Description 
 
Premier Houseboats are pleased to present Medway Rhino, an absolutely unique houseboat in full running order and offering great space both internally and externally.
Medway Rhino has been thoughtfully and sympathetically converted to create an incredible home whilst retaining the outward features of a working boat, and has been used regularly. Medway Rhino comes on a prime secure residential mooring within a residential marina.
Medway Rhino is entered through the wheelhouse, a large area fully equipped to cruise comfortably, which can also be used as an office or social area when not cruising.. Stairs lead down to a stunning open plan living area which has been expertly finished using high quality materials. There is a fully fitted kitchen, with gas oven and hob, microwave and fridge/freezer, together with plenty of storage and work surface, and a breakfast bar.
The lounge is a very good size, with plenty of light from both portholes and a large skylight. Forward from the open plan living area is a double cabin, currently used as a nursery. there is also a large bathroom with full sized bath with shower attachment, hand basin, towel rail and toilet.
Back from the open plan living area is a large double bedroom, again with plenty of storage and with room to create an en-suite bathroom if required. There is full central heating throughout Medway Rhino, and the owner has created a characterful and spacious home with great attention to detail throughout.
Externally Medway Rhino has a unique look which gives no clue as to the wonderful accommodation inside, and yet there is great opportunity to enjoy your surroundings when not cruising due to the large amount of outside deck space.
The powerful engine offers plenty of power to cruise both inland and coastal waterways, the boat was a salvage vessel when working and offers a wonderful opportunity to own a truly unique cruising home.
