Description

Hornblower is a 60ft (18m x 2.2m) narrowboat full of original features giving the boat character, with modern fittings to elevate the space. It is set up for off-grid living.

Hornblower benefits from a spacious open-plan living area, currently with a large sofa bed. The high ceilings (6ft 4”) and large windows on each side make the space bright. The kitchen has a full-size oven, with a grill and hob, both of which are fully gas. Beyond the kitchen, there is space for a desk for working from home, or it could be converted into a second bedroom. The bathroom is spacious with a shower and a pump-out toilet.

There is solid oak flooring throughout.
