Property Description
Welcome aboard your dream home—an exquisitely renovated two-bedroom floating residence located in Washington, D.C.'s original liveaboard community, now at the epicenter of the city's vibrant Wharf district. Offered for the first time in over 27 years, this rare gem blends historical charm with modern luxury, offering a lifestyle that's equal parts peaceful retreat and urban adventure.
Set amid brand-new docks, a fully renovated marina, and a stunning clubhouse, this one-of-a-kind home provides direct waterfront living like nothing else in the city. Nearby Wharf condominiums without water views are selling for over $800,000—but here, you're not just near the water, you're on it.
Step inside and discover a fully reimagined interior where every detail has been thoughtfully updated. The light-filled space is anchored by Lifeproof Dusk Cherry luxury vinyl plank flooring and features an all-new kitchen with sleek quartz countertops, counter seating, modern cabinetry, and premium LG stainless steel appliances—including a French door refrigerator, electric range, over-range microwave, and dishwasher.
Enjoy the ease of new in-unit laundry with a full-size LG front-load washer and dryer, plus a new Rheem 47-gallon water heater for dependable comfort. The bathroom has been fully renovated with a tiled shower and glass door, a quartz-topped vanity, a contemporary mirror, and a recessed medicine cabinet for extra storage.
Both bedrooms feature updated lighting and custom closet systems, maximizing both function and relaxation. Two outdoor decks, upgraded with a stylish cable bullet railing system, provide the perfect space to unwind, entertain, or simply soak in the panoramic waterfront views.
This turnkey houseboat also includes access to the Gangplank Marina clubhouse, with 24-hour staffed front desk, showers, laundry, and a welcoming community atmosphere.
From here, you're steps from everything The Wharf has to offer—world-class dining, live performances at The Anthem and Arena Stage, sporting events at Nationals Park and Audi Field, and convenient access to the city via the nearby Waterfront Metro station.
Whether you're a professional seeking a distinctive lifestyle or a downsizer looking for low-maintenance living with character and charm, this floating paradise offers unmatched value, comfort, and adventure in the heart of the nation's capital.
Come aboard—your next chapter begins here.
Note - short-team rentals are not allowed at the Wharf!
