You've probably never seen a real ''house boat'' like this one! Unless you walk on water, this boat allows the average mortal to enjoy grass, gardens and Cambridge Wood's trails. It's a landlubber's paradise! Originally built in 1926 as a tourist attraction, it's never seen real water and carries some of our city's best lore. Her features and charm include: oak trim/flooring, fresh galley KIT, BD/BA in the bow; LL rec room/2nd BA in the hull, porthole lights, colorful sea chart wall paper, a light house & smoking lamps. Be the next owner and carry on her legacy through the waves of history.
