Many of us will reminisce about the ‘Red Rattlers’ a Tait Train that were the class of train we rode to school and work in. Doors open wind in our hair, great memories.
The trains were introduced in 1910, history lovers will enjoy this ‘482M carriage’, which was part of the 470-473M (double ended Motor cars) series. This full carriage still highlights original fixtures, ornate pressed tin and timber work, guards/driver fittings and much more.
Today it is a functional home comprising from deck, two bedrooms, a spacious open plan living/dining room, a fully renovated bathroom/laundry combined with a luxurious deep bath (with a view), a shower, connections for a washing machine, also a separate toilet.
A central kitchen with electric stove, rangehood and cosy meals area with original bench seat.
Outdoors the entire carriage is protected by a full-length roof, there is a garden shed (station house), a double carport, two separate entrances and parking for a boat/caravan. Minutes to Cockatoo Township.
This wonderful would surely be a talking point amongst family and friends, you may even like to investigate the suitability for AIRBNB (subject to council approval).
The setting here is peaceful and private, you occasionally hear the iconic ‘toot’ of Puffing Billy chugging along nearby.
