Essex Water Towers For Sale

Not to be confused with the concrete tower which is the subject of phone mast protests, the 1889 water tower(s) at Colne Road, Halsted in Essex have been on the market for some time at £599,950. Rightmove listing here

They may have been sold by now but at time of posting were still for sale. If you fancy a tower with four bedrooms, 3 baths and and another water tower as a home/SME office, (is this a BOGOF offer?) then get onto Wright & Co at Sawbridgeworth.

A one-bedroom Victorian water tower in Braintree is also on the market with Connells for around £200,000

    The smaller tower, of the Halstead pair, I believe to be circa 1864 and have it at TL 81770 30933, the larger one at TL 81749 30909.

    The tower in Braintree is one of a pair too. I believe the image shows the smaller 1880 tower at TL 75775 23185. The larger one is at TL 75769 23163.
