About this property

    Premier Houseboats are pleased to present Dawn Gem, an ex trawler part converted but in need of refurbishment, but offering a large amount of accommodation to create a good sized family home.
    When walking on to Dawn gem you are stuck by the fantastic usable deck space, on three levels, offering outstanding views of your surroundings. You enter through a door towards the front of the boat to a good sized porch area, that also has a toilet to one side. Stairs lead down to the main living area, a lovely space on two levels. To one side is the galley, which looks down over the main lounge. There is plenty of work surface and storage, and a small set of steps lead up to the large walk in larder, that also houses the new lpg boiler To the other side of the galley is the dining area, a comfortable size that adds to the overall family feel of this main living area.
    Stairs lead down to the lounge area, again a good size with fantastic headroom. Off of the lounge is the first of two large double cabins, spacious and well fitted out. Steps lead up to a toilet and shower room, again well fitted out, and a second large double cabin.
    The main deck structure houses another area ready for conversion. There is the potential for three more double cabins, and a second living area. Although the engine is still in place, it is no longer running, but the space above the engine can be utilised to help create this second living area. The wheelhouse also provides further opportunity to create an office/study area.
    Externally, there is a deck space above the main deck structure, to the back and the front of the structure, and above the main entrance. Having these different spaces provides panoramic views, and great space to enjoy your surroundings.
    The Dawn Gem offers a fantastic opportunity to create an incredible family home, and could be lived on whilst the conversion is completed. She is a project, needing lots of work both internally and externally, which is reflected in the asking price.
    The houseboat is freehold and the residential mooring is lease hold.
