Chester House, Grade II listed building in Paddington, City of Westminster, London, England.

Chester House is a three-storey residential building with an attic at Clarendon Place in Paddington, featuring traditional timber elements integrated into its structure. The facade displays craft details characteristic of its era.

The building was completed in 1936 by architect Giles Gilbert Scott, replacing a medieval structure that had originally included basement rooms. It initially served as a showroom for gas appliances.

The building shows how residential structures were designed in this London neighbourhood, blending craft traditions with the practical needs of 1930s living.

The building is located in Paddington and is easily accessible via multiple transport links and walking routes in the area. The surrounding streets offer clear navigation for visitors.

The building displays upper storeys that project beyond the ones below, a medieval construction technique that was still employed in the 1930s. These overhangs remain clearly visible and reveal the long history of building traditions.
