Description
St Martin's Manor is an early 19th-century former rectory, now a private house, located in Looe, Cornwall. The building may incorporate earlier fabric. Originally constructed with stucco, this has been removed to reveal local rubble, indicating an extension. Rendered surrounds frame the windows, and a dry slate hipped roof features deep eaves and a low-pitched gable over the entrance front. A rendered stack rises from the front gable.
The house is planned on a 3-room deep layout with a garden front on the left and a central cross passage leading to a central stair hall on the right. The symmetrical 3-window entrance front presents two storeys. The original hornless sash windows retain glazing bars; blind glazed windows are located to the left of the doorway above a wide tripartite window. A wide 20th-century fixed light with glazing bars is situated on the ground floor to the right, with a 12-pane sash window above. The central doorway has a pair of original glazed doors with margin panes, sheltered by an unfluted distyle Doric porch with a hipped slate roof. The symmetrical garden front features 12-pane sashes over tripartite sashes, and a central doorway with a pair of glazed doors.
The interior is reportedly altered in the 20th century, although it is said to retain the original staircase.
