Facing Giverny and moored in Vernon, this 287 m² Freycinet barge, built in 1951, embodies a rare art of living, combining river tranquility and contemporary refinement.

Less than an hour from Paris, this unique property is nestled in an exceptional natural setting along the Seine, yet within easy reach of the city center.

A true floating home, this vessel invites you to a unique lifestyle, focused on nature, the horizon, and space, without sacrificing comfort or elegance.

The interior layout offers a combination of generous volumes on two levels, a fluid layout, and exceptional brightness, a rare find. Each room benefits from openings onto the river, offering panoramas that change with the seasons and the light.

On the first level, a spacious entrance opens onto a vast reception area, leading to an office space on one side, and then to a large living room on the other, extending into a dining room opening onto a contemplative terrace. The kitchen, designed by Snaidero, combines aesthetics and functionality. Its cast iron Focus fireplace emphasizes its warm and modern feel. A 1.30 m wide continuous passageway, totaling 85 m², allows for unobstructed movement and a 360-degree view of the surrounding landscape.

On the lower level, an intimate living room unfolds into two spaces, one dedicated to relaxation and the other to sports. On one side, two bedrooms and a bathroom comprise the children’s space. On the other side, the master bedroom offers a bedroom with a view, a dressing room, and a comfortable bathroom with a bathtub, walk-in shower, and toilet.

A 55 m² apartment with a separate entrance completes the property: a living room, an Italian-style kitchen, a bathroom, a separate toilet, and two bedrooms on the lower level. This annex offers particularly interesting rental potential, as it’s unusual, or an ideal space to accommodate family or friends in complete independence.

Exteriorly, the barge’s lines blend into the river landscape with understated elegance. The access gangway provides discreet yet effective security. The floating pontoon allows for the mooring of boats or rowboats, surrounded by chickens and rabbits.

The hull, completely rebuilt in 2020, demonstrates rigorous maintenance, while the hydrothermal heating system (Hot River) embodies an ecological and innovative approach. The custom-designed flat roof also allows for the creation of additional terraces on the upper level.

Living here means choosing a free, peaceful, and open life, surrounded by sky, water, and vegetation. It also means choosing an unusual and poetic home, where every detail has been carefully designed to combine aesthetics, comfort, and respect for the environment. A confidential and unique address for lovers of unusual spaces seeking a truly remote location within easy reach.

Paris is 50 minutes away by car or train, the Normandy coast is 1 hour 15 minutes away, and Giverny is just a few minutes away by boat!
