Moored at St Mary’s Wandsworth Pier, SW11, this is a remarkable custom-built houseboat that redefines riverside living. Once a 1885 Peniche Spitz barge, she has been entirely rebuilt by respected Dutch shipbuilders srf to designs by Naval Martin, one of Europe’s foremost marine architecture studios. The result is a vessel that pairs craftsmanship and innovation with a sense of ease rarely found on the water.
Spanning over 30 metres in length, Thor’s scale allows for expansive, light-filled spaces arranged with the rhythm of a contemporary home. There are three bedrooms in total, including a fully self-contained rear apartment with its own kitchen, bathroom and super-king bed. The main deck flows between a striking wheelhouse, now used as a dining room, a generous kitchen and a calm, open-plan living space, along with two ensuite bedrooms and a separate guest WC.
Every element has been designed for modern comfort: Underfloor heating, air conditioning, integrated blinds, smart speakers in every room, built-in TVs, Cat6e Wi-Fi and a retractable roof over the living area. The kitchen is fitted with premium appliances, multiple fridges and freezers and a soft water system. Below deck, the technical setup is equally considered, with dedicated utility rooms housing 2,500-litre water tanks, waste systems, a Victron inverter, power assist and diesel engine.
Outdoor living is a key part of Thor’s design, with the potential to create up to three terraces directly accessible from the main living spaces. From here, sweeping views of the Thames and the gentle activity around Wandsworth riverside unfold throughout the day.
Featured in My Floating Home (Season 2, Episode 3), Thor’s story charts her evolution from historic working barge to a piece of contemporary architecture afloat, offering a rare opportunity to own a distinctive home on the water. Council tax band F.
