Houseboat Rio Claro of 77.5 m long

This historic barge was built in 1889. The large steel hull was riveted at that time (not welded) with pure quality steel, which makes the ship is resistant to erosion at the waterline. The captain and flight home was renovated in 1964, the two Cummins engines were then also installed. Here's a bathroom, two bedrooms, a kitchenette with dining and living space. This living area has largely retained its authenticity. In about 1998 the hold was adapted to a very comfortable houseboat. In the rear one finds the large living spaces (approx 200sqm). Several sitting areas and a large multipurpose kitchen are absolutely trump here. The patio connects us to the hold of the cabins. There are five major bedrooms, a bathroom with tub and toilet, a shower room and a place for washing machine and dryer. The front is currently used as a workshop, a personal interpretation you can of course always indicate. For your enjoyment the Rio Claro has some sizeable terraces on the top deck and the skipper house. The layout and size of the ship have several possible applications: private residence, kangaroo house, offices, guestrooms - airbnb (provided there is a licence) ... The approximately 775m² is very versatile and can be adjusted at will. Are you looking for space and originality? Then this is for you an important opportunity! Contact Engel & Völkers for more info.
