Theodoric – stunning 57′ Trad 2011 Tyler Wilson / William Piper / Oakcraft
Theodoric, meaning ‘Leader of the People’, is a stunning 57’ traditional stern narrowboat.
The hull is a Tim Tyler. She was originally fitted out by William Piper Narrowboats and commissioned in 2011. She has recently been refitted by Jim Birch of Oakcraft Narrowboats, and his work is first class. She is solid oak virtually throughout and the paint on ceiling & cabin sides is Farrow & Ball. You will wait a while to see another boat with such character and charm as this.
Much of the boat is new. The stern cabin was recently refitted in beautiful reclaimed elm. The engine, with only 770 hours on the clock (NOT 279 as stated in the video commentary), is under the floor. There is useful storage in here, and the inverter (3kw) in the cupboard was new in August 2017.
The bedroom follows, and has a two poster double bed with an oak wardrobe / chest of drawers at the foot. Two side hatches with inner glazed doors. There is a wall mounted TV in here as well as a traditional column radiator under an oak shelf.
The bathroom is only 2 years old. The quadrant shower was re-tiled, the basin & oak vanity unit was custom built, the oak cupboard housing the washing machine & tumble dryer was new, and the extractor fan was new. There is a copper piped towel rail in here, and the loo is an electric macerating pump out.
The saloon follows. An exceptionally beautiful room. The solid fuel stove is 2 years old as are the oak lined pigeon boxes and the galley. The 2nd column radiator is in here and the room feels like a luxurious cottage sitting room. The side hatch offers additional light.
The galley follows. Plenty of storage space in here and the cupboards have LED lights in which activate on opening. The Heritage aga-type stove is diesel fired, and as well as for cooking, it heats the central heating and the hot water. The fridge in here is 3 years old, and the dishwasher is two years old. The pigeon box offers additional light, as does the side hatch over the sink.
The forward cabin offers a dinette & additional double berth. This charming second sitting room, dining room or guest bedroom has another TV in, a wardrobe and cupboard space. The steps cleverly retract under the well deck to maximise space.
The oak furnished well deck, with cratch cover (two years old) & single or double demountable tables, also turns into another guest summer bedroom for one or a cosy two.
She was re-painted in 2017 and blacked in 2017 & 2018. Other new items in 2017 not detailed above include all the solar panels, galvanic isolator, antique effect dolly light switches, brass porthole rings, and hardwire WIFI with twin external 4G aerial.
An amazing opportunity to acquire a truly individual boat.
