Description
A rare opportunity to acquire a beautifully presented 65ft fully equipped catamaran houseboat, offering an exceptional lifestyle on the water.
Originally built in Pembrokeshire between 2000 and 2007 by a professional boat builder, this unique vessel was designed as a liveaboard and has since been completely refurbished to a high standard in 2021–2022, with approximately £80,000 invested in upgrades.
Spanning three levels, the vessel provides spacious and comfortable living accommodation including a bright lounge, bespoke fitted kitchen, three bedrooms, and a modern family bathroom. High-quality Houdini double-glazed marine aluminium windows provide durability and excellent insulation throughout the vessel.
Externally, the boat offers a large rear decking area ideal for entertaining, along with an upper wheelhouse and top deck with commanding views. The vessel is powered by twin Ford Mermaid diesel engines, each fed by dedicated fuel tanks and with very low running hours.
Currently moored at Essex Marina on the River Crouch, the berth offers convenient access to marina facilities including bar, café, secure parking, and 24-hour security. The mooring may be transferable subject to marina agreement.
This vessel offers a rare chance to own a spacious liveaboard home or distinctive coastal cruiser, equally suited for full-time living, a weekend retreat, or a unique investment opportunity.
