Houseboat for Completion - River Oak

Premier Houseboats are pleased to present River Oak, a good sized one bedroom houseboat, in need of finishing, which has become available due to the owners change of circumstances. River Oak was purchased as a disused and dated houseboat, and then completely gutted. She has been insulated throughout, and completely rewired. She has also been part plumbed. She has been partitioned to create a good size double bedroom, open plan kitchen/lounge and a shower room. These partitions need boarding out. There has been a new Gas Combi Boiler fitted, and the shower, hand basin, toilet and macerator unit are boxed and on the boat ready to be fitted. The piping for radiators is also on the boat. The current owner will be fitting four new windows at the front of the boat and one at the side. There is some welding needed along the waterline, and she is currently out of the water to enable any purchaser to do this work. River Oak offers the potential to be a good sized, and very light, static houseboat, with an estimate of £15k- £20K to finish her. Her size means that ongoing costs such as mooring fees and heating will be very much affordable, but do not compromise the excellent living space ************* boat is freehold and the residential mooring is leased.

Character Houseboat - Fireflair

Premier Houseboats are pleased to present Fireflair, a beautifully decorated static houseboat, offering character, space and economical living. Fireflair was originally commissioned by the war office, and has also seen active service as a fire boat on the Thames before being tastefully converted to a houseboat. The upstairs accommodation is split into two parts. The beautifully decorated lounge has space as well as a warm homely feel, with classic wooden panelled walls giving a traditional feel to the room. The many windows allow plenty of light. Next to this the owners have created a comfortable office area which can be separated from the main saloon when needed. Glass doors lead to a fitted kitchen/dining area, with plenty of work top and storage space. Again there are plenty of windows allowing lots of natural light and giving a light and airy feel. This kitchen comes with fridge, freezer and oven, and also has a log burner and space for a dining table.. A panelled stairway from this room leads to the downstairs accommodation. A door leads through to a large double bedroom, again beautifully fitted out with wooden panelling and plenty of built in storage.

A door leads from this bedroom to another double bedroom also beautifully fitted out and with built in storage . A door leads from this room to a large storage area. A second door from the stairway leads to the family bathroom, extremely well fitted out in a U shape with the bath placed in the centre. The bathroom also has a toilet and hand basin, and a doorway leads from the bathroom to a utility room, that could also easily be a third bedroom. This area houses the washer and dryer. The boat is fully centrally heated using kerosene, and is extremely well insulated throughout, making it very economical to heat. All windows and doors are upvc double glazed units. The boat has comfortable deck space at both ends, and has been well maintained by the current owners, regularly dry docked to be painted and have anodes replaced when needed.
