Now being offered for £1,495,000 (about $1.97 million), this intriguing home underwent a modern renovation in 2015 by celebrated British firm Chris Dyson Architects, which included adding a Cor-Ten steel extension to an original stone gasworks cottage. The new design pays homage to the site's agricultural and industrial past with a two-story cylindrical tower that references the shape of a gas storage cylinder, as well as the barns that are typically found in the region.
