Does anyone remember the name of this book???

Question

Can anyone help me name this book about a girl who lived in an orphanage and she was curious about what was on the other side of the wall that was in the back yard, so she climbed over the wall and found an abandoned house with a seashell fireplace and she cleaned it up or something like that. My daughter would like to remember the name so she can get the book again. I have searched all over the internet and nothing comes up. Any help?
