2008 57ft x 10ft Northwich Boat Co. Widebeam For Sale

A fantastic opportunity to acquire an immaculate Northwich 57ft x 10ft steel barge, ideal for anyone looking for that perfect live-aboard boat. This has been my home and it is only personal circumstances that are forcing the sale.

Beautifully appointed throughout with a huge specification & ready for you to immediately move it. She offers luxury and space for you to liveaboard or just cruise the wide inland canals and rivers of England. Particularly suitable for those who require a little more width than the usual narrowboat. Step aboard and you could be forgiven for thinking you are in a very plush apartment rather than a boat.

Modern, yet retaining a traditional air is achieved by the use of rich warm light oak offset by antique white cabin sides and headlining. definitely worth a viewing!
