A truly unique living space
The Tank House is set to be an outstanding dwelling that is genuinely one of a kind. With three stories and a roof top terrace, this development stands in an area of outstanding natural beauty with unbroken 360-degree views of stunning Lincolnshire countryside.
One-of-a-kind
Planning permissions of this kind are rarely granted and recognise that this is a building of genuine architectural interest and innovation. The copper-clad wood frame sits on top of an old water tank that previously served Tealby village. The reassuringly sturdy concrete vault is now home to a generous bedroom and ensuite with breath-taking views across the Wolds. The frame is up. The fittings are being installed this Spring/Summer.
Let nature surround you
Enter the building into a generous dining kitchen and you’ll be knocked out by the views. Floor one is also home to the guest bedroom, wc and store. Go up again and you’ve got a lounge that is spacious enough to incorporate a study with country-side views on all four sides. Proceed to the roof and you’ll enjoy a viewing terrace, sundeck and hot-tub sundowner spot that will leave you beyond words.
Designed to reflect the environment
Every aspect of the architectural design has been created in sympathy with this profoundly unspoiled location. With the exception of a couple of farm buildings there isn’t another dwelling in sight and the views stretch for miles. The copper cladding emulates the furrows of rich earth in a ploughed field – but the views surrounding the Tank House change season by season – creating a story all of their own. The vast picture windows let light in, but every care has been taken in design to ensure that the building itself has a modest footprint and impact that leaves the environment in-tact.
A nod to Tealby past
Architects also took inspiration from notable ‘fortification’ type buildings that form part of the rich heritage of the area. The Tank House stands as a tower – but with every thought to comfort and enjoyment of its inhabitants. Beautiful luxe fittings, textured finishes and spaces designed for tranquility and connection to nature. Interested?
