A 19th-century water tower transformed into a beautiful place of residence by its owners Leigh Osborne and Graham Voce.
The tower is part of the central London landscape

and had always been left as it was until Osborne and Voce decided to transform it this year.
The tower was not always a pretty sight, with about 2,000 dead pigeons and their droppings occupying the premises before the transformation began.
After careful planning, the old water tower is now a perfect blend of old and new, with modern and sleek interiors to match its 19th-century architecture.
There are a total of four rooms in the building in addition to a gym, a rooftop terrace and an elevator.
Giant windows not only provide a terrific 360 degree view of the city, they also let in a great deal of sunshine for the London home, giving it a fresh and warm atmosphere.
Renovations for the house took eight months to complete.
