LV16
Between 1989-2008 she was used as Inner Dowsing Bar and Restaurant at Medway Bridge Marina in Rochester. Her hull remains. The mast, lantern and most deck and interior fittings were removed to provide accommodation. One of her former lamps is now located at the front door of Greenwich Maritime Museum in London.
In 2009 Lightship 16 as she became known was sold and renovated, and now provides accommodation.

Gorgeous interior, so much character and so much flexibility as to how you live on board. Lovely open plan saloon with 3 zones. Plenty of windows and double doors to enjoy fresh air and views of the river. Every cabin is a good size and all bedrooms have their own en-suite. The video will give you a great walk through.

Commentaires du Broker
These boat details are subject to contract.
This is a unique opportunity to acquire a beautiful family home or, for the business minded of you, a great hospitality/guest venue.
The former owner built a good business for short term letting. Each cabin has its own en-suite, the galley area has two kitchen areas adjacent to one another.
This historic vessel oozes charm and character. She is on the National Historic Ships Register.
The structure of the vessel was constantly maintained by her owner until he became unwell.
This is a unique and an amazing opportunity for the right person at a very reasonable price.
She is able to stay on her current mooring subject to a meeting once an offer has been agreed.
Note: Offers on the asking price may be considered.
