- Houseboat - The Dove

Originally built in 1994 by Richard Scrivens, this exceptionally well-maintained houseboat presents an opportunity to secure a quality vessel in very good condition. Whether you're looking for an investment or a private liveaboard lifestyle, this vessel is ready to impress. Offered fully equipped for private ownership, The Dove presents an ideal floating home or relaxed holiday escape opportunity. Inside, the layout is both spacious and functional. The houseboat features four bedrooms, three of which include double beds, one with an overhead single bunk and all with built-in storage. The fourth bedroom- currently configured as a rear lounge for hire purposes- offers flexibility and is ideal to be reimagined as a rear lounge with a day bed or sofa bed. At the front of the boat, an open-plan lounge, dining, and kitchen space offers both comfort and style. The lounge includes a 3-seater leather sofa and two matching chairs, while the dining area showcases a stone-top table with seating for eight together with attractive and functional built-in storage. The light-filled kitchen is finished with glossy white cabinetry and a generous stone benchtop. It comes complete with ample storage cupboards and with quality appliances including a Miele dishwasher, 4-burner gas cooktop, built-in Westinghouse gas oven and microwave, and two 210L fridge/freezers. There are two modern, fully tiled 2-way bathrooms, the main featuring a spa bath and shower, and the second with a shower, laundry facilities including inbuilt washer/dryer, storage cupboards, and a marine toilet in each. Throughout the living areas and bedrooms, you'll find quality commercial-grade carpets in excellent condition. Evaporative air conditioning is ducted into the bedrooms for comfort during the warmer months. Above, a bimini-covered upper deck offers the perfect spot for laid-back entertaining--think sunset drinks with friends, casual BBQs, or simply relaxing with a good book while taking in the stunning Murray River views. It's an easy, comfortable space to unwind, enjoy great company, and soak up the best of river life.
