The Naturecruiser is an elegant riverboat, meant for very slow but deliberate travel on rivers and lakes. It also can be docked to make a very lovely permanent dwelling as well.
Using a hybrid-electric drive, solar panels, and a smart, water-purification system, it also does its part to be as nice to the natural surroundings as possible.
Created by German firm Wohnschiff Manufaktur, the elegantly shaped home is 15-meters long, and can comfortably accommodate 2-4 people. The clean and modern interior features a ton of large glass expanses, perfect for taking in nature around you.
The company’s catalog features two additional models, including the much larger and more luxurious Watervilla. Whichever one you choose, expect to pay prices that rival the home’s on-land cousins, starting at $600,000. Via Uncrate:
“When I wake up, I look at the water.
Everything is calm and quit. The animals, boats and the shore.
When the sun rises I jump in and get out full of energy.
Better than that a day can’t start for me!
After many nights, sitting at the jetty it was clear to me, I wanted to live on the water.
The idea arose to build houseboats.”
