Room available on wide beam houseboat continuous cruiser

Description

Hi,

I have a room available on a glorious wide beam continuous cruiser. The Grand Union canal and River Lee will be our main home as we glide through the water and live off the grid!

Firstly, the important stuff.

I’m looking for a serious, responsible person to rent a room on a truly special widebeam boat on a long-term basis. It offers huge floor space and a distinctive Arab/Mediterranean-inspired interior, finished with high-quality materials throughout.

Highlights
• Insulated walls and ceiling
• Clean pine board wooden flooring
• Marine plywood walls
• Double-glazed windows
• Two “Hobbit” wood-burning fireplaces
• 8 recessed ceiling speakers powered by an amplifier
• Stern covered for additional sheltered space

Living Area & Kitchen
• Shoe racks + large jacket/coat wardrobe in the living room
• Futon sofa bed
• Stylish kitchen with:
• 4 gas hobs + grill + oven
• Rustic ceramic tiles over the worktop
• Belfast sink
• Excellent cupboard/storage space (pots, pans, food, essentials)
• 240v 300Lfridge
• Eco fridge / wine rack recessed into the floor
• Big skylight on the living room

Your room
• Double bed with orthopedic mattress
• Double wardrobe
• Writing bureau + cupboard
• Plenty of storage under the bed
• Porthole window

Bathroom (between the two bedrooms)
• Stylish composting toilet
• Large corner bath (ideal for showers)
• Unique cabinet made from an ex-Scottish whisky barrel
• River rock granite sink on top
• Moroccan tiles throughout.

Power & Utilities
• Solar panels + battery system
• 12V sockets throughout
• 240V inverter
• Washing machine + water on demand
• Webasto thermo top 90 with cast iron radiators spread out the whole boat perimeter

Important: Continuous Cruiser Licence (Read Carefully)

This boat is licensed as a continuous cruiser, meaning it must be moved every 14 days across the London Grand Union Canal and surrounding areas.
This rental is only suitable for candidates who are comfortable following these rules.

⸻

Availability & Viewings
• Available from 1st April 2026
• Long-term only
• Viewings take place during April (first come, first served)

This is the chance to live off the grid and experience the beauty of London and its canal system. Experienced boaters are preferred but not necessarily but be aware this is a lifestyle choice. You will need to commute to work comfortably from different locations and be available to cruise and move the boat with me.

I can show the right person the boating life ropes. If we are going to be boat mates then it is important that we are friends too.

If you fancy living the dream then drop me a message!
