There is character everywhere you look in this house with solid wood floorboards, panelled walls, decorative fireplace surrounds and much more which gives a real sense of the history.
Outside
The house is approached via a private road adjacent to Hampton Court Green. To the front of the house is a private courtyard garden, overlooked by the roof terrace. Gates lead from the road straight into the courtyard with a pathway to the front door of the house. To the left of the pathway is a stone wall relief depicting The Battle of The Amazons.
The courtyard has a Yew hedge to the front giving total privacy all year round. 4 shaped beds, with York stone pathways, surround a pond with a stone statue in the centre. From the courtyard there is a spiral staircase which takes you up to the roof terrace off the first floor.
Both the drawing room and dining room have doors straight out to Bushy Park which is great for walks, picnics, cycling and observing the herds of over 300 red and fallow deer.
