Hi gents, A posssssssible new owner on a house boat here. Pandemic has hit my sentiments hard and now i just want to go ahead with what i am dreaming about and yolo a bit. Gonna stay in one for awhile and eventually make a bed and breakfast? So i am looking at this https://www.funda.nl/en/koop/amsterdam/huis-87692915-keizersgracht-22-k/ Stunning location but the barge is a bit old. The seller even gave a insurance for 1 time check so i suspect it might be worth to investigate if i simply get a new barge built to save any future headaches. I am also interested in something more of a contemporary design (the insides) I spoke to a few shipyards/architects and i know that i must keep to current barge design. And i am quoted about 800 euros per sqm approximately. Is this the market rate? Also i would love any advice what to look out for, or any experts that you can recommend around the Amsterdam area. Thanks guys! Great site!
