Price: £34,000

A 47ft 1991 Stephen Goldsborough 4 berth traditional stern narrowboat.

This classically designed narrowboat was blacked and fitted with new anodes in June 2024 and holds a BSS certificate valid until 2027.

Externally, there is a solar panel and also a cratch cover to protect the bow deck which has an 'A' frame to its structure.

Steps from the stern lead into the boatman's cabin which is a good sized space for keeping windlasses, mooring pins etc and also contains the inverter and charger.

The bedroom is at the stern and has a fixed double berth with wardrobe adjacent. This is followed by the bathroom which has a pump-out toilet, vanity unit and bath with shower overhead.

Moving through the boat, there is a spacious galley area with freestanding oven, sink, drainer, fridge, worktop and ample cupboards.

Of particular note is an exceptionally handsome wooden drop-down table unit, beautifully painted with a traditional 'Roses and Castles' design.

Finally, there is a comfortable saloon space with double sofa which can provide an extra double bed, solid fuel stove and tv cabinet. Steps lead to the bow doors and onto the deck.

Central heating throughout adds to the welcoming ambience of this boat.

To arrange to view, please contact Gayton Marina on 01604 858685.
