HOUSEBOAT SERVICES

HOUSEBOAT BUYING GUIDE

London’s houseboats and floating homes offer great lifestyle benefits: not least the rare opportunity to live peacefully in nature in the middle of the capital.

Moorings can be found in some of London’s most desirable postcodes, yet houseboats and barges can often be obtained at a fraction of the cost of comparably sized houses and flats.

Living on a houseboat allows you to connect directly with the natural environment, sharing an ever-changing landscape with a host of wildlife even while the city buzzes around you. You’ll find a true oasis of calm amid the urban bustle – with all the space, freedom and relaxation that city-dwellers crave.

The strong communities forged on moorings through this unique shared experience are also often the envy of those still living in bricks and mortar.

Overseen by our Director Nigel Day, RiverHomes has become the dominant player in the market – to the extent that we now sell virtually every ‘floating home with mooring’ offered for sale in London. We have sold in every major mooring community on the Thames – and our expertise is routinely sought by local councils, public corporations and developers alike.

We offer London’s most comprehensive range of houseboats, floating homes and moorings to buy or rent: be it on the river, canal, quay, marina or wharf.

All our houseboats are sold or rented with an accompanying mooring.

HOUSEBOAT FINANCE

The vast majority of houseboats, floating homes and moorings we sell are to cash buyers.  That said, there are Marine Finance options available.  If this route applies to you, we recommend investigating your options first before arranging viewings.
