Soak in the homey vibe of a 2-bedroom houseboat with the most original fireplace

If you were to tell someone living in London that they could find their dream dwelling, right in the heart of the city, for £300,000, they would probably look at you dumbfounded with disbelief.
In the pursuit of the ideal home for his family, Alex Prindiville has achieved what most would have deemed to be impossible.

According to local media reports, Prindiville, who is the CEO of his own luxury car company, commissioned a team of boat-builders to create his dream waterfront apartment.
Not much later, in April 2016, the entrepreneur launched Prindiville Marine to enable other Londoners to reap the benefits of a floating abode.
Want to experience a bit of the lavish seaside lifestyle? Then join us for a tour of Prindiville's incredible home.
A 60-by-12-foot (18.29-by-3.66-meter) Sheffield Keel hull awaits adventurous apartment hunters. So far, Prindiville Marine has built and sold four boats like this one and the company aims to complete another 15 by the end of the year.
The kitchen is the first thing you'll see when you enter this stylish and modern fleet.
Granite countertops and appliance upgrades are part of the company's custom options for the kitchen.
Head straight through to get to the living room. Solid wood floors, a skylight, an array of windows and white painted walls really make the interiors gleam with elegance.
For those cold, gloomy days, a log-burner fireplace is ready to keep you cozy and snug.
The houseboat comes with full electrical installation and central heating too. So lie back in that spacious couch and enjoy the soothing melody of the outside waters.
Alternatively, you can make yourself at home in the master bedroom. A widescreen TV awaits and there's even a desk if you feel like catching up on a bit of work.
Or you can opt to settle into bedroom number two. This one is more compact, but seems to be quite generous when it comes to storage.
Here are some of the shelves in the second bedroom, just waiting to be filled with your belongings.
Right at the very end of the Prindiville floating manor, we find the bathroom. If your mooring allows it, running hot and cold water will be installed without any issues.
The bathroom comes with a double shower, toilet and sink. Water is supplied into the boat through a tank, conveniently hidden away at the vessel's front area.

If London apartment prices are dampening your mood, Prindiville Marine may hold the answer. For those who have the money to splurge on the nautical ambition, a luxurious houseboat like this one will effortlessly meet all expectations.
