This comprises two large double bedrooms, both with a large amount of fitted storage
The family bathroom has toilet, bath with shower attachment and hand basin.

The entire lower deck has been well fitted out, and kept in excellent order.
The engine room houses boiler, washer and dryer, and freezer
The engine is still in situ but not connected
It has not been used for many years, but could be brought back to working order if you are of a mind to do so
Zodiac benefits from upvc double glazing and diesel fired central heating throughout.
Zodiac was originally a passenger ferry on the Thames until 1999 when she ceased service
She has a robust carvel built hull from pine, and upper strakes of Elm om Oak frames.
Zodiac offers great space, wonderful character, and can continue to be a lovely family home.
The price of Zodiac has been reduced considerably as the hull is now in need of some attention and she will need to be dry docked to be properly checked
She is still an incredible opportunity but is going to need some work, both externally and internally on the lower level,so as well as the drop in price the owners will consider sensible offers.
