White Hart Cottages, 1

1 White Hart Cottages is the smaller of two adjoining dwellings which were probably built in the late 18th century. Historically, these semi-detached cottages had ancillary functions to the former White Hart pub, which is located immediately to the rear.

In more recent times, the cottages were used as holiday accommodation. However, following a successful planning application, residential use was granted. As such, the successors in title will be the first owner occupiers.

Despite their age and former relationship with the Grade II* listed pub, the cottages are not listed. Moreover, the layout (particularly on the ground floor) offers an appealing, open plan arrangement comprising a stylishly fitted kitchen / dining / living room.

The main stairs lead to two double bedrooms, which are served by a bathroom.

Outside, the property provides a cottage garden to the front, with a further 1.8 metre strip of land immediately beyond the existing shrub border, which is defined by timber edging. Parking for two / three cars is to the northern end of the existing car park, along with a further two spaces for visitors.

Further plans and background information for the change of use are available via Babergh & Mid Suffolk’s planning portal (www.babergh.gov.uk/planning/) under reference DC/25/01294
