Premier Houseboats are delighted to present Ellen Elizabeth, a charming Humber Keel offering spacious, light-filled accommodation on a secure residential mooring - with the added advantage of cruising capability. Beautifully converted and sympathetically updated, this steel-hulled classic provides both comfort and character, combining the appeal of traditional craftsmanship with the convenience of modern living. Entering at deck level, you step into a large, bright kitchen featuring an abundance of natural light from multiple large windows. The kitchen offers ample workspace and storage, a sink, and an LPG oven, creating a welcoming space for cooking and dining. Steps lead down to the refurbished lounge, a warm and inviting living area complete with a new multi-fuel burner and skylight for natural illumination. The space has been newly decorated with quality flooring and includes an area beneath the kitchen that could easily be adapted into a second double berth if required. From the lounge, a door leads to a large double bedroom, beautifully presented and offering excellent built-in storage. Beyond this lies the family bathroom, recently refitted to a high standard and featuring a double shower cubicle, hand basin, and new toilet. The bathroom also houses a new gas combi boiler, which supplies central heating and hot water, complementing the multi-fuel burner perfectly. A corridor runs back from the lounge on both sides, providing additional storage areas and access to further underfloor space. While not full headroom, this area could be used as a laundry, utility, or extra sleeping area. Externally, Ellen Elizabeth provides ample deck space for relaxing and enjoying the river views. The wheelhouse would benefit from updating but offers great potential should you wish to restore her cruising capabilities. The Lister HRW6M diesel engine, showing under 3, 000 hours, is in running order and would require a full service prior to any extended cruising. This Humber Keel offers the perfect blend of comfortable static living and potential mobility, making her an ideal choice for anyone seeking a characterful and practical home afloat. Located within walking distance of local amenities including a general store and restaurant ∕ diner, the mooring sits in a popular village community offering everything needed for convenient everyday living: Schools for all ages Doctors, dentist, chemist, and shops Restaurants, takeaways, swimming pool, and leisure centre For commuters, the A2 ∕ M2 provides quick access to London and the Kent coast, while Strood Station offers high-speed rail links to London in around 40 minutes. The surrounding area boasts river access, sailing facilities, and beautiful countryside walks. Ellen Elizabeth is a well-maintained Humber Keel offering bright, comfortable living space and scope to cruise. With thoughtful updates, a high-quality finish, and a secure mooring in a desirable location, she represents an ideal opportunity to enjoy life afloat - whether as a residential home or part-time cruiser.
