About this property
Premier Houseboats are pleased to present Sule Skerry, a distinctive ex-ferry vessel offering excellent potential to be transformed into a spacious and characterful floating family home.
Already featuring some charming and unusual design elements, this two-level project provides a superb blank canvas for imaginative buyers to create an affordable and stylish home on the water.
Spread over two levels, Sule Skerry offers impressive headroom throughout and ample scope to design a comfortable, open, and airy home.
Lower level: Space to create two double bedrooms and a family bathroom
Upper level: Ideal for an open-plan kitchen and living area with abundant natural light from the porthole windows
Central spiral staircase: A beautiful existing feature that connects both levels and adds charm and character
The upper deck area is especially bright and open, offering a blank canvas ready for creative interior design - whether you envision a contemporary loft-style living space or a more traditional nautical feel.
Sule Skerry represents a rare and affordable opportunity to create a bespoke houseboat with genuine family living potential. Her unique shape and layout make her stand out visually, and with the right vision and work, she could become a stunning and comfortable full-time home.
The vessel’s size and proportions lend themselves well to a practical and stylish conversion, making this an ideal project for those looking to combine creativity with value.
Situated on a secure residential mooring in Kent, this popular village location offers everything needed for convenient and comfortable living:
Local general store and restaurant/diner within walking distance
Bus terminus with connections to neighbouring areas
Schools for all ages, doctors, dentist, chemist, shops, restaurants, and takeaways nearby
Swimming pool and leisure centre in the village
A2/M2 access within 10 minutes for travel to London or the coast
Strood train station with high-speed services to London (~40 minutes)
Riverside walks and sailing facilities close to the River Medway.
Sule Skerry is a unique and spacious ex-ferry, offering outstanding potential for conversion into a comfortable and distinctive floating home. With solid steel construction, generous proportions, and existing features such as the spiral staircase, she provides the perfect foundation for a creative and rewarding houseboat project.
The houseboat is freehold and the residential mooring is leasehold.
