A small deck joins the cabin to the land, which has a lovely entertaining area and provides some additional outdoor living space for the family, as well as their BnB guests. It’s also the ideal launching pad for kayaks and a small row boat to enjoy some extra time on the water.
The construction is mostly similar to a cabin which would be constructed on land, but does have some boat features such as a bilge pump which transfers the grey water from the home onto a dispersion field on the land which helps to irrigate crops. There’s a solar set-up which powers the home allowing it to be completely off the grid.
Inside, the home is absolutely charming, with a lovely dining area, functional kitchen, bathroom and lounge area. Upstairs is a full sleeping loft. When inside the home, it would be hard to believe it was actually a boat, where it not for the soothing rocking caused by the soft movement of the water below.

A fold-down ladder is cleverly situated up high to keep it out of the way during the day, but provide simple access to the sleeping loft when required. The loft is spacious with a queen-sized bed and a glimpse of the water.
