The opportunity
Peyton Hall Farm Barns were built in the late 1800s and are now available to purchase with planning permission and Listed Building consent to create an impressive family home.
Once converted, the consented designs allow for a property that will measure approximately 3000 square feet with virtually all the accommodation on one level and with galleried ceilings above much of the living space.
The living space will include a master bedroom with a dressing room and en-suite bathroom, three further bedrooms (one with an en-suite shower room), a family bathroom, a vast living/dining space around a central fireplace, a kitchen/breakfast room, a utility, a WC and a galleried studio room.
The grounds
The new dwelling will be sat in 1.44 acres of private grounds with an easterly outlook across the Dedham Vale aonb and over the course of the River Box. The property shares its location with two other residential homes, Peyton Hall Farm and Peyton Hall, a notable Grade II Listed home, however the outlook from the barn and from its grounds is very much away from its neighbours.
Within the 1.44 acres of grounds there is ample room for a large lawn, and the consented plans show designs for landscaping adjacent to the house, including patios on three elevations.
As the site plan shows, there are various outbuildings within the grounds beyond those with consent for conversion. One of these is required to be demolished as a condition of the planning permission, however there a number of other buildings, some of which offer the potential for conversion into work-from-home offices, annexes or games barns (stp).
Access & location
The barns will benefit from two rights of way; the first being a 1.1-kilometre made-up drive leading to Wash Lane (and Stone Street) and the second being a 1.0-kilometre track leading to the B1068 towards Stoke-by-Nayland Golf Club and village.
Ipswich is a 30-minute drive from the property, with Colchester North (mainline) Train Station being a 25-minute drive in the other direction. The historic villages of Stoke-by-Nayland and Boxford are both around two miles away, providing shops, restaurants, pubs, churches, and active communities.

Points to note
Planning documentation including detailed drawings are available on request or can be looked up on Babergh District Council’s planning portal using the planning number B/08/01239/ful/gd. Note that Babergh District Council have agreed that a meaningful commencement has been made to the build, with pre-commencement requirements having been satisfied, including payment of the Section 106 contribution.
The above-mentioned rights of way, which will be issued by our clients, will be limited to one dwelling only, meaning any further outbuildings which are converted (stp) must be for ancillary use only.
Two existing pylon routes travel within 350 meters of the property (at their nearest point). One of these pylons is due to be undergrounded in the proposed upgrade to the Bramford to Twinstead pylon route.
A planning condition states that the Dutch Barn which sits on the southern boundary must be demolished before occupation.
Areas of the ground on the eastern elevation are currently designated as agricultural land rather than as garden.
The property has an existing mains electric supply, and our clients will allow the creation of a new water connection. The dwelling will require a private sewerage treatment system. Offcom states that broadband speeds in the area will run at just 9 Mbps (upload) meaning buyers may need to investigate alternative connection methods such as Starlink. Offcom states that mobile phone reception on all networks is good.
Peyton Hall will retain a right of way along the access lane on the southern boundary (marked with a black arrow on the plan).
Buyers will take on the ownership of three cattle grids within the grounds and will be required to maintain existing stock-proof boundaries.
