Premier Houseboats are pleased to present Spirit of California, a rare opportunity to own a purpose built American cruising home, refurbished and on a secure residential mooring on the river Medway in Kent. This boat offers an array of opportunities, it can be a houseboat, weekend boat, leisure boat or fishing boat.
The refurbishment has been thoroughly and professionally completed. The open plan living area is on two levels. Entering through sliding doors to wheelhouse/saloon area you are immediately struck by the incredible light. This area comes furnished with two single chairs and a two seater, and also houses the gas fired hot water heater. Steps back lead down to the lower level accommodation. This has a small kitchenette with two ring hob, combi microwave and grill, fridge and freezer. There is plenty of room for another seating area or dining area. There is also bathroom with shower cubicle, toilet and hand basin.
A small flight of stairs leads forward from the first living area to the sleeping area underneath. There is a built in wardrobe at the bottom of the stairs, and the sleeping area has room for two double mattresses. There is limited headroom of about 4' in this area. There is hot air heating throughout the boat run by diesel, and there is a separate 33ltr diesel tank to fuel this.
Externally there is a large amount of deck space in three different areas, allowing you to enjoy your surroundings whether cruising or moored up. There are 2 Volvo Penta petrol engines providing 290HP in total. These were last serviced in 2015 and will need servicing as they have been seldom used, the boat has been used as a static home for the last 7 is believed one of the engines will need a new starter motor. Spirit of California has a shallow draft giving the ability to cruise a large percentage of the inland waterways.
Spirit of California is competitively priced and offers a rare opportunity to own an American built floating home, with the ability to cruise whilst also offering a very economic way to live when moored. The houseboat is freehold and the residential mooring is leasehold.
