From
the Daily Mail:
If you dream of living on a houseboat or barge but can't imagine giving up some of your mod cons, this floating home may be the answer.
The solar-powered Water Nest 100 can be placed on any lake or river and is completely powered by solar energy.
It was developed for London-based EcoFloLife by Italian architect Giancarlo Zema and has enough space to accommodate a family of four with two bedrooms.
The largest model of the circular house measures 39 ft (12 metres) in diameter and 13 ft (4 metres) tall, with 1,076 square feet (100 square metres) of floor space plus balconies.
Other homes can be made to order in both 649 square feet (60 square metre) and 861 square feet (80 square metre) versions.

It's surrounded by water (i.e., a moat), solar powered, well lit. Unfortunately, the article doesn't discuss heating and cooling options, plumbing, etc.
