You'd really want a siding with (RR-specific) electrical connections, no noisy/smelly industry next to you, decent views, an elevated platform, and some parking spaces.

They're darn rare, but do exist. If I was Old Money, I'd probably build more in a few in beautiful spots - and freely loan 'em to my peers, as a social networking thing.

There are houseboats as well.

    While generally more flexible and mobile - boats do suffer far more maintenance, navigation, safety, and weather issues than rail cars.

    Maybe try an RV?

      Houseboats don't generally move.

      No idea what the cost and maintenance costs are like. Have no interest in an RV/camper.
