1980 Airstream Excella II 31 - Maine

Dream of days spent in the quiet of nature with elegant accommodations that you cannot find anywhere else?



La Vida the life, in Spanish, our Airstream Excella II was one of only 100 made in 1980 and spent its first few decades in Texas. In 2016, La Vida was moved to Maine. Nearly everything has been refreshed or replaced over several years with professionals involved at every step of the way.

With the DC powered refrigerator, LED Lights, elegantly attractive composting toilet, and expanded gray water waste tank capacity, this is the perfect set up to spend extended time off grid with modern luxuries. Add solar and you re ready for serious time away!

More renovation details are listed below.

We are selling La Vida as we are looking to downsize to an adventure set up that can be towed by a smaller vehicle.

A recent professional assessment valued La Vida at 80,000 for insurance purposes and well over that amount was invested in the renovation. If requested, we will share the details of the assessment with serious buyers.



Thank you! Jeremy and Becca
