2 bedroom houseboat for sale

Architecture and interior

The super-structure of Dunregan House was built by professional boatbuilders on the steel hull of a traditional Thames flat-bottomed boat which was formerly used for transporting goods. Arranged on two floors and with a mighty steel roof, Dunregan House is currently set out as two independent apartments which could be combined to make one fantastic and very large single home.

The upper deck apartment is set out with a spacious light-filled living room with triple aspect and views up and down the River. This leads to two good sized double bedrooms with lots of clever storage and on to a fully functioning kitchen/dining room and then on to a good sized shower room. From the kitchen/dining room there is access to the roof terrace which offers spectacular views along the River Thames and would be a wonderful space for entertaining, growing plants and enjoying watching the sun rise and the sun set over the River Thames.

The lower deck apartment opens into a galley kitchen with lots of storage, washing machine etc. This forms one end of an immense living space lined with portholes on both sides to bring views of the River into the apartment. The living space has plenty of room for a large dining table, sofa and relaxation area and also a study/WFH area. There are two double bedrooms which lead from the living space, both of which have en-suite bathrooms. There is a stairway which leads to the upper deck.

In the neighbourhood

Dunregan House comes with an allocated off-road parking space adjacent to the mooring. Rotherhithe has become a family-friendly place to live with outstanding primary schools, lots of green spaces and cycle paths. Nearby is The Mayflower pub, the oldest put on the River Thames and now a gastro pub, The Mayflower opened in the sixteenth century and is named after the ship chartered by the pilgrims who left for

America in 1620. The renowned Brunel Museum is just around the corner – testament to the ingenuity and innovation of Isambard Kingdom Brunel who built the first tunnel under the River which was opened in 1908. Around the corner from the Museum is the headquarters of the equally innovative Sands Film which is a centre of excellence for historical costumes used in major film and TV around the world. The adjacency of Rotherhithe to The City makes this one of the best kept secrets of London.
