Description

Step aboard Smeagles Dream, a charming 50ft cruiser stern narrowboat built in 2007, offering a surprisingly spacious and well-thought-out interior. Crafted by Cauldron Boat Builders and fitted out by Mike Christian, this boat combines a solid hull with a smart internal layout designed for both comfort and practicality. Uniquely for a cruiser of this length, it boasts a separate dinette area—perfect for relaxed meals or transforming into an extra double berth when guests are aboard.

The heart of the boat is its light, airy galley, which comes fully equipped for everyday living. A stainless steel sink and drainer, full-size oven and grill, 4-burner hob, 240v fridge/freezer, microwave, and even a washing machine make this a home from home. There’s ample countertop space and plenty of cupboards and drawers to keep everything neatly stowed away, making cooking on board a pleasure.

Moving forward, the saloon is a warm and inviting space. A solid fuel stove (new in 2017) provides both heat and a cosy atmosphere, while a 3-seater sofa offers a comfortable spot to relax. Thoughtful built-in storage ensures that the living area stays clutter-free, maintaining the clean lines and spacious feel throughout.

The dinette features two upholstered bench seats and a central table—an ideal nook for dining, working, or converting into a second double bed. Whether you're entertaining guests or enjoying a quiet breakfast, this area adds both functionality and flexibility.

At the stern, the main bedroom offers a peaceful retreat. A fixed double bed, wardrobe, and additional storage make it a comfortable space for extended stays aboard. The walk-through bathroom features a full-sized shower, wash basin, and a newly installed composting toilet, along with clever storage solutions to keep essentials close at hand.

Powered by a reliable Barras Shire 35hp engine, and supported by two large solar panels and a 3kW inverter, Smeagles Dream is ideal for off-grid cruising or full-time living. While the boat could benefit from a little cosmetic TLC—a fact reflected in the asking price—it represents a wonderful opportunity for anyone looking to personalise a narrowboat that’s already brimming with potential.

Smeagles Dream offers a rare combination of space, practicality, and character. Early viewing is highly recommended, as boats with this level of specification and layout are rarely available for long.
