Warmington Manor House is a striking and impressive Grade II* listed property built of
regular coursed limestone with an ashlar façade under a tile roof. The date stone over
the entrance highlights that the manor house was built by the Elmes family in 1677 and
restored by Richard Proby, of the Proby family, in 1962.
With its stone mullioned windows, beautiful panelling, moulded cornicing and the
stunning 17th century main staircase with turned balustrade and ball finials, Warmington
Manor House offers flexible living accommodation across three floors.
On the ground floor there is a reception hall with fireplace and the main flight of stairs.

overlooking the rear courtyard with stairs leading down to a pantry.
Accessed by the rear hall is a large dual aspect spare bedroom or office. Back stairs provide access to the first floor. There is a utility room and shower room with WC and access to the courtyard, on the ground floor.
To the south wing is an intimate study with built in cupboard and views to the rear, there
is also a well-proportioned, dual aspect, drawing room with open fireplace and French
doors onto the dining terrace.
Alighting the stairs to the first floor, passing a mid-landing with views across the gardens,
to the south wing is the dual aspect Principal suite with feature fireplace, ensuite
bathroom and dressing room with its own access to the landing.
Continuing along the landing there is a double bedroom with feature porthole window

OUTSIDE
In the heart of the village, Warmington Manor House looks across Chapel Street over a
garden of mature trees. A five-bar gate provides access to a private drive with ample
off-road parking.
There is a two-storey barn and the old stable block. The layout of these outbuildings
creates a sheltered and extremely sunny east courtyard left to lawn.
Fully enclosed by a stone wall, the immediate grounds to Warmington Manor House are
accessed from the French doors of the drawing room onto a south-facing dining terrace.
The grounds are largely laid to formal lawn, surrounded by mature planting.
A cobbled and gravelled courtyard to the rear of the property, with a well as its focal
point, has access to an external store, wired for electricity, and access to the two-storey
barn. There is also a side gate to the north courtyard.
As the interior of Warmington Manor House offers plenty of potential so too do the barns
and outbuildings which would be suitable for conversion subject to planning permission.
