The detail

This fabulous floating home offers truly unique accommodation in the city of Paris. From the moment you climb aboard, you’ll be wowed by light and spacious rooms, luxurious décor and outstanding river views. Located in a peaceful suburb, with the city centre only a 15-minute Metro ride away, you’ve got the best of both worlds to guarantee an unforgettable Parisian adventure.

Viewed from the riverbank, this contemporary, two-storey house boat, designed by a renowned architect, is an eye-catching sight. Inside, its huge windows make the most of the spectacular river views and its charming portholes add a nautical touch.

The impressive living room is double-height to create a wonderfully dramatic space. Floor to ceiling windows flood the room with light and bring the outside in. In this welcoming haven, you’ll find a trio of comfortable sofas, stylish pendant lights and an array of interesting artefacts.

The contemporary kitchen is kitted out with all the mod cons you could possibly need, including a large oven, dishwasher, freezer, microwave and coffee machine. And while you whip up a feast, you’ll be treated to views of the water and a lush, green backdrop through the perfectly placed window.

For indoor eating there’s an eye-catching quartz dining table, with room for eight, where you can enjoy a meal with a view. Or for more informal dining, take a seat in one of the raw wood chairs at the slate-grey breakfast bar.

The three spacious, luxurious bedrooms, one with a king size bed and two with doubles, are all ensuite and offer charming, boho touches, such as bespoke bedframes made from reclaimed wood and stone-hewn sinks. Each one opens out onto a balcony or deck with outdoor furniture, where you can enjoy your morning coffee, gazing out over the Seine.

Outdoors on the main deck, you’ll find a large table with wicker chairs for alfresco dining, and soft sofas and loungers for relaxing in the sun. This is also a great spot for an evening sundowner as you watch the sunset over the water.

This spectacular property also comes with a couple of unexpected extras. There’s a mezzanine office area, overlooking the living room, with a desk and computer for remote working, and a well-equipped home gym if you fancy a workout.

Float Away With Me is moored in a peaceful Parisian suburb. The surrounding Neuilly-sur-Seine neighbourhood is known for its arty vibe, pretty parks and elegant cafes and bistros. From here the vibrant city centre, with its famous landmarks and attractions, is a leisurely 45-minute walk, or 15-minute Metro ride, away.
