Introducing an unparalleled opportunity to live in the heart of Sausalito… on a two-story floating condo boat! Nestled in the Bay Area, this floating paradise known as the Mermaid Queen is an historic two-story sternwheeler paddleboat boasting both history and charm. The boat has been meticulously maintained, hauled and painted as recently as 09/2018.
As soon as you step onboard, you're greeted with a spacious living room that exudes warmth via the wood-burning stove. Functional living extends into the full-size galley kitchen, fully equipped to cater to your culinary needs. Retreat to serene slumber in the separate bedroom that hosts a Captain's Queen bed - the subtle rocking of the boat is sure to send you off to sweet dreams.
The boat's full bathroom comes complete with a glass-enclosed shower, sink, and an Incinolet incinerating toilet. Clamber up the ladder to discover the expansive roof deck and the Pilot House with a nostalgic wooden steering wheel. Here, a 10' x 10' wheelhouse speaks promise of a second bedroom, home office, or a creative studio giving priority to your lifestyle preferences.
What's more? The charm of this adorable floating home extends to the outside as well! A huge roof deck offers ample space to relax and soak in the beautiful weather, or simply take in the inspiring, picturesque surroundings. The boat also provides life vests, extinguishers, and flares for safety. The genuine beauty of this floating home is its location. Docked in Sausalito's "banana belt", sunniest of areas when fog engulfs San Francisco and Mill Valley, it is a nature lover's delight with seals, herons, and egrets thriving in abundance.
Near downtown Sausalito, the location is a convenient 15-minute car ride to San Francisco, or a brisk ten-minute walk to the Ferry. A plethora of restaurants, stores offering live music, and a health food store adorn the neighborhood. For outdoor enthusiasts, nearby hiking trails, kayaking options and a stellar bike trail beckon. Fancy a picturesque half-hour ferry cruise to the city of San Francisco? The Sausalito Ferry has you covered!
Perfect for those seeking a blend of tranquil living and urban convenience, this is not just a home - it's a lifestyle. Now available for viewings by appointment only, this truly unique home awaits your vision. Take the leap to experiencing full-sized comfortable living on the refreshing waters of the Bay Area and revel in the enchanting promise that the Mermaid Queen holds for you.
