Description

The White House is a late 18th-century farmhouse situated on the north side of Knapton Mundesley Road. Constructed of flint with brick dressings, it has a roof of black glazed pantiles. The building is two storeys high and comprises four bays. A door is located to the left of centre, set within a plain but prominent doorcase. Late 20th-century casement windows are set beneath gauged segmental arches. The gabled roof includes an internal gable and stacks, with a further stack on the ridge towards the right-hand side. The gable walls have been colourwashed. The building was formerly listed under Paston Civil Parish as White House Farm.
