A 1930s water reservoir which was transformed into a stunning home has gone on the market for more than £3 million.

Listed by The Modern Home estate agents, The Reservoir in Harrietsham was converted by international designers Brinkworth in 2009 and is certainly a contender for Kent’s quirkiest home.

The five-bedroom property, on the market for £3.25million is set within six acres of land and has four bathrooms.

The home was originally designed for the artist Dinos Chapman and knitwear designer Tiphaine de Lussy, with the estate agent saying it “exemplifies brutalist principles throughout its massive, concrete-columned framework”.

The couple having separated, the property has popped up on the market a few times and has gone up in price by £800,000 in less than 10 years.

Dinos Chapman, a Turner Prize nominee, is best known for causing controversy with his work alongside his brother Jake, including works using original watercolours by Adolf Hitler.

In its brochure, The Modern Home said: “Expansive internal spaces, harmonious material marriages and panoramic views towards the North Downs are just some of the sublime interventions that testify to the home’s brilliance.

“With the exception of a glazed pavilion, which makes up the entire first floor, internal accommodation takes a rare, lateral form.

“The property provides a significant income from use as a location for television, film and fashion shoots.”

The open-plan living room, kitchen and dining area spans about 50ft at the rear of the property and opens up onto a garden terrace with an outdoor kitchen.

There is also an outdoor shower area and an enclosed 25-metre swimming pool. The property also has a studio which is currently used as a gym and workshop.

Within the first-floor glazed pavilion is an open-space room with an office, library and a sunken living space.

Kent has a number of similarly quirky homes which have been similarly repurposed or built from scratch.

In 2006, furniture restorer Denise Del Tufo and her husband Bruno, a special needs teacher, transformed a water tower at the bottom of their Rolvenden garden, in to a glass-clad home on stilts with views across the countryside.

The couple only uncovered the site having first bought a Victorian cottage on the land and had it suggested to them they research the water tower at the end of their garden.

Barges, underground houses, homes for gnomes and a property so eco-friendly the government paid the owners every year are also some of the top picks in recent years.
