Narrowboat KISMET is a very recently (end of 2013) refurbished, high-spec, luxurious, comfy and homely liveaboard boat that blends contemporary stylish decor with traditional canal boat values. Kismet has been refitted using superior quality materials with a high standard of construction, aimed at maximising comfort and luxury. KISMET is an ideal opportunity for a couple or single person, for immediate residential occupancy or for long months of family cruising.
KISMET is a 63 foot semi-traditional narrowboat, constructed to top specifications by Severn Valley Cruisers in 1998. She is a long boat! At around 20 metres she has the potential to comfortably sleep 4 people, or 6 if the current study was used as an extra bedroom. At the moment she has a master bedroom and the second bedroom has been converted to a study/reading room, but this could be reversed easily enough (for a children's room, for example). Additionally, the comfortable sofa in the lounge converts to a double bed for guests. The brand new top-spec, stylish and practical bathroom is large enough for family or group needs, featuring a bath tub, shower and countertop basin. The kitchen has also just been refitted, with solid beach worktops, a gas oven/grill/hob and a large and stylish Belfast sink.
Kismet really is a fantastic and cosy boat, but we are having to reluctantly put her up for sale due to relocation abroad. This is an ideal opportunity for someone to acquire her and either start a new life on the water or upgrade from an existing boat. If you like what you see on this site and are genuinely interested in arranging a viewing then please do get in contact with the current owners Mike and Ania.
At present we are lucky enough to be 'continuous cruisers', meaning that we travel the waterways of the Oxfordshire area, both on the canal and the River Thames. We feel that if you are fortunate enough to have a house that moves then why not keep moving!! As such, we do not have a permanent mooring, but depending on your requirements you can find yourself a mooring in a marina, on the canal or on the river. We are registered for all of the UK waterways, including the canal and river network as well as the River Thames.
Available for viewings in Oxfordshire.
