Step aboard Elizabeth Ann, a beautifully presented 50ft traditional stern narrowboat, built by the respected Colecraft in 1999. She has recently undergone a professional interior redecoration, giving her a fresh, welcoming feel throughout. This charming vessel is ready for her next chapter—ideal for someone seeking life on the water, whether moored in a quiet marina or cruising the canals full-time. With a well-thought-out layout, she offers comfortable, homely living and all the essentials for long-term use or extended leisure stays.
Inside, the galley is both functional and spacious, providing all you need to cook and dine aboard. It features generous wall and base unit storage, durable laminate worktops, and a smart stainless-steel sink with a mixer tap. For meal preparation, there’s a double oven, 4-ring gas hob, and a fridge with ice box—ensuring you can keep your groceries fresh and your crew well-fed during your travels.
Moving forward, the saloon is a light and airy space with ample room to relax. A large sofa bed offers flexible sleeping arrangements for guests, while a fitted unit provides storage and a dedicated space for a TV or entertainment setup. The area is kept warm and cosy by a full-sized radiator, and energy-efficient LED lighting creates a soft, ambient glow in the evenings. Double doors lead to the well deck, allowing plenty of natural light and offering an inviting connection to the outdoors.
The bedroom is located at the stern and boasts a fixed double bed with ample under-bed storage, making clever use of space. A built-in wardrobe with drawers below adds further practicality, helping to keep clothes and personal items neatly stored away. It’s a peaceful and private retreat after a day exploring the waterways.
The bathroom is compact yet smartly designed, offering everything needed for daily comfort. It features a walk-in shower enclosure, a washbasin set into a vanity unit with storage below, and wall shelving for toiletries and towels. The popular porta potti toilet is a practical solution for those looking for ease of use and simple waste disposal.
Elizabeth Ann’s layout flows conveniently from stern to bow: starting with the bedroom, followed by the bathroom, galley, and saloon, leading to the open well deck—perfect for morning coffees or evening moorings under the stars. With her solid Colecraft build and thoughtful fit-out, she’s a reliable, ready-to-go narrowboat for those wanting to embrace a slower, simpler pace of life on the water.
