This is a listing for a spacious 40 foot Traditional Stern Narrowboat. It has had a very recent full survey, blacking and Safety check.We bought this boat in October last year and chose it for its immaculate hull, which was the most important thing for us. The inside of the boat was old and outdated so we stripped the boat bare and rebuilt it from the inside out, which had been a labour of love spanning over a year.The wood work was fitted by us and hand finished, making it feel cosy, rustic and original, creating a homely unique feel – there isn’t another one like it.We designed the interior to make it open and spacious, making the most of a tiny home. All of the appliances, including the cooker, the water heater and the plumbing and wiring are new.We had planned to live many long years in the boat, however with our baby crawling and beginning to walk we have found we need more space.One of our favourite parts of the boat was the wood burner which we installed November last year, it kept the boat beautifully toasty and warmer through those cold months than if we were in a house, despite the canal freezing! With the Eco fan on top, the heat travels all the way to the bedroom keeping it an ideal temperature through the night.Ready to move on, would suit a live aboard, continuous cruiser or casual holiday use.Currently moored in Milton Keynes, 5minutes away from M1 Junction 14Technical information
