Description: Step into a lifestyle as unique as it is enchanting with this impeccably converted Hitachi motor carriage, originally built for the Victorian Railways and in service from 1981 to 2004. Once powering along metropolitan lines, this extraordinary carriage now sits proudly on over 2 acres of tranquil bushland in the charming Sarsfield community - just 10 minutes from Bairnsdale, 3.5 hours from Melbourne, and central to the rivers, lakes, mountains and beaches that make East Gippsland one of Victoria's most beloved regions. Painstakingly crafted and refurbished to the highest standards, the carriage offers a surprisingly spacious and beautifully finished interior. The original driver's cab, complete with controls, adds a touch of nostalgia and conversation-starting character, while the living space showcases modern comfort and thoughtful design. Inside, you'll find a generous bedroom area large enough for a king-sized bed, a stylish lounge and kitchen zone, and a well-appointed bathroom. Every detail has been considered, with premium appliances including an induction cooktop, downdraft rangehood, oven, built-in microwave, and even a dishwasher. The kitchen boasts a double sink, while the sleek bathroom features a toilet, basin, shower and provisions for laundry appliances as well. Comfort is assured year-round with a Daikin split system, instantaneous gas hot water, mains power, town water, and even a wood heater to keep things cosy on those crisp evenings. Outside, the bush block offers privacy, wildlife, space and serenity - the perfect canvas for outdoor living, creative pursuits, or simply unwinding in nature. Whether you're seeking a weekend escape, an artist's retreat, a quirky Airbnb opportunity, or a one-of-a-kind home, this is a property like no other. Unique. Beautiful. Unforgettable. Don't miss your chance to own a piece of Victorian Railways history in a postcard-perfect setting. View the Due Diligence Checklist: consumer.vic.gov.au/duediligencechecklist
