The existing water tower is of brick construction approximately 85 feet high with a tiled pitch roof. The base of the tower is square and approximately 7 metres x 7 metres with an octagonal section at the top where the existing steel tank is located. There are no existing floors in the lower section of the building and access to the tank is via a long ladder.

Our proposals include the conversion of this building into a single residence, with the addition of two new floors within the main brick structure and a new mezzanine level within the tank room. The floors will be accessed via a single staircase which will be wrapped around a glass lift which will take you up to the kitchen/dining room level on the third floor. The top tank room has been designed as an open living/kitchen area with the living space on a mezzanine below the open vaulted pitched roof.



Work is due to start on site this year and should be completed in early 2009.
