Amazing Venue with Houseboat Potential - Rochester Queen

Premier Houseboats are pleased to present the Rochester Queen, an ex event venue boat, that could be put back to being a venue with a relatively small amount of updating, or converted to create an amazing houseboat. This incredible opportunity now comes on a secure residential mooring. Rochester Queen offers incredible space over three levels, the top two levels have an incredible amount of light due to the many windows, and there is also excellent headroom on all three levels. There are three bars, and an industrial kitchen capable of catering for the large gatherings The Rochester Queen was used to hosting. There is a heating system in place however a new boiler will be needed. Externally there are three outside deck areas where you can enjoy your surroundings in comfort wherever you are moored. The Rochester Queen is an impressive looking vessel. Although no longer able to cruise, as a static vessel on the right mooring she could be an excellent business opportunity. Converted to a houseboat she could be a stunning, spacious and unique property. Opportunities to purchase a historic vessel such as The Rochester Queen come up very rarely, and viewing to appreciate the space available, whether as a houseboat or as a venue, is recommended. She is on the historic ships register, below is a brief history : In 1935, a formidable competitor to Royal Lady arrived in the form of the Coronia [1], built by Warren's New Holland Shipyard on the Humber Estuary. Although of similar layout to the 1934 Royal Lady, she only had one funnel, which was positioned too far aft for symmetry. Coronia [1] was owned by Jack Ellis, and her original livery was a yacht-like white, later with a pale yellow funnel. She had a gross tonnage of 227 and an overall length of 130 ft, and carried 475 passengers on a Class 3 Certificate. Her engines were supplied by the National Gas & Oil Company of Ashton-under-Lyne, a company not normally associated with marine installations. She was capable of 13.5 knots, a lot faster than her initial competitor Royal Lady. In 1937, Coronia [1] reappeared with two funnels like her competitor. These were initially pale [yellow?] in colour, but later became red with a black top. In 1938 she had a more equal competitor in the New Royal Lady, which matched her is size and speed. However, in pre-war years there was more than enough custom for two such fine vessels.

Eben Hauzer offers an amazing amount of space both internally and externally, and unusually is moored on its own pontoon within the marina enabling it to offer a prime mooring and peaceful and quiet family living.

The good sized collapsible wheelhouse offers panoramic views for navigation or just enjoying the scenery, with steps leading down to the former crews quarters, now a cosy self contained living area. This contains a double berth, lovely saloon with log burner, kitchenette and a separate toilet that could easily be turned into a wet room. The main accommodation is a fantastic combination of size, space and character.

This area also houses the diesel boiler for the central heating. A further short stairway/ramp leads to the stunning living area. This area is both extremely spacious and very well fitted out, with the characterful feel you would expect. This area flows beautifully, and manages to feel both open plan whilst also retaining the feel of where the lounge stops and the large kitchen diner starts. The lounge area houses a beautiful multi fuel burning stove that provides an excellent focal point whilst complimenting the full central heating running throughout the boat. The kitchen/diner is another wonderful space, with plenty of work surface and storage, as well as fridge, freezer, dish washer, LPG oven and sink. The area also has plenty of space for a large dining table, and is a great family area. Forward from the kitchen a corridor leads to three bedrooms to large doubles with a great amount of storage, and a third which currently has a hand built single bed but could also easily house a double bed. To the back of the boat is the family bathroom, with toilet, hand basin, stand alone bath and a massive walk in shower area. This area also houses the washing machine. The main accommodation is well decorated throughout, with beautiful flooring and good headroom. All the natural light comes from the fitted skylights running the length of the boat, that give ample light as well as offering privacy at the same time. Externally, the usable deck space is an incredible place in which to fully appreciate and enjoy the calm and peaceful surroundings of river life. The Mercedes-Benz diesel engine provides plenty of power to cruise this exceptional cruising home, which also has a Lister 13 KVA generator for use when cruising. This is a stunning example of a well maintained, well converted Dutch barge, and whether cruising or on a mooring, she offers a fantastic life changing opportunity.

Static ex Trawler to Complete - Sula

Premier Houseboats are pleased to present Sula, a converted small trawler in need of finishing but offering a nice living area and structurally very sound. Sula has been, and still is, out of the water where the hull has been worked on and then painted, so is in excellent condition. The main structure has been fitted with all new double glazed units, the cladding has been 3/4 completed with the outstanding cladding ready to be fitted. Internally Sula has been fitted out in a mixture of contemporary and classic styles. There is a built in double berth with storage underneath, and a main living area with further storage, a small galley area, and saloon. Steps lead down to a front area currently used as storage, but with some work could become a good sized wetroom/toilet. Sula needs a form of heating and hot water provision, a cooker and a bathroom to be fully useable as a houseboat. A gas combi boiler could be fitted to provide this, with the storage space mentioned earlier ideal to create a wet room. There is a small amount of external space, and Sula's size means that ongoing costs such as mooring fees, heating etc are going to be very economical. A charming small houseboat with potential for improvement, a secure residential mooring and a very sound and well maintained hull, Sula could be a lovely home.
