The Floating Solace, by Veeve
It’s not every day you see a four-bedroom houseboat that is simultaneously sleek, sunny and spacious, but then again you may not have been introduced to the Solace. Floating serenely near the south bank of the Thames in Wandsworth, sunbathe to your heart’s content on one of the three sprawling terraces or wander through the intricately laid out and decorated interior…
Walk into the cavernous living room and you might forget you’re floating – chic wood floors, a pair of plush sofas and a huge coffee table laden with treasures offer a feeling of a luxuriant high-rise apartment in the sky rather than on the water. Surrounded on two sides by floor to ceiling windows, there’s no shortage of natural light either. If you’re after even more direct sunlight, access the terrace from here – complete with a table for four overlooking the Thames.
Make your way towards the kitchen and you may find you don’t want to leave – boasting plenty of counter space and a giant island anchoring the room and an enticing red colour palette, you’ll have no trouble whipping up dinner in here. Serve up your feast on the nearby dining table, fit for a banquet with room for eight diners.
After a delicious dinner and some evening entertainment on the terrace, amble downstairs for a restful night’s sleep. The principal bedroom has its own staircase, promising solace in privacy – offering a cosy super king-sized bed, tasteful furnishings and a wall-mounted TV, it’s the perfect space to wind down. This room also boasts a spacious en-suite bathroom, complete with an elevated bath, walk-in shower, toilet and double wash basin.
Venture down the main staircase and spend some R&R in the separate TV room, where you can also access the three other king-sized bedrooms. One of these features an en-suite bathroom, while the other two have access to a well-appointed bathroom featuring a toilet, walk-in shower and wash basin.
As well as its astounding interior, this houseboat is also extremely well-connected: a short walk from East Putney tube station for easy access to Wimbledon – and best of all, hop on a river bus that sails directly to Westminster from the same pier as the houseboat!
We Love
The endless opportunities for light entertainment – whether you’re taking in views of the Thames on one of the three terraces, or enjoying a banquet at the giant dining table.
Home Truths:
