Words from the Owner -
"If you think you understand London, then I urge you to think again! Unless you have experienced this magical City, through the eyes and ears of The River Thames, I'm not sure you will ever understand the true spirit of London.
My 7 years onboard Wanderland have been utterly life changing in ways I never ever expected.
Living on the water is not like living by the water, you become part of nature, not separated from it.
Wanderland is no ordinary boat. It's an architectural sculpture on the water. It was lovingly created to form a connection to the natural world and being on board, you feel like you are part of the rhythm and dance of the river as it changes and flows with the tides.
It's like experiencing a constant kaleidoscope of light plays and shadow dances which change minute by minute, from the reflections off the water.
Being on Wanderland feels safe, intimate, nurturing, comforting and always intoxicating. At night, when London falls silent on the river, it's like being gently rocked in the womb.
Wanderland is a place for dreamers, for creators, for those with an artistic mind. Inside it's an oasis created to stimulate contemplation and meditation. Outside, you feel the energy of the City, the power of the water and the changing seasons, through the language of the river animals, the ducks, the swans, the geese and the occasional seal.
It's hard to imagine leaving this place because Wanderland and the river, forever captures a piece of your heart that will stay with you forever"
The magnificent Wanderland currently has an enviable private and secure position at the end of the wharf at Imperial Wharf. Wonderfully convenient for all the shops, coffee shops, bars, restaurants and supermarkets lining The Boulevard, this position also puts the owner close to the neighbouring Train Station and Chelsea Harbour's Uber Boat by Thames Clipper serving 24 piers across the Capital.
Chelsea Harbour Design Centre and Lots Road bring together a roster of some of the most well regarded design companies in London, including Ralph Lauren Home amongst an array of other lighting, wallpaper, furniture and interior specialists. Alongside all this, the 5-star luxury Chelsea Harbour Hotel and Spa provides an overspill accommodation option for the owner wishing to have guests living close by.
If, however, the new owner decides they would prefer to motor to a different location then the beauty of the houseboat flexibility of location can be realised.
