Modern Houseboat on the River Thames Lists for £1.75 Million

The home has access to amenities in a neighboring luxury development

A modern houseboat moored on the River Thames that comes with a suite of hotel-like amenities has hit the market asking £1.75 million (US$2.25 million).

The floating three-bedroom residence, which was listed earlier this month, is docked off a gated pier where the Thames runs through the London suburb of Wandsworth. It also has access to a range of perks housed at the neighboring Riverside Quarter development, where there’s a mail room, pool, on-call concierge, steam and sauna rooms and several gyms, said Guy Bradshaw, head of London residential at United Kingdom Sotheby’s International Realty, which is listing the home.

The houseboat features the kinds of lavish finishes associated with a new home in prime London. Light, warm materials make the interiors feel spacious, including heated limestone floors, oak-paneled walls and floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking the water.

An eat-in kitchen spans half the lower level and opens onto a terrace for easy al-fresco dining.
