Avontuur is an 80ft-long, 55-tonne Dutch barge built in 1908, now moored in a picturesque waterside location within Badnam Creek, part of Mercury Yacht Harbour in Hamble. The barge has been converted to residential accommodation and can be re-commissioned as a motor vessel with the right skills and budget. It has been located in the same spot for over 30 years and offers stunning views of the creek. The interior features a wheelhouse, bedroom, and deck area on the upper deck, with an open-plan kitchen/dining and living area, three bedrooms, and a bathroom on the lower deck. The property benefits from a monthly mooring fee of £668, mains electricity, water, TV, and telephone facilities. Hamble is a charming village with a rich history, offering a range of amenities, including shops, pubs, and restaurants, as well as woodland and coastal walks. The surrounding area is popular with sailors and ramblers, and the barge would make a unique and idyllic full-time home or weekend/holiday pad.
