Full Details for 4 Bedroom Detached for sale in Bembridge, PO35 :
This wonderfully converted 3 to 4 bedrooms houseboat enjoys an unrivalled position in Bembridge Harbour with uninterrupted views over the Harbour and out to the Solent.
This ex-Navy Munitions Barge, built around 1935, was converted in 2004/5 and has been carefully improved and maintained by the current owners to provide comfortable accommodation on two levels. In addition there are decked areas to the fore and aft providing the perfect spot to relax and enjoy the truly magnificent surroundings.
The houseboat has the benefit of "spud legs" which were fitted in 2014. These are 4 steel posts, 2 each side of the houseboat which minimize the sideways movement but allow the vessel to rise and fall with the tide.

OUTSIDE The houseboat is accessed from Embankment Road over a refurbished large landing stage area and onto the vessel. Hardwood decking areas with railings offer the perfect space from which to enjoy the views. There is a parking space in the houseboat carpark off Embankment Road.
