Overview

The next-generation ARKHAUS Villa 50 represents a decisive evolution in recreational overwater living.

Now redesigned by Pininfarina and built by Lyman Morse, this 51-foot solar-electric elevated catamaran combines architectural authorship, yacht-grade craftsmanship, and transformational waterfront lifestyle flexibility.

Carrying forward the heritage of the internationally recognized Arkup 75 -- famously featured on Netflix and in global media -- the new Villa 50 refines the concept into a more agile, modern, and recreationally focused platform.

This is not a houseboat. It is a design-driven floating residence built to true yacht standards.

New production slots are currently available beginning early 2027, with estimated delivery in late 2027.

Design & Pedigree

The Villa 50 has been completely reimagined by Pininfarina, the legendary Italian design house known worldwide for sculpting some of the most iconic automotive and architectural forms of the modern era. Their work introduces cleaner proportions, sharper exterior geometry, elevated material palettes, and a refined interior experience that feels more like a contemporary waterfront penthouse than a traditional yacht.

Construction is entrusted to Lyman Morse, widely regarded as America's premier boatbuilder. With decades of experience producing custom yachts and superyacht-level builds, Lyman Morse brings precision engineering, meticulous joinery, and uncompromising marine construction standards to the Villa 50 platform.

This collaboration elevates the Villa 50 into a category of its own -- architecturally authored and yacht-grade executed.

Dimensions & Living Space

• LOA: 51'
• Beam: 18' (terraces retracted) or 30' (terraces extended)
• Lower Interior Deck: 656 sq ft
• Rooftop Deck: 656 sq ft
• Deck Space: 900+ sq ft
• Total Usable Area: Over 2,000 sq ft

When the lateral terraces extend, the beam expands dramatically, transforming the vessel into a wide, stable waterfront platform. The sense of scale is remarkable -- offering over 2,000 square feet of total usable living area within a 51-foot footprint.

The rooftop deck serves as an elevated lounge environment ideal for sunset dining, entertaining, or private retreat.

Recreational Layout Options

The next-generation Villa 51 is offered in multiple recreational configurations:

• Studio Layout
  An open, loft-style waterfront living space ideal for weekend retreats or minimalist luxury living.
• 1 Bedroom / 1 Bathroom
  A private master suite with full bathroom and shower, complemented by open-plan salon and galley.
• 2 Bedroom / 2 Bathroom
  A fully residential configuration providing dual suites, each with private bath -- ideal for families or guests.

All layouts emphasize natural light, panoramic glazing, indoor-outdoor continuity, and premium materials curated under Pininfarina's direction.

Solar-Electric Propulsion & Engineering

The Villa 51 is powered by an advanced solar-electric system designed for quiet, efficient cruising and low operational impact.

• 12kW bifacial solar array
• ~126kWh lithium-ion battery capacity
• Dual 50kW electric thrusters
• Cruising speed approximately 6 knots
• Top speed approximately 8 knots
• Shore power and generator integration

The signature hydraulic elevation system allows the vessel to lift fully out of the water, delivering exceptional stability while reducing hull exposure and long-term maintenance demands. Once elevated, the onboard experience feels remarkably solid -- more residence than vessel.

Experience & Lifestyle

The Villa 51 is designed for:

• Private waterfront living
• Weekend coastal retreats
• Yacht club or marina-based residency
• Long-term Intracoastal positioning
• Seasonal relocation between markets

The combination of mobility, architectural scale, and overwater presence creates a unique ownership experience that blends the freedom of yachting with the comfort of a luxury residence.
