This is a fantastic opportunity to acquire a fully navigable 50ft. x 17 ft. 5 Humber keel houseboat, located at the highly desirable Platts Eyot.
At deck level there is plenty of space for entertaining with an area for seating.
Towards the stern is a wheelhouse for use when navigating the vessel and opposite this is the door which leads down to the accommodation which comprises; a good size lounge with wooden flooring, skylights to allow for lots of natural light, and a log burner.
Opposite the lounge is a fitted kitchen with plenty of storage.
Towards the bow of the boat is the main bedroom suite which has fitted wardrobes and drawers with a double bed and has the benefit of an en suite shower room.
The second bedroom is a single room again with ample storage which leads through to the utility room which houses the washer and1 dryer, a store room and the engine room which also doubles up as a workshop but could become a small home office if slightly redesigned. The mooring benefits from ample parking.
A great boat in a delightful location viewing is highly recommended.
