Tjalk Groninger Tjalk

Floating houseboat with transferable mooring in the heart of Rotterdam

Living on the water – Groningen Tjalk de Twee Gezusters in the center of Rotterdam

In the Heritage Ports of Rotterdam lies this robust and characterful Groningen Tjalk with a living area of approximately 80 m². A unique opportunity to live on the water, with peace and space on board and all urban amenities within walking distance.

Layout and possibilities
Access to the ship is via the atmospheric roef, equipped with windows all around and a standing height of 1.70 meters. This space offers a beautiful view over the harbor and is extremely suitable as a workspace, reading nook, or home office. The original access to the hold is still present and can easily be restored if an alternative entrance is desired.

With no less than 80 square meters of space, this floating houseboat offers everything you need to move in immediately. The generous standing height and plenty of natural light create a spacious, bright, and inviting living area.

The kitchen, bathroom, bedroom, and most of the living room have been recently renovated. One side of the living room still needs to be finished – a great opportunity to shape the space according to your own insight.

Additionally, there are several extra spaces on board – including the original skipper's aft cabin – which currently serve as storage. These offer plenty of possibilities for expansion, such as an extra sleeping area, studio, or workspace.
