Abandoned firehouse: before & after

AI-generated concept, not a real renovation. Every image on this page, before and after, was made with AI. There is no real property, no building work and no cost behind them: they are ideas to look at, nothing more.

An abandoned 1920s red brick firehouse with three arched engine bays and a hose tower, reimagined five times: from above, in the engine bay turned into a dream garage with a classic 1960s sports coupe, in the upstairs crew room where the original brass fire pole now stands in the middle of the living room, in the kitchen and in the attic bedroom under the roof trusses. Cleaned brick, black steel windows, polished oak and warm lantern light: ideas for converting an old fire station into a luxury home.

1. The firehouse from above

Before (AI concept): Aerial view of an abandoned two-storey red brick firehouse with three arched bay doors, broken upper windows, a slate roof full of holes and an ivy-covered brick hose tower, behind a cracked concrete forecourt overgrown with weeds in the middle of a forest.
Before
After (AI concept): The same firehouse from the same height at dusk, with repointed brick, a new slate roof, glazed arched doors and glowing windows, a pale stone motor court lined with lanterns, clipped lawns and hedges, a long swimming pool and a classic dark grey coupe.
After

Same building, same tower, same forest. The concept re-roofs the firehouse, glazes the three bay doors, repaves the forecourt and adds a lawn, a pool and lantern lighting.

2. The engine bay turned dream garage

Before (AI concept): The empty engine bay of an abandoned firehouse, with a cracked concrete floor and puddles, peeling brick walls, riveted steel beams under a damaged pressed-tin ceiling and three tall arched doors with broken panes letting in low evening sun.
Before
After (AI concept): The same hall as a garage, with a polished grey epoxy floor, cleaned brick, black steel beams, a restored tin ceiling, new black steel-framed glass doors, hanging lanterns, a tan leather sofa and a classic 1960s sports coupe in dark grey.
After

Same three arched doors, same steel beams, same tin ceiling. The concept pours an epoxy floor, cleans the brick, hangs lanterns and parks a classic coupe in the middle.

3. The fire pole living room

Before (AI concept): The upstairs crew room of an abandoned firehouse, with a dusty wooden floor, peeling brick walls, bare timber joists, three arched windows and a tarnished brass fire pole dropping through a round hole in the floor inside a brass railing.
Before
After (AI concept): The same room as a living room, with the brass pole and railing polished, refinished oak floorboards, clean brick, black-framed arched windows, a cream sofa and tan leather armchairs on a wool rug, a black fireplace with a fire lit and candle lanterns.
After

Same brass pole, same three arched windows, same joists. The concept polishes the pole, refinishes the floor and builds a lounge around a lit fireplace.

4. The kitchen

Before (AI concept): An empty former crew kitchen with a cracked concrete floor, bare brick walls with remains of white wall tiles, a peeling ceiling with timber beams and two arched windows with broken panes.
Before
After (AI concept): The same room as a kitchen, with dark green cabinets and brass handles, a marble-topped island with tan leather stools, a steel range cooker under a brass hood, open shelves of white dishes and copper pans, brass lanterns and a polished concrete floor.
After

Same two arched windows, same brick walls, same beams. The concept adds dark green cabinetry, a marble island, a brass hood and warm under-cabinet lighting.

5. The attic bedroom

Before (AI concept): The empty attic of an abandoned firehouse, with dusty floorboards, dark timber roof trusses, daylight showing through missing slates, rubble along the walls and an arched window in the brick gable wall.
Before
After (AI concept): The same attic as a bedroom, with white plaster between the dark rafters, hidden warm lighting along the beams, an oak floor, a king bed with white linen and a wool throw on a large rug, bedside lanterns and a tan leather armchair.
After

Same roof trusses, same arched window, same brick gable. The concept closes the roof, lights the beams and places a king bed in front of the window.

What Roomstill does, and what it does not

These concepts go further than Roomstill does: they can rebuild a roof, add glass or move a window. Roomstill starts from a photo of your own room, furnishes or restyles it, and keeps its walls, windows and doors where they are.
