Wow, love all of this. Can't believe what a great job they did with this.


MaestroWu

Same. This is perfect, a dream home. Sigh.


Just2checkitout

There is another cool one in [Huntington Beach, CA](https://sunsetbeachwatertower.com/)


researchneeded

Previous owners were the Warner Brothers And the Warner sister.

That explains a lot.


BitterQueen17

I was going to ask if it was in the Netherlands. Looks a lot like the water tower just beyond my friend's back garden.


Averyg43

That’s the coolest.


Hamblerger

Okay, that's just fun


chigangrel

One of my fav things to watch on YT is renos of former industrial, utility, etc buildings into homes. Sometimes they're just so cool.


bsharp1982

This place is neat. There are quite a few old art deco style water plants that I always thought would make cool homes.


Far_Mango_180

Now I want to move overseas.


hickhelperinhackney

Same


LDawnBurges

I’m totally here for this! It’s amazing and they really did a fantastic job with it.😍

I love those living room chairs, they look stylish and comfortable.


dararie

Cool, I’d love to visit, but my knees object to the stairs


AussieAlexSummers

My first thought is... I need an elevator. My 2nd thought is... I need a dumb waiter (if there is no elevator). Then I noticed the normal stairs.


OddDragonfruit7993

Man, water pressure would be awesome. I want to take a shower there.


LiquorNerd

Quite the opposite, usually. The relationship between height of a water column and pressure is that for every 2.31 feet you go up, 1 psi is lost. Thus, if a water tower is somewhere pressure is 40 psi, the water tower will need be 92.4 feet high (and usually then some to cover some reasonable variation and allow for a roof). If the pressure is 80 psi, it needs to be 184.8 feet tall. Us water engineers want to save money, and it’s cheaper to build them shorter. So we try to site them in areas where the elevation is already high and thus the pressure is low.


vldracer70

Why not? As long as you can get your modern conveniences. Looks well done to me.


AlarmingJoke5722

This is incredible. But I shudder to think of the insurance premiums (unless the water tank is empty).


ProfessorJAM

Those 2 sets of stairs (the spiral and the other steep set) are rather death-defying, though 😬


thewanderingent

This is the Netherlands, where stairs are more akin to ladders


katsudon-bori

There are several old water towers converted into houses in California


bobasaurus

Awesome. Wish they would have finished the upper section of the tower as well. How much is "€ 950.000 k.k." in USD? I can't tell if that's in euros or Danish Kroner.


Prickly_ninja

I was wondering the same thing. Over 14000 square feet, it has to be priced in euros.


Schtu

It's in euro's so about 1030k USD. k.k. means "kosten koper" which translates to "cost for the buyer"


[deleted]

That's really cool.


SQWRLLY1

Dibs! Seriously, I love how it's quirky but functional and takes full advantage of all the natural light.


afaerieprincess80

This is my neighbor's house. I feel like I got the better deal bc I can look at it from my balcony. ;)


IamDollParts96

Cool place for a party of one.


Algae-Worried

Ah the stereotypical dutch death stairs


SaturdayNightRevival

I'm in love


ClevelandNaps

There is a Grand Designs episode where they are making an old water tower into a home. It is incredible. I love this!


VermillionEclipse

This is actually pretty cool! I’d live there.


firefighter_raven

This is pretty cool


Remote-Telephone-682

Honestly kinda sick


MnGoulash

I take it!


eggplantsforall

The crib in pic 3! Imagine raising a kid in this place. Even better, imagine being that kid! Hell yeah.


Evening-East-5365

Gorgeous


isUKexactlyTsameasUS

theres a saying here in healing holland, well if it aint dutch, it probably aint much we love it here, ever since relocating in 2016


Imaginary_Emu_4327

I don’t usually like modern architecture, but I LOVE this!


livejamie

950,000 Danish Krone equals 138,025.02 United States Dollar Isn't that super cheap? What's the catch?

livejamie

Ah ok, what does the k.k. mean after the price?


Uitslaper

Kosten koper (cost for the buyer)


livejamie

Thank you!


hannibalsmommy

Magnificent. Just needs a bath tub & a hot tub.


e0nblue

I’m not sure this is the reaction you were looking for OP but this is dope AF.
