HouseboatLevallois-Perret (92) Price : $882,200 ($4,201 / m²)
Peacefully moored along the calm banks of the Seine, FRANCINE is a Freycinet-type barge built in 1931 by the Van Garsse shipyard in Belgium. Now decommissioned, it offers nearly 210 m² of raw volumes—a promise of space to be reinvented at the heart of a serene urban landscape.
Raw Character, a Structure to Sublimate
The steel hull, faithful to the industrial elegance of its era, houses a series of bare rooms bathed in light through portholes and skylights. The upper deck includes several open terraces, a canopy, a wooden superstructure of about 27 m², and a boatman's cabin, itself topped by a small belvedere.
Every element evokes another time and invites the projection of a new purpose—studio, artist’s residence, contemporary retreat, or hybrid space.
A Signed Project, an Approved Vision
A complete renovation project, imagined by an architect-designer and validated by a naval expert, is included in the sale.
Approved by Voies Navigables de France, the project has been studied, costed, and designed with respect for the site, to bring forth a new life on the water. This vision proposes a harmonious transformation, increasing the living space to 237 m².

The Spirit of the Place
FRANCINE is not just a boat. It is a fragment of history, a dormant structure awaiting the right vision to be reborn. At the crossroads of two worlds—between concrete and the murmur of the water—it offers a rare, poetic space, ready to host a different life: free and grounded.
