About this property
Premier Houseboats are delighted to present bp-3, one of the iconic bp tugs, now available on a secure residential mooring and offering exceptional potential for conversion into a spacious and characterful floating home.
Originally a working vessel, bp-3 was retired from commercial service due to electrical issues that were uneconomical to repair for operational use. This provides a rare opportunity to create a large-scale conversion project, transforming a piece of maritime history into a unique and impressive houseboat.
Accommodation is arranged over three levels, offering remarkable space and flexibility for redesign.
The wheelhouse could become a stunning saloon or lounge area, providing panoramic views across the water.
Below, there is a galley/mess area, shower room, toilet, and three separate cabins, all ready for renovation or reconfiguration.
Should you choose to remove the engine and machinery, the resulting internal volume would provide a vast, open-plan living area - ideal for creating a truly distinctive home afloat.
Externally, bp-3 benefits from a wide beam (30 feet), offering outstanding deck space - perfect for outdoor seating, entertaining, or enjoying life on the water.
Structurally impressive, this vessel provides a solid base for a creative conversion, whether you envision an industrial-chic home or a stylish modern residence.
Situated in a popular and well-connected village, amenities are just a short walk away, including a general store, restaurant/diner, and bus terminus with links to neighbouring areas.
The community also offers:
Schools for all ages
Doctors, dentist, chemist, shops, restaurants, and takeaways
Swimming pool and leisure centre
For commuters, the A2/M2 provides quick access to London or the Kent coast, while Strood station offers high-speed rail links to London in around 40 minutes. The nearby River Medway also offers sailing facilities and scenic countryside walks.
Bp-3 represents an exciting opportunity to design and build a one-of-a-kind floating home, combining maritime heritage with modern living. With its exceptional dimensions and solid structure, this vessel offers huge potential for anyone seeking a creative residential project or spacious liveaboard.
The tug is freehold and the residential mooring is leasehold.
