3 bedroom houseboat for sale
Key information
Property description & features
- Tenure: Freehold
- Wheel House
Architecture & Interior
Labor Vincit has been very well converted to create a comfortable home with three cabins – two double cabins and one single. The living area and kitchen are in one large open-plan space with plenty of room for a table to seat 8 plus seating area. The wheelhouse offers another reception area with breath-taking views of Tower Bridge and the whole of London. The deck of Labor Vincit has a large flat area which provides a wonderful space for outdoor living and eating.
There’s a lot of storage space cleverly built-in and amenities such as Miele dishwasher, washing machine and oven are in space-saving areas of the boat which allows for a good flow to the living and sleeping areas.
The barge is in excellent condition with a full-service history. She was fully serviced two years ago which means that she won’t be due for another full out of water service for around another five years.
Unique Property Company is able to put potential buyers in touch with specialist marine surveyors if needed and also provide introductions to marine mortgage specialists. Boats are not subject to Stamp Duty. She (all boats are designated with a female pronoun for historic reasons) is in full cruising order with well-maintained engines on-board meaning that she can also be transported elsewhere on the waterways or even across the Channel for a change of scene or the ultimate self-contained holiday.

Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s
The data is updated three times a year. The checker results are predictions and should not be regarded as guaranteed. For more information, see: https://checker.ofcom.org.uk/en-gb/about-checker#Answer_0_2
Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength
Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:
Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
