🛶 2008 Airstream Safari 28’ SE – Spacious, Stylish & Road-Ready

Airstream Hunter presents this exceptionally maintained and thoughtfully upgraded 2008 Airstream Safari Special Edition 28’ Travel Trailer, located in Asheville, NC, stored under cover and ready to roll. With a clear North Carolina title, just two owners since new, and recent updates inside and out, this is a shining example of Airstream craftsmanship blended with modern convenience.

🧭 Special Edition Elegance Meets Travel-Ready Function

The Safari Special Edition in 2008 offered elevated finishes and thoughtful design touches.  The Safari SE combines the ruggedness of the Safari and design features such as riveted panoramic windows, interior aluminum skin, and recessed halogen lighting. The look is both understated and modern, perfect for the traveler who understands that being away from home doesn't necessarily have anything to do with roughing it. This 28-foot double-axle layout maximizes comfort and functionality for extended road trips or weekend getaways, offering sleeping for up to six.

Factory highlights include:

• Signature riveted aluminum exterior

• Panoramic front windows with wraparound vista views

• Polished aluminum interior trim

• Custom cabinetry with premium wood veneers

• Seamless vinyl flooring throughout the cabin (with indoor/outdoor carpet in bedroom area added later)

• Rear walk-around queen bed and center bath layout

• Factory Recessed Halogen Lighting with LED Upgrades

This model balances a residential feel with lightweight, towable performance — only 5,500 lbs. dry weight with a GVWR of 7,500 lbs.

🛏️ Sleeps Six Comfortably with Flexible Spaces

• Rear Queen Bed with upgraded mattress and walk-around access

• Front Ultraleather Sofa with high-end fabric converts to a full-size bed

• Mid-ship Convertible Dinette comfortably seats four and sleeps one adult or two small children

Original interior dividers and sliding doors offer privacy between sleeping areas, with modifications made to enhance space in the bathroom (door replaced with a curtain, easily reversible if desired).

🛠️ Interior Refreshed and Ready

This Airstream has seen a host of smart upgrades:

• New countertops, sink fixtures, and bathroom surfaces

• New Corian Countertops in Kitchen, Bathroom and Dining Table

• Updated upholstery, curtains, and Oceanaire blinds

• New refrigerator (2024) — dual mode (electric/propane)

• New ceramic toilet - 2025

• Convection toaster oven in place of factory oven

• Upgraded air conditioner with increased cooling power

• Water pump recently replaced

The kitchen features a full double-basin sink, gas cooktop, and microwave, with ample storage in factory cabinetry. A small leak near the shower door was previously repaired and dried thoroughly, with no current moisture or mold issues.

🔋 Off-Grid Power + Towing Confidence

• 30 Amp electrical service

• Propane furnace and space heater
