The details

This former Pump Station gained recognition on George Clarke's Remarkable Renovations, featured on Channel 4.

Its rugged concrete walls, once stark and knobbly, now exude an air of sophistication, thanks to the opulent furnishings in a soft stone grey hue and an abundance of warm wood accents. The house is outfitted with top-tier amenities, including underfloor heating, a cutting-edge cooker, a sleek dishwasher and even a kettle that's a work of art, as described in the Red Magazine July 2018 Edition.

Originally constructed during World War 2 as a pumping station for fuel delivery to France in support of the D-Day landings, Pump Station has undergone a breathtaking transformation into a contemporary and extraordinary holiday home.

The property features a spacious open-plan living area, complete with a state-of-the-art kitchen, a generous dining table and comfortable seating arranged around a cosy log fire.
