About this property
Premier Houseboats are pleased to present Rana, a former working tug now converted to a comfortable standard, offering an abundance of space, charm, and opportunity. With accommodation arranged across three levels, Rana provides the ideal canvas to create a unique and characterful family home afloat.
Wheelhouse Level:
At the top level, the former wheelhouse now serves as a bright and inviting sitting room, offering panoramic views and access to a small outdoor seating area – perfect for enjoying your surroundings.
Deck Level:
This level is split into two sections.
The first entryway leads to what was once the crew’s quarters, now featuring a storage area, shower room, and separate toilet.
The second entryway opens into the main living area, comprising a comfortable lounge with ample space to add another sleeping area if desired, plus further storage options.
Below Deck Level:
A wide staircase leads down to the main living quarters, where the space opens into a generous lounge featuring a multi-fuel stove and a well-equipped kitchen with plenty of worktop space and storage. The kitchen includes a gas oven, fridge, and washing machine.
Forward from the kitchen lies a large double bedroom with a built-in bed and extensive storage.
A corridor runs aft from the lounge area to a bathroom area, which requires completion - the toilet is installed, and the bath (supplied) is ready for fitting. This level also houses a storage area containing the new gas combi boiler, and a second double bedroom, again with built-in bed and storage.
Externally, Rana offers excellent outdoor space ideal for entertaining, relaxing, or simply enjoying life by the water. While she would benefit from some aesthetic updates, structurally she is very sound, and the main conversion work has already been completed.
This is a boat that can be comfortably lived on while finishing off the remaining cosmetic touches - allowing you to personalise her to your own taste and requirements.
Moored on a secure residential berth in a popular and well-serviced village, Rana offers both tranquillity and convenience.
Within walking distance you’ll find a general store, restaurant/diner, and bus terminus with routes to neighbouring towns. The village also offers:
Schools for all ages
Doctors, dentist, chemist, and local shops
Restaurants and takeaways
Swimming pool and leisure centre
For commuters, the A2/M2 is less than 10 minutes away, giving easy access to London or the Kent coast, while Strood Station provides high-speed rail links to London in around 40 minutes.
The surrounding River Medway area offers sailing facilities and beautiful countryside walks.
Rana is a solid, spacious, and versatile converted tug offering comfortable accommodation, characterful living spaces, and plenty of scope for further personalisation. Whether you’re looking for a unique family home, a project with huge potential, or a character-filled escape on the water, Rana represents an excellent opportunity.
The houseboat is freehold and the residential mooring leasehold.
