MAGGIE - £50,000

🏡 Maggie – Fully Refurbished Floating Home on Residential Mooring

    Premier Houseboats are pleased to present Maggie, a beautifully refurbished and strengthened one-bedroom static home, originally built in 2018 and now offered on a secure residential mooring. Thoughtfully redesigned and upgraded throughout in 2024, Maggie provides comfortable and economical waterside living, ideal as a full-time home or peaceful retreat.

⚓ Overview

  Originally designed as a compact, affordable floating home, Maggie had fallen into disrepair over time. Her current owners have lovingly restored her from the hull up, with significant structural strengthening, internal refurbishment, and modern upgrades throughout. Their change of circumstances now presents an opportunity for a new owner to enjoy this impressive floating home, which is virtually turnkey ready.

🏠 Accommodation & Layout

Maggie offers bright and practical accommodation with excellent use of space:

Spacious double bedroom with new pine panelling and fresh flooring

Bathroom with new bath, macerator toilet, hand basin, and new wall panelling and plastic tiles

Open-plan kitchen and lounge area, featuring:

Brand-new gas oven and hob (jets require conversion to LPG)

New plastic wood-effect flooring with five access hatches to the bilges

Patio doors leading to a small deck area, with steps to the railed roof terrace — ideal for outdoor dining or relaxing

Large double-glazed windows throughout provide plenty of natural light, giving the home a bright and airy atmosphere.

🔧 Refurbishment & Upgrades (2024)

Maggie has undergone a complete rebuild and refit, including:

New fibreglass roof with added insulation

Fully rewired throughout

New internal ceilings, doors, and pine wall panelling

New macerator for the toilet and sump pump for the bath

Hull straightened, strengthened, and internally re-fibreglassed

Four new bilge pumps, with bilges linked for even water flow

Waste pipes raised to accommodate new hull structure and stability improvements

Front and rear decks rebuilt, strengthened, and fibreglassed

Roof terrace fitted with new railings and outdoor furniture

The only remaining work required is fitting a new boiler and casing, as the previous unit was mounted externally.
