Broker's Comments

Register with Boatshed to see 39 extra photos of this Houseboat 29m (former Freighter)

Embankment Road, Bembridge is (in my opinion) one of the most fantastic houseboat locations in the UK, and this beautiful boat is in a prime position. She's on a safe, sheltered, spacious berth with stunning views across the harbour and the Solent towards Portsmouth, within walking distance of a beautiful village, parking and good transport links elsewhere.

The berth is on a long lease with low ground rent and, unusually, fully residential and letting use is permitted. There is plenty of space around, not just on the water but a pretty garden too.

Once a working vessel carrying cargo, this former freighter has been fully refitted to the highest standard by a vastly experienced shipwright. This was completely documented and photographed and shows the extent of work that took place. She's now a stunning four cabin (all ensuite) houseboat with 3 decks and provides an opportunity for the most idyllic waterfront lifestyle imaginable.

These boat details are subject to contract.
Note: Offers on the asking price may be considered.
