Yes, this is another way of how to build a home. Get one of those old water towers, hire good architect and engineer and voilà. If only that would be so easy. Here's one good example of this kind of transformation.


Leigh Osborne and Graham Voce, owners of this unusual home, redesigned this old 19-th century water tower into beautiful eye-catching modern home, located in north-western London, UK. Tower is 99ft (30m) tall with lovely 360° views of London, perfect for luxury residence with rooftop terrace, 4 bedrooms, private gym and working elevator. Tower was worth £395,000 back in 2008. when it was bought.
