Description
The boat has been with the current owners for fifteen years and the boat was originally built in 1945 in Grimsby.
The home is 50' in length and has a wooden hull with larch planks on oak timbers.
Set on a live-a-board mooring on the outskirts of Falmouth, this houseboat is a lovely home.
Viewers will be pleasantly surprised at the size, space and interior with fully fitted kitchen with LPG cooker, saloon with multi-fuel stove, two bedrooms and shower room (heating is provided from the multi-fuel stove).
There is an abundance of cleverly created storage throughout and a mains electric hook up and water supply.

Located on the outskirts of Falmouth at Ponsharden Boatyard which also has parking, shower, WC and a washing machine, the 50' Ranger of Lune is moored halfway along in this idyllic spot on the Penryn estuary with views up the River Fal, Sailors Creek and across to Flushing.
The sunrise and sunsets are truly amazing we hear, creating a calm and tranquil environment, however, when required the Lidl and Sainsbury supermarket stores are just a walk away. Mains water and electric are supplied. Ponsharden Boatyard is located between Falmouth and Penryn with the A39 easily accessible.
