Full Details for 5 Bedroom Detached for sale in Bembridge, PO35 :

This former motor gun boat was constructed in 1941 but has spent the last 27 years on the shore at Bembridge Harbour under the eye of its current owners. The boat has featured heavily on TV in the past from holiday programmes to historical documentaries. The boat is of wooden construction and has been converted over the years to provide living accommodation measured at approximately 120ft long.
The upper deck currently provides a spacious lounge and dining area, w/c and French doors out to the bow with spectacular views across the harbour and directly out to the Solent. Below deck are 5 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms. A large sitting room offers excellent additional living space. A kitchen and utility area make this a home from home. A truly unique proposition for any purchaser.
The current owners have kept many mementos from World War 2 from uniforms, medals, decommissioned guns and models, all of which capture the remarkable history of this boat.
