An award-winning Airbnb is on the market. But there's a catch

Nestled on a farming property in Quandary, a small village between Ariah Park and Temora in NSW's Riverina, is a unique rural retreat where husband and wife, Lyndsay and Rita Bromfield, operate Country Carriage Bed and Breakfast.

On the property are two heritage train carriages that have been turned into Airbnbs, with Mr and Mrs Bromfield now looking for a new home for one of them. "The Overlander".

Miller and James Real Estate Temora agent Jess Stewart said there has been a lot of interest in the carriage from all over the country.

"I've been contacted by people from everywhere," she said.

"Even as far as Western Australia.

"I received a call from a fellow who owns a pub in Victoria who thought it could be a really cool addition to their accommodation.

"Another fella from Victoria called and he thought it might make a really good pizza shop.

"I've had calls from people locally, it's been interesting."

The Airbnb sleeps up to six people, with one full bathroom, a second toilet, living room space and a kitchenette.

It also has two reverse-cycle air conditioners, and Mr and Mrs Bromfield are happy to pitch in with some of the relocation costs.

"We're pretty keen to move it on," Mrs Stewart said.

"There is the option there to purchase it with all of the antique furniture which was actually Lindsay's mum's furniture."

The Bromfields have had the carriages for more than two decades and initially imported them from across the country.

"They're farmers and they have two carriages, so they are just selling the one," Mrs Stewart said.

"They're really, really lovely people."

While there has been an influx in inquiries regarding the sale, Mrs Stewart said there are a few practical steps a buyer would have to take, such as organising the relocation and getting council approval.

"It's not every day you get to stay in a train carriage," she said.

"It will be interesting to see where it gets to."

The person who purchases the carriage will have to have a property to put it on.

"It is a long carriage," Mrs Stewart said.

"It's 26 metres long with the stairs at each end, which we can remove, and council approval is another thing, and getting a septic tank set up."

In Mrs Stewart's 14 years as a real estate agent, this is the first time she has ever managed the sale of a train carriage.

"I've been in the industry for 14 years and I've had some interesting stuff but I've never had to sell a train carriage," she said.
