Location
The property is located on the edge of the village of Wrentham. The village benefits from a shop, public houses and a Black Dog Deli. There is also a village hall and sporting facilities. The property is just off the A12 with excellent links to Lowerstoft and Great Yarmouth to the North and Ipswich and London to the South. The Suffolk Coast and Heaths AONB, and seaside resort of Southwold is just a few minutes drive from the village with its thriving high street, numerous pubs and restaurants and its famous sandy beach and traditional seaside pier. The town of Beccles is within nine miles. The property is a little over two miles to the beautiful coastline at Covehithe, where the ruins of the once glorious medieval St Andrews Church can be seen. The surrounding countryside of the Suffolk Heritage Coast is designated an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and includes such attractions as the nearby Dunwich Forest, Minsmere Birds Reserve, as well as Henham Park and the Benacre and Covehithe Broads.
Description
Pyes Hall is a handsome Grade II Listed farmhouse believed to date from the 16th Century, of timber framed construction with brick elevations under a tiled roof. It is anticipated that a buyer will wish to carry out a full refurbishment programme.
The hall sits beside a collection of brick and timber framed Suffolk barns, which are deemed to be curtilage listed and one of which is individually Grade II Listed. It is anticipated that, subject to the normal consents, the barns could be converted to a full residential or holiday let use.
The hall and additional range of barns have separate driveways. The hall’s drive leads to a parking area adjacent to which are a range of garages and stores, one of which is of brick construction under a tiled roof, the other of timber under a thatched roof. A door to the side of the hall leads to a hallway, off which is the cellar, kitchen, boiler room and the first of three reception rooms. Off the boiler room is a spacious utility and store room. There are three particularly spacious reception rooms as well as a study, pantry and cloakroom. On the first floor are seven bedrooms along with three bathrooms. There are two sets of stairs leading up to the attic rooms. These are ideal for storage but would have in the past be used as additional staff bedrooms.
The house is surrounded by gardens which are predominantly laid to grass and contain mature trees. In all, the grounds extend to 2 acres. The range of barns, which are accessed via a separate drive upon which the property has a right of way, are made up of a number of buildings. There is a most impressive thatched timber framed Suffolk barn which linked to a attractive range of red brick buildings by more modern agricultural units. In addition is a further thatched timber barn and a detached brick and timber red brick barn under a tiled roof.
Viewing Strictly by appointment with the agent. Not all of the property is safe and in particular, it should be noted there is a pit in the thatched barn. Those viewing should take great care.

These Particulars do not constitute a contract or part of a contract. All measurements quoted are approximate. The Fixtures, Fittings & Appliances have not been tested and therefore no guarantee can be given that they are in working order. Photographs are reproduced for general information and it cannot be inferred that any item shown is included. No guarantee can be given that any planning permission or listed building consent or building regulations have been applied for or approved.

2. The Money Laundering, Terrorist Financing and Transfer of Funds (Information on the Payer) Regulations 2017 require all Estate Agents to obtain sellers’ and buyers’ identity.
3. In the unlikely situation of our client considering an offer prior to auction, a premium price would have to be put forward and the purchaser would be required to sign the contract and put down a 10% deposit and pay the Buyers Administration Charge, well in advance of the auction date. An offer will not be considered unless a potential buyer has read the legal pack and is in a position to immediately sign the contract. The seller is under no obligation to accept such an offer. It should be noted that Clarke and Simpson cannot keep all interested parties updated and at times will be instructed to accept an offer and exchange contracts without going back to any other parties first.
4. Additional fees: Buyers Administration Charge - £900 including VAT (see Buying Guide). Disbursements - please see the Legal Pack for any disbursements listed that may become payable by the purchaser upon completion.
5. The guide price is an indication of the sellers minimum expectations. This is not necessarily the figure that the property will sell for and may change at any time prior to the auction. The property will be offered subject to a reserve (a figure below which the auctioneer cannot sell the property during the auction) which we will expect to be set within the guide range of no more than 10% above a single figure guide. January 2025
* Generally speaking Guide Prices are provided as an indication of each seller's minimum expectation, i.e. 'The Reserve'. They are not necessarily figures which a property will sell for and may change at any time prior to the auction. Virtually every property will be offered subject to a Reserve (a figure below which the Auctioneer cannot sell the property during the auction) which we expect will be set within the Guide Range or no more than 10% above a single figure Guide.

By setting a proxy bid, the system will automatically bid on your behalf to maintain your position as the highest bidder, up to your proxy bid amount. If you are outbid, you will be notified via email so you can opt to increase your bid if you so choose.
If two of more users place identical bids, the bid that was placed first takes precedence, and this includes proxy bids.
Another bidder placed an automatic proxy bid greater or equal to the bid you have just placed. You will need to bid again to stand a chance of winning.
