Property description & features

  • Tenure: Freehold

Premier Houseboats are pleased to present Dragonfly, a lovely dutch barge that has been structurally well maintained, offering comfortable living with many traditional features.

Dragonfly is a beautiful looking barge, with a nice garden area at the bow on which to enjoy your surroundings. The wheelhouse offers panoramic views for navigation, and doubles as a nice size kitchen, with gas oven and hob, sink, fridge and small counter top freezer, and also has lots of storage and work surface.

Steps lead forward to the main living area. This comprises of a good sized bathroom, with corner bath and shower attachment, toilet, hand basin and heated towel rail. Next is the surprisingly spacious lounge/diner, with plenty of windows for light and airflow, built in storage and fully furnished.

Back from the wheelhouse is a large double bedroom, with further storage and a good size.

The Ford diesel engine provides plenty of cruising power, Dragonfly is very easy to cruise, and even has the original gearbox, reconditioned in 2017. She does not currently cruise as fuel lines need replacing, apart from that she is ready to use.

Externally the boat has been dry docked recently, and has been well maintained and recently painted. The garden area at the front has comfortable space for a table and chairs, and is lovely spot in which to enjoy the views.

Dragonfly is very traditional in look, has been nicely converted for modern day life, yet has held on to the traditional charm of a Dutch barge. The houseboat is freehold and the residential mooring is leasehold.
