Property description & features

  • Tenure: Freehold

 Premier Houseboats are pleased to present The Sovereign, originally built as a Rhine Cruiser, that has also been a Thames ferry and a floating hotel, and now ready to be refurbished to create a spacious family home.

 The Sovereign offers incredibly spacious accommodation over 3 levels. It could be converted to a houseboat for one family, it could be refurbished and used as a business, or because of its size it could have a self contained facility for rental and still be a sizeable houseboat for a family.

 There are currently 3 large reception rooms, 6 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms/en-suites, which can be changed about depending on your requirements. there is a good amount of windows on all levels so the accommodation is light, and there is also good headroom throughout.

 Externally there is a good amount of useable space with which to enjoy your surroundings, especially on the top deck where there is also a wheelhouse.

 The Sovereign has had her price dropped considerably, from £350,000 just two years ago to the price advertised now. The owners have taken into account the need for internal refurbishment, and possibly some work on the hull, when doing so. Because of this The Sovereign offers huge potential as either a full time home or business, at an incredible price. The price is not negotiable, and although any potential buyer is welcome to have a survey, the price will not be subject to survey.

 Offering incredible value for money, and an impressive amount of space, The Sovereign really could be a stunning home or prosperous business. The houseboat is freehold and the residential mooring is leasehold.
