Stunning Mercedes Sprinter very light and airy space Conversion.


When converting this van we wanted a very light and airy space. We have four large windows fitted, on each side of the vehicle and two to the rear of the vehicle. Both side windows can be opened to cool and allow fresh air throughout. In addition, a skylight/deluxe Maxxair fan has been fitted in the roof. This provides 30% more light into the van as well as great ventilation, both in and out of the van. Along with the Maxxair fan, a 180watt solar panel is located on the roof, provide plenty of power for off-grid adventures.

All tires are in great condition and newly changed. The steel wheels are newly refurbished and resprayed in black Raptor paint finished in matt black. Matt's black decals are on both sides of the vehicle giving it a real stand-out classy look. To the rear of the vehicle is a large step with a tow bar.

A modern and newly converted Scandi style campervan custom built with a fresh feel and earthy tones used throughout.

The van walls, ceiling, and floor have been extensively insulated throughout, with the addition of Dodo sound deadening used on all vehicle panels. Pine tongue and groove cladding have been used throughout, stained, and treated with Danish oil. Any remaining exposed metal inside the van has been covered with carpet further helping prevent any condensation.

KITCHEN:

A spacious handcrafted L-shaped kitchen area, complete with bespoke units and storage using lightweight materials. Functionality and storage have been taken into account during the creation of this space. Storage includes large cupboard space, drawer unit, and overhead shelving. To make the best use of the space, there is a large countertop with a folding/extending benchtop near the gas hob, aiding in cooking and preparation. A dual ring gas hob and sink, along with a spice rack and magnetic knife bar finish the kitchen space off nicely.

The kitchen includes;

  • 27.5L chest fridge

  • Sink with electric pump

  • Dual ring hob

  • Chopping boards

  • Magnetic knife rack and knife set

  • Spice rack above the hob

  • Plenty under sink storage

  • 25L fresh water container

  • 25L bin

  • Door catches to stop doors opening during transit

  • Solid wood countertops finished with Danish oil

SHOWER:

There is a collapsable shower located in the bottom drawer of the kitchen – the drawer itself is pulled out to reveal the shower tray and is plumbed in to take wastewater directly out of the van. All plumbing is neat and done in such a way no pipes are exposed and offers full flexibility for the shower tray to open and close. Once the tray is open you simply hang the shower curtain from some discreet hooks purposely located around the ceiling extractor fan to prevent condensation. The shower is supplied from a refillable water source and works via a submersible pump. The shower curtain and shower fold away and are stored out of sight whilst not in use. This has offered a great use of space and the added bonus of having a fully functioning shower enclosure within the van, but not permanently taking up much-needed space.

LIVING SPACE:

Spacious seating area with two bespoke upholstered bench seat cushions, this seating area folds out into a single bed, with memory foam seat cushions that make up the mattress. A large solid wood pullout table is located between the two seats, very simple to pull out and push closed when not in use. Under both bench seats offer a large space (60cm x 60cm) for extra storage.

SLEEPING:

Full-size double bed (138 cm x 190 cm), slatted bed frame complete with a memory foam mattress. The bench seat (61 cm x 190 cm) is large enough to sleep a third person.

The electrical system includes:

  • 1 x 110 Ah leisure battery,

  • 180watt Solar panel

  • 240 V mains charger hook up installed discreetly in the garage area

  • Inverter with 2x 3 pin plug socket and double USB ports

  • 12 V double USB port which includes a battery voltage monitor.

  • 8 x 12 V ceiling spotlights on a dimmer switch.

  • 1 x 12V strip light within bed recess on a dimmer switch.

  • Large 75L Dometic fridge freezer

  • 27.5L Electric cooler 12V

The electrical system is compact and tidy, located within an electric cupboard in the garage area. Easily accessible from the rear doors.

WATER:

Under the sink houses one 25 liters fresh water tank and one 25 liter wastewater on quick release for ease of filling, emptying, and cleaning.

The water tank is extremely practical as this can be quickly removed and filled directly from a source of water and is easier to clean than a fixed tank.

GAS:

The gas bottle has a tie-down strap to stop any movement whilst driving and the required drop-out vent.

GARAGE STORAGE AREA:

This conversion was built with storage in mind. Under the bed, accessed from the rear doors, is a huge garage area that could house bikes, outdoor equipment, inflatable kayaks or paddleboards, etc.

ADDITIONAL STORAGE:

Above the bed are three cupboards ideal for clothes, books, and other items you may want quick access to. Under the two bench seats in the living area is additional storage as well. All of this storage allows your items to be stored in an organized and practical way.

SAFETY:

Carbon monoxide and smoke alarm. As well as a fire extinguisher located in the kitchen. A seatbelt cutter and window break are located in the drivers' cabin within easy reach.

The Mercedes Sprinter van is in excellent condition and considered to be the best and most reliable and sought-after van on the market. The van is super clean, fresh, and ready to go on any adventure you have in mind!
