Characterful Houseboat - Tantalus

Premier Houseboats are pleased to present Tantalus, a characterful conversion of an ex coal barge, that has been fitted to create a good sized family home with both a traditional and contemporary feel. Tantalus has been converted to create good living space internally and also has two good sized outside areas. Tantalus has had great thought put into her conversion, and has an incredible amount of storage throughout. Entering through the front door there is an office area immediately to your left, that enables you to look down over the main living area. A small set of steps lead down to the main living area, which is a superb size with a large settee and a multi fuel stove, together with plenty of light, and even a giant clock on the ceiling. A step leads up to a sectioned off dining area. Along the corridor is a family bathroom with new toilet, hand basin, double shower cubicle and a small room with radiator for drying clothes. Next is the first bedroom, currently with two built in beds but would easily be a comfortable double. Next along is the kitchen, with plenty of storage and work surface, built in double oven, gas hob and extractor, fridge freezer, washing machine and a breakfast bar. Along from this is the main bedroom, with built in double bed with storage below, and built in wardrobes. A door leads to outside where there is a small deck area, with steps leading to a larger decked terrace on the roof of the boat, offering commanding views and furnished with table and chairs. There is excellent headroom throughout the boat, which also has solid wood flooring, and all windows are double glazed units. There is also full gas central heating run from a gas combi boiler in the kitchen. The swim ends either end of the boat provide even more storage if required. The roof has a slight slope allowing any rain water to run easily off the boat and into the river. Tantalus is ready to move into and is a lovely family home, with superb room both internally and externally, and a good balance of classic and contemporary fittings.

Stunning Lightship for Conversion - Lightship

Premier Houseboats are pleased to present a recently out of service lightship, an amazing vessel in superb condition offering a huge amount of space for conversion internally, together with fantastic useable external space. This lightship really is in incredible condition. There is a massive amount of useable space to create an extremely spacious and characterful family home, over three levels, with excellent headroom throughout. The opportunity to convert such an iconic vessel to a luxury floating home does not come along too often, with lightships becoming rarer as technology moves forward, and so this chance to create such a home on a lightship in such good condition, on a secure residential mooring, represents great value for money as well as an outstanding opportunity. Steel hulled lightships are traditionally extremely well built, the steelwork both internally and externally appears to be in excellent condition. This is an amazing opportunity, and the true scale of the lightship and its potential as a home must be viewed to be appreciated, as photographs alone cannot do it justice.

Lighter for Conversion

Premier Houseboats are pleased to this Thames lighter barge on a secure residential mooring in Kent, ready to convert and create the houseboat of your dreams. Finding an empty barge ready to convert on a residential mooring is a rare opportunity and therefore must be seen to be appreciated. The barge is of a size that could create a good sized family home of three double bedrooms, at least one large bathroom and possibly an en-suite, and a large open plan kitchen/lounge on the upper level. This is an excellent and rare opportunity to create your own home afloat.
