The House in the Clouds is a water tower at Thorpeness, Suffolk, UK. It was built in 1923 [1] and was made to improve the looks of the water tower with a 30,000 gallon tank. Later in 1977 the water tower was shut down and additional living space was created. The building is around 70ft high. In 1979 the main water tank was removed to fully convert the building into a house. The building currently has 5 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, the house contains a total of 68 steps from top to bottom.
