If you’ve ever dreamed about living on the water but don’t want to leave the sights of London behind, then you are in luck.

A unique opportunity has arisen to buy a Dutch Barge in a prime location on the river in Chelsea Harbour.

With a price tag of £220,000, the 20-metre vessel is being sold by Peach Properties and offers comfortable living quarters and the opportunity to cruise the UK and European waters.

Inside the barge boasts two cabins, two heads, and a large open-plan saloon and galley with ample storage space.

The space is open plan with a good-sized kitchen that has plenty of space for all your kitchen gadgets and more, with wooden countertops working well with a boat.

There is plenty of light throughout with windows and spotlighting creating a cosy yet bright feeling in the home.

For the size of the boat, the bathroom is a really good size, with a shower, basin and toilet and the port hole lets you have views unlike another to London.

Outside the modern deck and superstructure incorporate the classic design and lines of a Luxemotor Dutch Barge.

The real selling point of this barge is the enviable residential mooring it comes with, offering panoramic views across the river and a high level of privacy.

Although annual mooring fees are around £12,000, this cost is considered a fraction of the price of other barges in the nearby area.
