Property description & features

A contemporary and unique floating home situated on the Chichester Canal, an area of outstanding natural beauty adjoining Chichester Harbour and Marina.

Houseboat Honalee is modular in style, eco-friendly and well insulated, constructed with cedar clad Structural Insulated Panels (SIPS) and a concrete floating hull built and imported from the Netherlands. The bespoke architect design with unique features, includes bright, lofty, open plan well appointed accommodation with required planning permissions, plus underfloor heating, mechanical ventilation/heat recovery (MVHR) and insulated hull storage. Large windows overlook the canal and there are double bedroom and bathroom quarters, with a useful mezzanine area providing additional storage. There is also access to an upper deck area maximizing useful living and socialising space on board.

The owners can monitor and control a number of features remotely making this an energy efficient home, with input from solar power panels and full Fibre Broadband connectivity. Rarely available full residential mooring as the houseboat can be used all year round as the owners principal home or personal holiday home.

Situated outside is a small cedar clad summerhouse which could provide home office space/store with electricity and broadband connection available. The houseboat is conveniently located with easy access from the nearby pedestrian foot bridge over the canal.

At the time Honalee was built and installed on the canal, she had a T.V. debut starring in 'My Floating Home'. Series 1. We highly recommend arranging a viewing to fully appreciate this amazing home on water.




NOTE: The houseboat is purchased outright. The houseboat owner will be required to enter into a new yearly berthing licence agreement to moor the vessel on the canal with Premier Marinas - subject to their terms and conditions.

The 12 month berthing fee agreement is charged currently at £7,840 from 01/04/2024. A garden licence is also required currently £150 p.a.

Electricity is via metered supply from Premier Marinas and charged on a per unit basis. Drinking water and waste water is supplied and managed via the Marina facilities and is covered within the the annual berthing fee.

There is un-allocated parking in the marina areas and access to laundry and shower facilities on the marina site, if required.

Please note the canal path areas running alongside the houseboats are private areas and viewing is strictly by prebooked and accompanied appointment only - please call Baileys on[use Contact Agent Button] to arrange.

The purchase of the houseboat is a cash purchase only and we shall require proof of funding, before arranging any appointments to view.

    Broadband availability and predicted speed

    Broadband speed is measured in megabits per second, with the number returned showing how fast the connection is. Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:

    Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
    Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
    Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s

    The data is updated three times a year. The checker results are predictions and should not be regarded as guaranteed. For more information, see: https://checker.ofcom.org.uk/en-gb/about-checker#Answer_0_2

    Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength

    Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
    Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
    Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
    Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
    Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
