Mark has created a truly stunning floating home on London’s canals. Drawing on his background in construction, he designed and built this beautiful wide-beam boat himself, shaping it into a modern minimalist home that’s made for full-time living on the water.
Inside, the space feels bright and calm with clean lines, clever storage and a timeless sense of style. The full-sized kitchen and washing machine make daily life easy and practical, while the large windows sit close to the water, filling the home with light and ever-changing views of the Thames.
Mark’s home reflects his love of good design and simple living. Every element has been carefully thought through to create a space that feels both peaceful and refined. Close to the city but surrounded by nature, life on the water has brought him a sense of calm and connection that’s hard to find in London.
Personally, I've long idealised life on the water, and living on a narrow boat exploring the English canals is a long standing dream of mine. After experiencing a small slice of Marks life on his canal boat, all I can say is that I'm even further enamoured with the idea!
Step aboard this incredible self-built floating home and see how Mark has combined craftsmanship, creativity and modern design to create a beautiful life on the water.
We hope you enjoy the tour!
