Are you looking for a change of lifestyle? To get away from the hustle and bustle? Dreaming of tranquillity? Then look no further!

Perhaps the most interesting and unique listing we have ever taken to market – Claudia is more than just a house boat! It is a converted coastal cargo ship that boasts eight bedrooms, three bathrooms and over 5500sqft! With luxurious and spacious accommodation throughout and incredible views all round, this fabulous house boat could be exactly what you are looking for! Entertaining guests is a breeze with open plan reception space which would be ideal for diner parties or simply relaxing and taking in the views. There is also a second reception room on the middle floor, which is used as a home studio for Pilates/holistic retreat and features a LED dance floor & hot tub, perfect for chilling out after a long day! Upstairs you have a further open plan reception area, great for working from home and making this an ideal property for those with large families who would like their own space, leading off this room is yet another room that the sellers have dubbed the ‘beach hut’ which opens onto the decked area, perfect for those warm summer nights! The triple aspect master bedroom is bright and spacious with lovely views. On the lower floor there are seven bedrooms, two bathrooms and a spacious storage area that could be used as a workshop for those who fancy a bit of DIY! To the front of the ship there is yet another spacious storage area that potentially lends itself to being converted into a separate dwelling – ideal for those with older children or in fact relatives that would like to be nearby. In terms of location, Hoo Marina is just a short drive from the centre of the village with an array of shops, eateries and schools, further down the road you have access to the A228 leading to the A2 so ideal for commuters as well, with trains nearby at Strood with high speed to St Pancras and Rochester fast to London Bridge.

This vessel was dry docked in Aug 2022 for a full out of water survey, undertaken by commercial surveyor, with new anodes and hull painting undertaken.

    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
