Evening Star - Sold

Evening Star is a beautifully presented 57ft cruiser stern narrowboat, built and professionally fitted out by Bickerstaffe in 2017. At 57ft, she is perfectly sized to navigate the entire UK inland waterways network, striking the ideal balance between easy cruising and spacious onboard living. Designed with both practicality and comfort in mind, she is equally suited for weekend getaways, extended leisure cruising, or full-time liveaboard life.

Her sociable cruiser stern is one of her standout features, providing ample space for friends and family to gather while underway or to enjoy a relaxing drink at the end of the day when moored. The desirable reverse layout further enhances the onboard experience, flowing seamlessly from the stern into the galley and through to the living and sleeping quarters.

The galley is both stylish and practical, fitted with solid oak worktops, an inset stainless-steel sink with mixer tap, and an eye-level oven and grill for ease of use. A Thetford four-ring gas hob with glass cover and a 12v LEC fridge complete the setup, offering everything needed to prepare meals onboard with ease.

Moving into the saloon, you’ll find a cosy and welcoming retreat. A Squirrel stove provides warmth and charm on cooler evenings, while a radiator and carpeted flooring add to the homely feel. Two comfortable chairs create a space to relax, and a large TV mounted on a flexible arm ensures perfect viewing from any angle.

The Pullman Dinette sits at the heart of the living space, offering a versatile dining area with storage beneath the seating. It easily converts into a double bed, making it ideal for accommodating visiting friends or family.

At the bow, the fixed double bed provides a peaceful and inviting space to rest, complete with overhead and under-bed storage to keep belongings neatly tucked away. A wall-mounted TV adds a touch of luxury, while double doors open onto the well deck – the perfect spot to enjoy a morning coffee or soak up the beauty of the canal surroundings.

The well-designed walk-through bathroom maximises the use of space while offering modern convenience. It features a full-size shower enclosure with sleek wall panels, a mixer shower, and a vanity basin with mixer tap and storage beneath, creating a fresh and functional area.

Additional features such as CCTV, a touchscreen radio, a stainless-steel water tank with Nature Pure inline filter, and high-quality finishes throughout make Evening Star a truly impressive narrowboat. Combining thoughtful design with comfort and style, she is a versatile and beautifully maintained boat, ready to welcome her new owners for the next chapter of adventures on the waterways.
