Serondella is a 51ft semi-traditional stern Narrowboat, built in 2000 by Midland Canal Centre Stenson Boat Builders. Cleverly arranged in a forward layout and offering accommodation for up to six, she makes excellent use of her 51ft length, creating a bright, airy and surprisingly spacious interior. The versatile accommodation begins with a convertible master cabin at the stern, followed by a bathroom with cassette toilet. Centrally positioned is the U-shaped galley, complete with a Pullman-style dinette table, while the spacious forward saloon features an L-shaped sofa and benefits from direct access onto the bow well deck. Powered by a Beta Marine 43hp four-cylinder diesel engine coupled to a PRM 150 gearbox. Heating is provided by a diesel-fired Webasto central heating system, complemented by a Morso multifuel stove in the saloon. Hot water is supplied via the central heating system and engine calorifier, with both 12V and 240V electrical systems installed onboard. With her clever layout, generous accommodation and practical specification, Serondella would make an excellent family cruising boat for extended holidays, or a comfortable and well-appointed liveaboard home. Available to view seven days a week at Pyrford Marina. Please contact the team on 01932 343275 to arrange a viewing.

Interior Arrangements

Convertible Master Cabin

Entering the boat through the central stern doors leads into the versatile convertible master cabin. An L-shaped sofa arrangement provides a comfortable day cabin and can be easily converted into a spacious across-the-width double berth when required. An overhead shelf with a reading spotlight provides useful storage and lighting, while additional storage is located beneath the seating, with a hanging wardrobe positioned aft to starboard.

Bathroom

The practical bathroom is fitted with a shower enclosure, Thetford cassette toilet and vanity unit with mirror above. Charming parquet flooring adds character to this well-appointed washroom.

Galley

The U-shaped galley is well equipped for extended cruising and includes a surface-mounted Vanette 4000/2 four-burner gas hob, built-in Vanette GG 7000 gas grill and oven, 12V Shoreline refrigerator with ice box, and a kitchen sink with a stainless-steel mixer tap. The galley also benefits from the same attractive parquet flooring.

 A starboard-side hatch provides plenty of natural light and excellent ventilation. An acrylic insert is also provided, allowing the hatch to remain closed while still bringing additional light into the cabin and keeping the elements out when required.

Dinette

The Pullman-style dinette features forward- and aft-facing seating and provides a versatile dining and living area. The dinette can be converted to form an additional double berth when required, with useful storage space located beneath the seating.

Saloon

The forward saloon features an L-shaped sofa with seating for four, creating an inviting social space for relaxing or entertaining family and guests. The seating can be easily converted into a further double berth when required, with useful storage provided beneath.

The saloon benefits from direct access onto the bow well deck, which is fitted with a cratch frame and cover, providing an enjoyable outdoor space and a practical additional area for cruising and entertaining.
