Description
The property stands on a large site extending to c. 1.43 acres and comprises the original period property which has been converted together with a recent purpose built extension which was completed in 2022. Prior to closure The Chimneys was a long-term 23-bedded rehabilitation service set across 2 wards providing specialist care and treatment for those suffering with mental health disorders.
LocationThe Chimneys is located in the Suffolk village of Rougham in a rural location approximately 3.5 miles from the popular market town of Bury St Edmunds and close to the main A14 trunk road. Ipswich lies approx 22 miles to the south and Cambridge is approximately 33 miles to the west.
Thurston train station lies approximately 1.2 miles to the north with routes into Ipswich and Cambridge. Bury St Edmunds train station lies circa 5.3 miles to the west and is operated by Greater Anglia offering frequent direct services to London, Cambridge, and Ipswich.
The accommodation is summarised below and detailed floorplans are also available:-
Ground floor (older building):
Reception, stores, offices, WCs, lounge, dining room, 4 bedrooms with en suite facilities, meds room, clinic, laundry, kitchenette.
Ground floor (new extension):

External DetailsThis large site benefits from extensive car parking to the front and side and there are enclosed areas of secure gardens for residents' use. (Please note the 2 cabins near the farm road will be removed together with the cabin in the central car park along with the generator.)
The OpportunityThe availability of The Chimneys presents an excellent and rare chance to acquire a part purpose built specialist care facility in an excellent setting.
Given the flexibility that the accommodation provides, it is highly likely to suit a wide range of potential purchasers, either those with experience of a similar care group to the previous occupiers or if looking to reposition to a different client group or alternative care use.
As such, we expect strong interest to be shown from a wide range of buyers both within the care sector and elsewhere
We are inviting offers on a guide price of £1,800,00 for the freehold property with vacant possession.
