Location: Chelsea
Guide Price: £1m
Agent: Harrods Estates, 020 7225 6506, harrodsestates.com.
From the Forties until recently, this was a ferry which carried passengers across a lake in Switzerland. Now it is for sale with a 21st-century price tag. There is a mahogany deck and a communal area, which can take 60 people. There is only one formal bedroom, yet the vessel could be modified to have three if the new owner feels all at sea without them.
Houseboats - Cambridge
