A one-bedroom pad is on the market for a staggering £1,490 per month… and it’s a boat.
The barge house measures just 432 sq ft.
But it fits in everything you would expect to see in a typical house.
This includes a fairly spacious kitchen diner and open-plan living room.

The boat is moored on Albion Quay, Battersea, south London – on the River Thames.
However, it is still nearly half the price of one-bedroom properties in the area.
The average rent for one in the area is £2,640 per month, according to experts.

Although the property is parked up on the Thames, the gated entry will help tenants feel secure.
The kitchen is fitted with modern appliances including an oven and hobs.
The bedroom comes with a double bed and fitted wardrobes.

On the upper deck, there is a working wheelhouse to steer the boat.
It is being rented by River Homes and advertised on Rightmove.
The vessel comes furnished but a £2,063 deposit is required.
The description reads: “Ever fancied living on a houseboat Here’s your chance with this beautifully designed one-bedroom living space within the aft section of a Belgian Barge.
”Drenched with natural light and with all modern conveniences this is a wonderfully well-balanced home for those of you who want something other than the same old, same old.
”The accommodation comprises entrance through the working wheelhouse and down into an open-plan kitchen/ reception with ample storage and a well-appointed kitchen, a corridor containing a utility cupboard, leading to a light double bedroom and en suite shower room.
”The apartment further benefits from its own sun deck.”
