Are you a land lubber who likes to be near but not ON the water?
Well House Crazy has the perfect place for you!
This Mercer Island, Washington state home is actually an old 1908 passenger boat that has been hoisted on land and is now used as a home.
It is currently up for sale for $1,995,000.
It has a total of 1,390 square feet with 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. This boat/home is situated on a 0.29 acre waterfront lot.
It has a large sunny patio, with “swim steps” into the lake and a large dock.
Let’s look inside this handsome home…
WOW!
Boats are supposed to be “shes” but House Crazy Sarah is feeling a definite masculine vibe with this one.
The rich wood paneling gives the home a stately feel.
But there are some quirky features too, like the barrel sink in one of the bathrooms:
And look at the tub!
The listing photos are amazing and they really showcase the beauty of this place.
Wonderful master bedroom (or Captain’s quarters)…
The smaller bedrooms look like they might have built-in berths…
The bedrooms are on the upper level and the kitchen and dining areas are down the spiral staircase on the lower level.
The kitchen features cool retro Aga appliances and a large copper sink.
The living spaces are splendidly comfy and stylish.
The boat/home is also filled with antique nautical treasures…
The only downside to this amazing abode is that you have to go up and down some stairs to get from the parking area to the dwelling.
Still, this gorgeous lady – or handsome man – is a boat lover’s dream, and you don’t even have to get seasick!
