Premier Houseboats are pleased to present Arjan, a large Dutch barge on a residential mooring ready to convert to a large family home. Arjan is an ex working barge, but spent the recent years as a workshop barge on the river Thames.
Arjan benefits from having the original crews quarters still in place, with a small amount of work these could be made liveable and are an ideal space to use whilst converting the main hold. They also have the potential, once the main hold has been converted, to become a self contained apartment, with room for two bedrooms, saloon, galley and shower room.
The hold has an incredible amount of space, great headroom and is currently split into three areas. Conversion of this area should be relatively straight forward, and there is easily enough room for a large open plan living area, at least two large bedrooms and a family bathroom.
The roof is made up of individual hatch covers, these could be kept or replaced with a fixed roof. The outdoor space available is incredible, with stunning views across the marina and out to the river Medway, the boat itself is on one of the prime moorings in the marina. She has a crane on her starboard side which can be kept to load materials on board.The engine room has been turned into a generator room, but could also be a perfect utility room.
The hull of the boat requires some work, specifically along the waterline and at the stern.
Arjan offers a fantastic opportunity to create a large family home on a mooring with stunning views.
