"Riverbend II" Dual Deck Queen Bed One Bath H/Boat

Riverbend II is a charming, well-maintained dual-deck pontoon houseboat offering a fantastic opportunity to embrace the river lifestyle at an affordable entry point. This character-filled vessel is ready to cruise and ideally suited to a holiday getaway, a relaxing weekend retreat, single or a couple's live-aboard river change.

Featuring generous hard covered fore and aft decks, sound stained timber decking, sturdy handrails and a gangplank, Riverbend II offers practical design with plenty of space. Bow and stern pump-out points add convenience, while the welcoming deckhouse features a central helm fitted with new Mercury instrumentation and controls,   Eagle depth finder, GME UHF radio and Pioneer stereo system. The open-plan living area includes a portside sofa bed, to cater for additional guests, TV entertainment and ample cupboard storage.

The well-equipped galley kitchen features a breakfast bar, Beachline four-burner stove with oven and grill, large Samsung fridge/freezer, Westinghouse microwave and pantry storage. Fujitsu reverse-cycle inverter air conditioning provides year-round comfort. Midship, you'll find a comfortable queen bedroom and a spacious tiled bathroom complete with a moulded shower and bath, household flush toilet, vanity and shaving cabinets.

The covered stern deck is ideal for outdoor entertaining with a bar table, chairs, a BBQ and provisions for a washing machine. It also houses the vessel's electrical systems and provides access to the swim deck and elevated sundeck. The marine-carpeted sundeck is a standout feature, offering a wonderful space to enjoy panoramic river views and the surrounding landscape, with the potential to add a hard-covered roof for all-season enjoyment.

Riverbend II is equipped with 240V shore power and a small off-grid electrical system featuring a Sinus Trekka 1,300 inverter, BP solar controller, two solar panels and two new Motive house batteries. A generator connection point is ready for use. Additional features include a Rinnai Infinity 18 gas hot water system, waste and greywater tank storage compliant to marina requirements, and registration until June 2027.

Propulsion comes from twin Mercury 20hp four-stroke outboard motors, newly fitted in August 2026 and with only four hours of use. Together, these motors comfortably cruise the vessel at 8 km/h, while the generous 400-litre fuel tank provides an impressive cruising range for exploring the river.

Last out-of-water inspection completed in August 2026 at the Long Island Slipway. The pontoons were machine-cleaned and recoated with Intertuf, and the engine mounts were modified. A new insurance risk assessment has been completed and passed. Electrical, Gas, and EPA compliance certificates are in place, and the vessel is currently insured with QBE.

Located in the lower Murray River region at a secure Riverglen mooring, which is available subject to application and approval, is also live-aboard friendly. Offered on a walk-in, walk-out basis, excluding personal items, this is an appealing opportunity to secure a well-equipped, cruising-ready houseboat.

Whether you're dreaming of peaceful river holidays, weekend adventures or a change of lifestyle on the water, Riverbend II is ready to make it happen.
