Luddington Manor is an attractive Grade II listed property occupying a prime position within the village. The Manor House has been listed as being of Special Architectural Historic interest and sits within a Conservation Area.
The property dates in parts from the 16th or early 17th century and has fine exposed wall and ceiling timbers dating from this period. The front of the house is Georgian with south-facing Victorian bays, which, combined with sash windows, make rooms bright and sunny. The property benefits from an extensive programme of renovation and refurbishment undertaken by the current owners in 2017/2018.
The paddock to the rear is south-facing and terraced, possibly for Medieval or Roman vineyards.
Once part of the Marquis of Hertford's Ragley Hall Estate, the property was once occupied by the Hathaway family, who farmed at Shottery, relatives of Anne Hathaway, wife of William Shakespeare.
The house has well-balanced, beautifully presented family accommodation, including fine fireplaces, tiled, flag stone and timber floors and original staircases. There are south-facing bay windows in the sitting room and dining room, as well as French doors from the reception rooms, which provide access to the gardens.
The family room located off the kitchen gives a further dimension to the accommodation and gives access to the lovely vaulted indoor swimming pool, with French doors to a delightful patio at the rear.
The kitchen/breakfast room has integrated appliances, painted units with granite tops, an island unit, and four oven electric aga with a picture window behind, enjoying views over the grounds.

Situated behind lias stone wall and wrought iron fence, with double wrought iron gates to a gravel drive. The deep front garden is lawned with yew trees, horse chestnut and a fine Cedar of Lebanon. The quaint garden folly building houses a water tank for the pumped garden irrigation system served by a well.
The front garden has roses and herbaceous, shrub and bulb borders beneath the lias stone garden wall. Roses, magnolia and wisteria adorn the front of the house.
