The Chimney House is a unique and contemporary property
offering exceptional living space, a luxurious finish, and a
remarkable piece of local history. Built on the former site of St Paul's Hospital, this striking detached family home uniquely retains the hospital's original twenty metre chimney, an architectural feature renowned in the area that adds charm and character. It is one of very few detached freehold properties with direct access to Orams Arbour and the only one from Alison Way. Over the years, the current owners have meticulously improved the interior finish, modernising the property to an exceptional standard. Arranged over four floors, the house seamlessly blends the generous proportions and ceiling heights reminiscent of a period home with the comfort and efficiency of contemporary design. Engineered wood flooring, bespoke window shutters, and integrated wiring for a sound system create a beautifully finished interior.

The ground floor boasts a superb open-plan layout, ideal for both family life and entertaining. It features a relaxed family area, a dining room with roof lights and fitted storage, and a sleek Bulthaup kitchen/sitting room centred around a striking central island with a range of high-spec integrated appliances. A welcoming entrance hall doubles as a second study, providing a versatile space for home working or the practicalities of modern family life.

The first floor boasts a formal reception room that opens on to a private balcony overlooking Orams Arbour. An elegant principal suite features a discreetly concealed en suite bathroom behind a bespoke wardrobe. The second floor comprises a guest suite, along with three well-proportioned bedrooms and a stylish family bathroom. A sixth bedroom on the third floor offers flexibility for additional accommodation or a generous and light-filled workspace.

Outside, a wall of sliding glass doors seamlessly connects the
interior to a paved terrace and garden. The garden, expertly landscaped with mature planting and specimen trees, provides privacy. In the summer months, the outdoor area offers a great space to dine al fresco, and the property's central location and no through private road provides an unexpected sense of tranquillity. Uniquely, there are steps to an upper terrace and a private gate to access the wonderful open green park of Orams Arbour. The front garden features a sun terrace surrounded by a variety of interesting shrubs and flowering plants that contribute to an attractive approach to the main entrance. The property benefits from two private parking spaces, adding to its convenience, as well as visitor spaces.
