Thought to date from the early 17th century, the house is constructed of ironstone and sandstone with some ‘banding’ and possesses attractive detailing including stone mullion windows, stone ball roof finials and a lovely vertical sundial on the porch elevation. The Manor House is described in Pevsner’s Book of Northamptonshire as "a most attractive house, set behind a series of enclosing walls with rusticated gate piers".

Character features throughout include window seats and working shutters throughout.

The kitchen/breakfast room includes a central island, bespoke cabinetry, and high-end appliances including electric four-door Aga with companion oven and hob. The ground floor also offers a sitting room with open fireplace, dining room with high ceiling and fireplace, and a drawing room with panelling, open fireplace and an arched alcove. There are cellar rooms below.

The first floor includes a principal bedroom suite, two further bedrooms, a study/bedroom with bookshelves, and a family bathroom. A fourth bedroom with en suite is accessed via secondary stairs. The second floor features a large family/TV area, two additional double bedrooms, and a shower room.

The gardens at Plumpton Manor lie principally to the south of the property. They are surrounded by a two-metre stone capped wall and are principally laid to lawn interspersed with flower borders, feature hedging and avenue tree planting. There is a special attraction to the front wall, two stone pillars, with giant stone balls on top and double cast iron gates. Adjacent to the house is a wide entertaining terrace. There are a few other ‘sun trap’ eating terraces dotted around the garden.

To the west side of the courtyard, overlooking the tennis court, is a fun games / ‘viewing’ room which includes a shower room and has catering facilities. Bifold doors slide open to a paved terrace.

There is a heated swimming pool with an electric operated secure cover. Hidden by further hedging is a raised bed vegetable area and a mature orchard with a fruit cage to the rear.

Adjacent but hidden from the main house, are a wide range of former stone and steel frame farm buildings with separate access under archway and from the rear to the country lane. A single storey barn comprising two garages, potting and lawnmower rooms. At the centre of the former concrete farmyard are three stone stables with a tack room and a covered open-bay cattle feed area to the rear. Opposite is a steel frame covered area. To the north is a large, vaulted stone barn with barn door and adjoining former cattle barns. Perpendicular to these buildings is a further stone barn former dairy. Over the archway, another two-storey barn with planning permission to convert into a three-bedroom ancillary accommodation. (S/2019/1382/FUL). Behind the main barn is a large 8 Bay steel framed agricultural building.

To the west and east are four stockproof paddocks ideal for someone with equestrian interests. In one paddock is a lovely bull rush pond.
