The house was built in the 16th Century and the current owners family purchased the hall in 1913 and it has been enjoyed as a family house ever since. This is the first time it has been brought to the market in 108 years. The estate can be accessed from Stutton via a long drive which leads to the grand turning area encompassed by beautiful rose beds and wild flowers. The front door leads into the reception hall off which there is a formal dining room, study and large dual aspect drawing room. There is also the large kitchen with an informal seating area around the fireplace and access to the gardens. The house is currently subdivided and there is a further kitchen, sitting room/dining room, utility room and WC which could be used as an annexe or incorporated back into the main house. Upstairs is a large en-suite bedroom with dressing room, a further large bedroom suite with dressing room and three bedrooms and two bathrooms. On the second floor are two bedrooms.

The gardens at Crepping Hall offer a wonderful setting for family living and entertaining. The charming house is positioned with spectacular south facing views over the lawn, fields below and the river. There are immaculate herbaceous borders, wildflowers and a traditional English country vegetable garden with greenhouse and potting shed. At the bottom of the garden is an enchanting pond and parcel of woodland. The back door leads onto a courtyard where there is a brick store room which houses the oil tank and a potting shed. There is a twin garage, game larder and workshop with storage space above. This connects to a brickbuilt barn with two stables and potential for further storage/ stabling. Adjacent to the house are two large barns which are believed to date back to the 16th Century. The barns have significant potential for conversion, subject to planning permission and listed building consent.


Set in a peaceful and picturesque location, Crepping Hall is an attractive Grade II listed Georgian house in a desirable and commutable location. Part of the larger Stutton Estate, Crepping Hall enjoys beautiful views across the south facing gardens towards the farmland and the River Stour beyond. Located on the Shotley Peninsula, the village of Stutton is home to a community shop, primary school, village hall and local amenities. Close to the village lies Alton Water reservoir, a popular destination for watersports, fishing and long walks around the 400 acre park. Shotley Peninsula has an abundance of wildlife and wetland habitats. A coastal footpath runs from the Orwell Bridge around the peninsul showcasing the Stour mudflats, wetlands and estuaries which are designated a Special Protection Area and Site of
Special Scientific Interest, set in the Suffolk Coast
and Heaths AONB.

There are numerous good schools in the area in both the public and private sector. Notably, the Royal Hospital School (RHS) which is an independent day and boarding school with naval traditions and only a short 5 minute drive from
Crepping Hall. Other private schools in the area include Orwell Park, Ipswich High School, Woodbridge School and Ipswich School.

With a river either side and the sea in front, Shotley Peninsula is a boater's paradise. Sailing clubs can be found in Manningtree and Shotley as well as Alton Water Reservoir nearby. Shotley Peninsula's flat, tranquil landscape makes it an idyllic place for various other recreational activities along the Stour including bird watching, river trips and walking along the coastal path and marshes.

The Butt & Oyster Inn at Pin Mill, Jimmy's Farm, Suffolk Food Hall, Milsoms Dedham, Red Lion Chelmondiston, Le Talbooth and The Crown in Stoke-by-Nayland.
