A UK resident, Rob Hunt has transformed a concrete water tower into a spectacular £1million four-bedroom mansion in two years.
Hunt spent two-and-a-half years on the incredible conversion of the 80-year-old derelict concrete tank into an eye-catching property at Clovelly Cross in Bideford, Devon.
In one of the UK’s most ambitious home renovation projects Rob transformed the abandoned concrete water tower into a million pound luxury home.
Purchased late in 2019 the redundant 1940s water tower was turned into a luxurious four-bedroom family home with large windows and underfloor heating to keep the property warm and comfortable all year round.
He said: “I haven’t done anything like this before.
“I used to have a couple of rentals and done the odd house renovation but all pretty standard stuff.
“I found the water tower scrolling through Zoopla.
“I always wanted to do something different – it was just pot luck it was within 20 miles of me and with the scope to do something really special with.”
Living on his own on site in a second-hand caravan Rob spent weeks alone cutting through 10 inch thick reinforced concrete before bringing in a builder friend to help.
He is planning to sell the property next summer.
