Description

Spacious living on the water, the Waterhouse is a unique floating home.

Originally built as a model home (constructed in accordance with building regulations), since 2012 the Waterhouse has been used as a permanent residence with a guest house.

Beautifully finished, featuring among others a spiral staircase and good insulation.

Plenty of natural light thanks to the many windows. The evening sun can be enjoyed on one of the balconies.

The property is delivered fully furnished and fitted.
