This compact one‑bed houseboat offers an affordable, move‑in ready waterside home close to Strood town centre and the station. Recently refurbished with modern finishes, underfloor heating, LED lighting and quality appliances, it is sold fully furnished and benefits from allocated off‑street parking and a small external deck.
The interior is bright and efficiently laid out with an open plan reception/kitchen, double bedroom and modern shower bathroom. Features such as a log burner and picturesque views towards Rochester Castle give the property character and a strong sense of place for single occupancy or a couple.
Buyers should note material constraints: the living space is very compact with low ceilings in places, and the property sits on a tidal estuary with a high flooding risk. Broadband speeds are very slow and the local area records very high crime levels. Tenure details are unclear and the unit is listed as shared ownership — legal verification is essential before proceeding.
This boat will suit someone after an affordable, lifestyle‑led riverside base or an investor targeting a niche market. It’s chain free and requires little immediate work internally thanks to recent refurbishment, though the waterfront setting and small footprint limit broad market appeal.
