Ambrose Bierce

Under offer

Price: £58,995

A 57ft 2018 Tyler Wilson 2 berth cruiser stern narrowboat.

Ambrose Bierce is a very eye-catching boat with a stylish blue and cream themed livery and high-specification interior. Ideally sized for cruising the length and breadth of Britain's canal network, this boat would be equally suitable as a holiday home or a live aboard, especially as there is even a washing machine!

Ideal for a couple, the boat has a reverse layout meaning that the galley and lounge area are at the stern. The spacious saloon is furnished with easy chairs, table, sideboard with tv on top and a solid fuel stove (although there are also central heating radiators throughout).

The galley area is beautifully designed with integrated appliances and plenty of storage cupboards. A side hatch also features here.

A walk-through bathroom makes optimum use of the 6ft 10ins width, with a large shower cubicle with curved screen, a cassette toilet and vanity unit with handbasin.

At the bow of the boat is a double bed, more storage space and separate double wardrobe.

Built just 6 years ago, there are only 12 hours on the engine, and this boat also has an electric bow thruster.

A Boat Safety Certificate is valid till November 2028.

The whole boat is a bit of a stunner and viewing is highly recommended. Please contact Blackwater Meadow Marina on 01691 624391.
