Le Petomane is a charismatic 17.8 Metre Dutch Barge, sympathetically remodeled by her current owner with quality materials and a high standard of finish.
Spray foam lined for comfort and her wheelhouse extended, she now offers spacious, homely accommodation for a couple in a single cabin with a large heads/shower room and two comfortable reception areas.
Great opportunity to acquire a unique floating home with option to transfer existing residential mooring (subject to marina approval).
