I passed the property when I was on the river today. No massive surprises or worries. Sorry I didn't have a camera, but here are a few notes about what I saw.
- It looks rather different from the headline picture on the SS site or the pictures published on the sales brochures on some internet property sites, so some of those pictures may have been artist impressions or rather old. The pictures inside the valuation document are more reflective of what I saw.
- A few of the berths are occupied. A lot of empty berths.
- I could not see evidence of any active boat building. I expected to see a half built houseboat because we had been told the owner's plan was to build houseboats. Maybe I have mis-understood or maybe the work is out of site.
- It is an excellent location. It is the other side of the island from the main river navigation so there is no through traffic.
- There are some big and impressive houseboats the other side of the river from this site, suggesting the addition of impressive houseboats on this site would be in keeping with the area.
