Plans lodged with City of York Council would see the Askham Richard Water Tower, off Stock Hill Lane south of York Road, converted into a three-bedroom home.
Plans drawn up by Architectural Services York stated the conversion would see some of the original openings of the water tower reinstated to make them into bedroom windows.
It comes after the building, which is also known as the Bilbrough Water Tower, was sold at auction for £50,000 last year.
The site is also home to a York Local TV mast.
The conversion which is currently proposed has been scaled back from earlier plans lodged with the council.
