ALMA - £265,000

⚓ Beautifully Maintained Luxemotor – Residential Mooring with 44-Year Licence 

Premier Houseboats are delighted to present Alma — an exceptionally well-maintained and fully operational Luxemotor, offered with a 44-year residential mooring licence. This impressive vessel combines traditional craftsmanship with modern comfort, creating an ideal long-term floating home and cruising opportunity.

Finished throughout in oak and ash, Alma has been beautifully fitted out to a high standard, offering spacious and versatile accommodation.

🛋️ Accommodation

Guest double cabin with en suite toilet

Large wheelhouse / summer lounge with excellent natural light and views

Well-appointed kitchen with ample storage and workspace

Separate utility area for convenience

Comfortable saloon ideal for relaxing or entertaining

Second double bedroom

Modern shower room with toilet and basin

Throughout the vessel you’ll find built-in storage, diesel-fired central heating, and secondary double glazing to all windows, ensuring comfort all year round.

⚙️ Equipment & Condition

Alma is fully operational and ready for extended cruising, complete with navigation equipment, generator, and tender — allowing you to anchor offshore with ease.
She was dry-docked in May/June 2016, where a full survey (available on viewing) found her to be in excellent condition. At that time, the hull was repainted and new anodes fitted.

The vessel is powered by a DAF 6-cylinder, 100hp diesel engine, providing reliable performance on both tidal and non-tidal waterways.

⚓ Residential Mooring

Alma benefits from a 44-year residential mooring lease. Instead of standard mooring fees (typically £1.75 per foot per week), a maintenance charge of only £70 per week applies — representing substantial savings over time for this 90ft mooring, especially as mooring rates continue to rise.

This secure, long-term mooring offers peace of mind and excellent value, with your berth always available whenever you choose to cruise.

🌳 Location

Situated in a popular and well-connected village, the mooring offers both convenience and community. Within walking distance are a general store, restaurant/diner, and bus terminus serving nearby areas. The village also features schools for all ages, doctors, dentist, chemist, local shops, and a swimming pool and leisure centre.

For commuters, the A2/M2 is less than ten minutes away, offering quick access to London or the coast, while Strood Station provides high-speed rail links to London in around 40 minutes. The area is also close to the River Medway, with sailing facilities and beautiful countryside walks nearby.
