Thought to be the major farmhouse for Kilmington Manor, Manor Farmhouse most likely dates back from the first half of the 19th century and is unlisted. It is built from local stone under a slate roof with a later, rendered extension behind. Manor Farmhouse has been refurbished in a thoughtful manner, that compliments the property's aesthetic with extensive oak flooring throughout the two principal reception rooms, landing and all the first floor bedrooms as well a fine oak staircase. The original farmstead comprised the farmhouse and a collection of five outbuildings and barns grouped around a central yard. These have now all been converted and collectively form an attractive community of period homes, some of them thatched, surrounded by unspoilt countryside. Manor Farmhouse has two good-sized reception rooms, one positioned on either side of the central entrance hall. Both have attractive oak flooring and large fireplaces fitted with a wood-burning stoves; an inglenook surrounded by panelling in the sitting room and a carved stone fireplace flanked by shelving and dwarf cupboards in the snug. At the rear of the house and looking out onto the rear garden are a small study, the music room and a large and characterful farmhouse kitchen/dining room crowned by French windows looking out onto the terrace and garden. The latter has exposed roof timbers beneath a vaulted ceiling and is fitted with painted timber units including a central island, slate work surfaces, butler's sink and a 4-oven AGA. The principal bedroom has an ensuite bath and shower and large windows revealing views of the surrounding countryside. This bedroom has an adjacent bedroom room, currently being used as a very large, walk-in dressing room. Two further double bedrooms and the family bathroom are also located on the first floor. The attic has been converted to form a large T-shaped, double bedroom that, due to the exposed roof timbers, would make an ideal teenage bedroom.

Its front is clad with a climbing rose and wisteria, Manor Farmhouse is set back from the entranceway into the farmstead behind a low, dressed stone wall with a central pedestrian gate and paved path leading to the front door. On either side of the path are small lawns fringed on two sides by borders stocked with flowering shrubs. Paths lead down both sides of the house to the rear garden, which is generously sized and private. Beyond the paved terrace and path immediately behind the house is a level lawn bound by mature hedging on either side and a stand of mature trees and shrubs at the far end. The garden includes a separate, fenced seating area, a pond, an array of photovoltaic panels, two log stores and a pretty garden shed. At the front and across the yard from the house is a communal garage block and two parking spaces.
