Mike Thomas bought 9 meter (30ft) concrete Latchingdon Water Tower that was falling apart in 2013 for £197,000. It is located 24 km (15 miles) from Chelmsford and boasts stunning views over the Crouch estuary in Essex. It took the new owner 2 years to transform the industrial structure that was built in the 1930s to luxury three bedroom home with an indoor gym. He spent nearly £250,000 on renovation. The two-year project saw the tower completely refurbished and it is now habitable for the first time since it was last used nearly 30 years ago.

Built by Leigh Osborne and Graham Voce, this beautiful house is designed within an old water tower in north-west London. The building dates back to 1877 and is 30 meters tall. The architects bought it in 2008 for £ 395,000.

Belgian design studio Bham turned this decommissioned water tower that soars about 30 m (98 ft.) above the flat countryside near Brussels into a living house. Now the building with a total area of 400 sq. m (4300 sq. ft.) is a six-level two-bedroom private residence with modern furniture, sleek kitchen, and garage for two cars.

Some people are really into being unique, which includes going as far as transforming a water tower into their own house. At least they won’t ever be thirsty and are safe from any potential floods.
