If you are thinking about it..... go for it! A life of freedom on your own boat is within reach.
"We have been living on our Waterspace Living Greenwich 70ft widebeam for over two years, we love it! It was a pleasure to work with the company in the design and build of our dream boat. From pictures and videos along the way, to the card and bottle of Bubbly awaiting us in the Galley on Handover day, we couldn't be happier with the customer service. If you are thinking about it..... go for it! A life of freedom on your own boat is within reach."

Selling  floating homes deserves a more personal, specialist approach. Meet the founder.

Waterspace was founded by a team who share a deep passion for waterfront living and years of experience in the property industry. Having lived and worked by the water themselves, they recognised a gap in the market for an agency dedicated solely to homes on or by the water – and set out to create something different. Waterspace was born from a love of unique living spaces and the belief that buying or selling waterside and floating homes deserves a more personal, specialist approach.

FAQs

We know that buying or selling a waterside or floating home comes with its own unique considerations. Whether you’re curious about the lifestyle, the process, or how we work, here are some of the most common questions we get asked.

How soon can I have a boat?

Some boats are in stock and can be yours immediately. Boats that are built to order take between 10-16 weeks to deliver.

Do I own the mooring?

No, you will pay an annual license fee to the mooring operator for a fixed term agreement of typically between 10-50 years, renewable on an annual basis after that. The fee includes services and facilities at the moorings such as utilities and waste disposal.

How can I learn to drive the boat?

We will give you all the training you need at handover and you can come back to us any time if you need further help. We’ll ensure you are confident with all the systems onboard and how to move your boat. The Royal Yachting Association (RYA) offers an Inland Waterway Helmsman Certificate [rya.org.uk].

Do I need special permission to leave the mooring?

It depends where you are moored and where you are going. At Hazlemere Marina, no, you can just untie your ropes and go. From Bramley Falls on the Thames you’ll need to arrange passage through the lock.

What are the running costs I should consider?

Key costs of living on a boat include licence fee, mooring fee, safety certificate (like an MOT), boat maintenance, utilities, council tax and insurance.

Can I get a mortgage for a boat?

There are specialist lenders for marine mortgages. We recommend you deal with a company that is a member of British Marine, the trade federation for the boating industry. Please talk to us if you need a mortgage and we’ll help you with this.

Do I have to pay stamp duty?

No, there is no stamp duty on residential boats.
