Description

12m Traditional Broads Cruiser, Built in the 1970’s with a Fully Transferable Mooring

A charming Caribbean 39 river cruiser built by F.B. Wilds, perfectly positioned in South Dock Marina for premium waterfront living in Central London.

This classic vessel offers an exceptional blend of original character and a spacious wide-beam layout, providing far more usable living space than standard designs. It represents an ideal opportunity for a solo adventurer or a couple seeking a tranquil, scenic lifestyle on the water.

The light, colourful, and comfortable interior features a well-proportioned main saloon flooded with natural light from windows lining three sides. This versatile living space comfortably accommodates a freestanding sofa bed, a dual-purpose work and dining table, and two armchairs around a traditional wood-burning stove that creates a warm, welcoming atmosphere. Running efficiently alongside is a smartly designed galley equipped with a sink, a four-hob gas oven, and ample under-counter units, supplemented by a freestanding fridge and microwave.

For accommodations, the thoughtful layout features two distinct cabins separated by a well-appointed, centrally located toilet and shower compartment, providing excellent separation from the main living areas.

Outside, the vessel boasts a forward cockpit and a low-maintenance GRP finish that keeps upkeep simple and practical. Generous side deck walkways wrap safely around the perimeter for easy movement between the usable bow and stern decks, offering direct access to the front seating area straight from the forward cabin.

The sale is completely exempt from the standard 10% transfer fee usually payable to Southwark Council, representing a substantial saving.

Furthermore, the existing mooring licence can be converted to official residential status entirely
free of charge.

Also featuring some of the most competitive mooring rates in London. Whether you’re commuting via the doorstep river bus or the nearby Surrey Quays and Canada Water stations, you’ll enjoy a peaceful maritime lifestyle without sacrificing easy access to the heart of the city.
