About
In one of the Maasplassen, at the height of Heijen/Gennep, this very spacious houseboat of nearly 40 meters is moored. From the Wanderer, you have a beautiful view over the Rijksvluchthaven with lovely sunsets over the Maas. The houseboat has been thoroughly renovated by the current owners into a luxurious living space with 2 kitchens, 3 bedrooms, a spacious bathroom, and a large workshop. Can you already see yourself living on the houseboat Wanderer? Then be sure to come aboard for a look inside.
Surroundings
The Wanderer is located in a green environment with an unobstructed view over the Rijksvluchthaven and the Maas. The nearby villages of Heijen and Gennep are easily accessible by bike and provide the essential amenities. In Nijmegen, Venlo, and Kleef (Germany), you can enjoy a lovely day out.
With the dinghy or the ship, you can easily sail up the Maas for a day of relaxation. An ideal base to explore the Netherlands from the water.
The houseboat is at the end of the row of houseboats, and only destination traffic comes through. There is space on the quay for a shipping container, which is currently used as storage/workshop. The adjacent business provides a lively atmosphere with the loading and unloading of cargo ships.
Layout
Via a sturdy gangway, you reach the compact wheelhouse with comfortable benches and a beautiful view over the Rijksvluchthaven and the Maas. The current owners often enjoy the water living here. In the roef, a compact kitchen has been created with a cozy living room. There is also an office, ideal for working from home.
From the wheelhouse, you can access the former cargo hold through the tea hut (utility room), where spacious rooms have been arranged due to the height and width. First, there are 2 bedrooms and a hallway with a technical room. Then a modern eat-in kitchen with a cooking island and plenty of cupboard space, a master bedroom, and a bathroom equipped with a new steam shower cabin, as well as a sauna. Further forward, you will find the spacious workshop, which offers many possibilities for the new owner.
In the middle of the ship, there is a spacious terrace measuring 12 x 4 meters.
From the foredeck, the old fore roef is accessible, which is currently used as storage.
History
The ship was built in 1931 as a spits at the shipyard Chantier Naval Lalys in Ghent with a cargo capacity of 341 tons. In 1954, the ship received a Dutch registration under the name Res Nova. Until then, it had a Belgian registration. Since then, the ship has had many names until it came into the hands of the current owners in 2005.
Technology
The houseboat Wanderer was last inspected in 2020 for the hull and has CVO/CBB until 2027. The current owners have systematically renovated the ship into a spacious and practical houseboat with 3 bedrooms, a spacious kitchen, a luxury bathroom with sauna and steam cabin, and a living room and office in the roef. Heating can be provided by the diesel/pellet central heating and cooling with air conditioning units in all rooms. Technically, the ship is very well equipped for long journeys.
