A fantastic opportunity to create your own floating home, with many of the major structural improvements already completed.
Premier Houseboats are delighted to present Rosa, a spacious 60ft narrowboat situated on a secure residential mooring, offering exceptional potential for buyers looking to personalise and complete a liveaboard project.
Recently lifted from the water in 2024, Rosa has already benefited from significant investment, including a full 240V & 12V electrical rewire, 14 new hull anodes, and a 2024 out-of-water survey available on request. A brand-new boiler is also included and simply requires fitting, providing an excellent foundation for the next owner.
The current layout offers:
Spacious open-plan saloon
Kitchen with refurbishment potential
One double bedroom requiring refit
Bathroom
Practical and versatile internal layout
The interior now requires completion and cosmetic updating, giving buyers the freedom to create a floating home finished to their own taste and specification.
Powered by a reliable Lister LPWS4 40hp diesel engine, Rosa last cruised under her own power approximately two years ago. A routine engine service is recommended should regular cruising be required.
Whether you are seeking a permanent home, weekend retreat or investment project, Rosa offers excellent value with many of the expensive structural works already completed.
Located within a secure residential marina, Rosa enjoys a peaceful waterside setting with excellent access to local amenities, transport links and the River Medway. Shops, schools, restaurants and leisure facilities are all nearby, while road and rail connections provide convenient access to London and the Kent coast.
Rosa represents an outstanding opportunity to acquire an affordable narrowboat with a solid structure and many costly improvements already completed. With the remaining work focused mainly on the interior, this is an ideal chance to create a bespoke floating home in a secure residential marina.
Viewing is highly recommended to appreciate the potential this excellent project offers.
