luxury houseboat for sale Essonne, France

Moored on the banks of the Seine, a few minutes' walk from the Juvisy-sur-Orge train station, this Freycinet-type barge offers a unique living environment, nestled between nature and town, just 15 minutes from Paris by RER train. Built in 1928, this 39-meter-long and 5-meter-wide vessel offers approximately 130 square meters of living space, divided into several warm and functional areas. The main living space is centered around a spacious lounge that flows into an open-plan, fully fitted and equipped kitchen. The woodwork, portholes, and skylights lend the space an authentic atmosphere, characteristic of river living. The sleeping quarters include three bedrooms, two of which are comfortable cabins, and one converted from the former wheelhouse. A bathroom, a shower room, two toilets, and several additional spaces suitable for offices, a workshop, or a dressing room complete the accommodation. Designed for everyday comfort, the barge features air conditioning, fiber optic internet, and a heating system that combines electric and wood-burning stoves and a fireplace. Outside, a terrace extends the living space and invites you to enjoy sunny days at the river's pace, in a verdant setting just outside the capital. The boat has all its documents up to date: Certificate of Floating Establishment, registration with the land registry, and valid COT (Certificate of Professional Competence). A dry-dock survey is required upon purchase. The cost of this survey is not included in the sale price.
