The Old Manor House

The Old Manor House set in 5.82 acres is a stone built period property with farm buildings set in a conservation village.

LOCATION Loddington is a small and attractive conservation ironstone village set in open countryside. The village has a range of facilities including a primary school, The Hare pub, a large sports centre and grounds for cricket, football and a playground, Village Hall and access to bridleways and footpaths.

HOUSE Set in a south facing garden off Main Street, the ironstone house dating back to the C17 has many original features. The family house is about 2,500 sq.ft. (238 sq.m). Approached from the south facing walled garden you enter the glazed porch and into the oak block floored dining room with Inglenook and oak beams. The sitting room with fireplace is well lit with dual aspect windows. Accessed from the rear garden is the adjoining home office. Steps lead to the kitchen, larder, utility and conservatory, a rear porch overlooks the main garden.
The central stair turret rises to the reading room on the landing with a large picture window overlooking the garden and fields. The three bedrooms are all south facing with two large bedrooms having well lit views over the front and back. The principal bedroom has a stone fireplace. The turret stairs rise again into the attic space previously used as a bedroom. The large space lends itself to splitting into two rooms and a further bathroom, subject to consents.
Steps from the kitchen lead to large cellar running across the length of the house with a boiler room, workshop and store rooms.
