Maple is a smart and stylish 40ft cruiser stern narrowboat with a modern reverse layout, built by Aintree Boat Builders in 1999 and fitted out by Wessex. Recently refreshed both inside and out, she benefits from an exterior repaint in 2025 and a full interior redecoration in 2026, giving her a bright, contemporary feel throughout. Parquet flooring runs the length of the boat, adding warmth, durability, and a real sense of quality.
Boarding from the stern, you step straight into the impressive open-plan galley, designed to be both sociable and practical. This well-equipped space features solid wooden worktops, a Butler sink, four-ring Vanette gas oven and grill, Shoreline 12-volt fridge freezer, and microwave, along with ample storage cupboards. A two-seater breakfast bar with iron stools creates a relaxed spot for casual dining or entertaining.
Moving forward, the saloon offers a comfortable and welcoming living area, complete with a two-seater sofa bed providing additional sleeping accommodation. An Evergreen multi-fuel stove adds a cosy focal point for year-round cruising, while a TV on a swivel bracket and bookshelf below make this space ideal for evenings onboard.
The bathroom is well laid out and modern, featuring a quadrant shower, corner sink with vanity unit, and a cassette porta-potty toilet, offering all the essentials in a neat and efficient space.
At the bow, the bedroom provides a calm and comfortable retreat, with a fixed double bed, overhead storage cupboards, drawers below, and both 12-volt and USB sockets for convenience. This space is well suited for longer stays aboard, offering generous storage and a practical layout.
With four berths in total, a cruiser stern for sociable outdoor space, and a smart reverse layout, Maple is a versatile narrowboat ideal for leisure cruising, holidays, or comfortable extended stays on the water. Her recent updates make her a turn-key option for buyers looking for a well-presented, easy-to-enjoy boat.
