Bills & council tax included - stylish flat aboard houseboat central & sought after location Available to let on a short or long-term basis from 1st September 2026 is a spacious 2 bedroom maisonette aboard this beautiful and unique house boat.
The St Michael is a converted 1970s North Sea Trawler. She is docked along the south side of the river Thames in Nine Elms, directly between Vauxhall Bridge and the Battersea Power Station.
The midships flat is one of three living spaces aboard the boat , with a floorspace of 80m².
We charge the utility bills, council tax and WiFi as a mandatory fixed amount included in the rent, estimated at about £400, so the rent without those bills equates to about £3200.
Just to give an idea of the pricing. It is not added as fee, we simply include it in the rent.
The reason for this is that the whole boat has one meter for each utility, but the costs have to be split across the three flats. So no need to worry about billing, which is an added bonus!
Available to view during August 14th-16th and 27th-28th, sorry not available outside of those times due to guests. Currently available to view throughout September.

Moored in a dock, that in the 18th century was the outlet from a millpond, the St Michael is part of a small thriving river community that was once common in London.
A wealth of cultural amenities are almost on your doorstep from galleries to street markets, with restaurants, bars, parks and transport links all within easy reach.
The St Michael started life as a North Sea fishing trawler and now enjoys a quiet and scenic mooring at this excellent location on the Thames, next to the Riverlight Towers surrounded by numerous amenities and a leafy landscaped plaza.
There is also a rocky beach which stretches beyond Vauxhall station and is accessible by ladder next to the entrance.
She has been converted into multiple flats and boasts a large rooftop garden which can be accessed by tenants.
We are looking for tenants keen to live aboard a quiet but centrally situated unique liveaboard, to enjoy the flat for a short to long-term let.
The Midships flat has been running as a holiday let, so it comes fully furnished and has recently been renovated. Some furniture can be stored away if you are bringing your own furniture.
