Estate Sale....Outstanding and Extremely rare offering in Boston! This very special Luxury 3 bed/2 bath Houseboat is not only a fully functioning motor vessel, but has the distinction of having made her way to Boston from Georgia UNDER HER OWN POWER!!! This is an extraordinary feat for a houseboat-the vast majority of which are useless as boats! Apart from her useability though is her beauty and spaciousness and easy liveabilty for either a couple or small family. She truly feels like a large home on the water without the 1.5 to 3 Million dollar price tag you'd have to pay for an equivalent waterfront 2-3 bedroom condo! Why overlook the waterfront when you can live right in it for a fraction of the cost! The "roof deck" alone is worth the price of admission not to mention the homeyness and coziness of her beautiful interior!
Additionally, this extraordinary vessel has been kept in excellent condition with many updates that go far beyond those of a typical houseboat. (See maintenance and update list below) She has every modern amenity you would expect a fine home to have and far more than you'd expect from a houseboat. She is truly ready for her new owners to love and enjoy!
Some key features are as follows:
- (2) Large lower level decks fore and aft for protected outdoor enjoyment and potential 4 season use
- Newer enclosures for these lower decks
- (2) Fully functioning EFI gas engines with electronic controls-a harbor joyride on a nice day is quite possible!
- Bow and Stern thrusters for ease of docking!
