Wow! Houseboats have come a long way since I lived in Marin Co.. Back then (1980’s), the houseboat district was considered a slum for poor and alcoholic renters. Now, it’s another upscale gated community. In a way it’s nice and an improvement but the target market is clearly (once again) for the rich only. Too bad they didn’t shoot for a middleclass market and make houseboat living more affordable for the rest of us.

Looks like a serious water issue with the roof. Leaks are all over the ceiling.
This is a dream house. I love the retro feel.
