A small cool and Dense Star.

Explanation:

White Dwarf is the last stage of a Star close to or exactly in size like our sun. Sun is at half it's age after 4.5 Billion years Sun will burn all it's hydrogen to helium and Rearrange itself into a Redgiant. In this form it'll burn Helium for the next 100 million years to Carbon and after that it'll collapse on it;s core and become a White Dwarf, a small dense, and cooler star about the size of the earth.
