A Tower Reborn A Home with a Heartbeat. Some homes are bricks and mortar. Others have soul.
This is something else entirely.
Set proudly within the historic grounds of St George s Parkway, the former site of St George s Hospital, this remarkable Victorian water tower rises from the landscape like something out of a novel. A building once designed for pure utility built to hold water, not warmth now holds memories, magic, and meaning. This is your chance to own a piece of Stafford s past and shape its future.
Grade II listed, and steeped in local heritage, the tower was never meant to be a home. But in the hands of its current custodians, it became one. Purchased six years ago, unloved and unused, it was a sleeping giant. Silent. Forgotten. Waiting.
Restoring a building like this isn t for the faint hearted. It takes vision. Grit. Patience. And a deep respect for the past. The owners removed industrial steel tanks from the upper levels, repaired and repointed the stonework, painstakingly revived the original features with bags and bags of lime mortar, and laid down Staffordshire blue to echo the authenticity beneath your feet. Crittall style door and the beautiful original windows now frame views across Stafford, letting light flood through exposed brickwork and grand internal spaces.
Today, the tower stands not just as a home, but as a testament to passion and purpose. Six floors of history including the breathtaking tank room offer a layout that s as versatile as it is unique. Soaring ceilings, echoing halls, and the quiet hum of a space that has finally found its voice.
And while so much of the hard work has been done, the final brushstrokes are still yours to make. The plans to complete the home with the same level of care and craftsmanship are available or perhaps your imagination will take it in an entirely new direction. It s not just a home. It s a canvas. A stage. A story waiting to be written.
Outside, there s space to breathe. A large private garden invites you to sit beneath the tower s shadow and soak in the stillness. And with private parking included, practicality hasn t been forgotten.
This building has stood through wars, watched generations grow, and seen Stafford change and evolve around it. Now, it s ready for its next chapter. It s next storyteller.
This isn t just about buying a property. This is about becoming part of something rare. Real. Remarkable.
The tower has told many stories in its time. Now it s ready to tell yours.
NOTE This is an ongoing project in the process of its conversion to be a family home, so some elements might not be suitable for small children when viewing, so please bear that in mind.
