Description:

Situated within a private estate is The Water Tower, a unique three/four bedroomed detached home that dates back to the early 1900s. With a feature spiral staircase positioned within the central tower and connecting three out of the four floors, The Water Tower provides versatile living spaces, which enjoy far-reaching views across Mayfield Valley, Redmires and Rivelin. This fabulous home occupies a corner plot with a landscaped garden to the front, along with off-road parking and a detached double garage. The entrance vestibule provides the primary entrance into the home and leads to the entrance hall that showcases the feature spiral staircase, and doors link with the spacious lounge and breakfast kitchen. Set over the first and second floors are the three bedrooms, all of which are doubles and two of them benefit from en-suite shower rooms. The family bathroom has the advantage of being fully tiled in travertine and has a large freestanding bath. On the third floor, there's a versatile sitting room that could be utilised as a fourth bedroom and on the fourth floor, a quirky office that provides a wonderful vantage point of the views. The Water Tower holds an interesting historic past and dating back to the site's origins in 1905, the property formed part of the Fulwood Cottage Homes complex. This site consisted of twenty semi-detached houses, perched atop a secluded hill, and originally serving as children's homes. The Water Tower's purpose was of course to take water from the nearby conduit, but also provided workshops for carpentry and painting for the children. Within this community, you could also find sewing and knitting rooms, and an assembly hall. As the years passed, the landscape of the complex transformed. In 1960, the children's homes ceased their operations, making way for a girls' approved school, known as 'Moorside'. Currently, these structures have been thoughtfully converted into executive homes,. Still available at ListedBuy!
