The property boasts excellent green credentials with a biomass boiler and PV panels, while the kitchen, bathrooms and orangery benefit from underfloor heating systems.
In keeping with the standard of the house, the gardens and grounds of Whiteheath Grange have equally been the subject of much consideration and devotion.
