A “completely unique” property offering exceptional views of Australia’s hot air balloon capital has hit the market.
“Upper Green Farm” at Canowindra has been listed with Ray White Rural Emms Mooney. The property comprises 21 hectares with four dwellings totaling 13 bedrooms and 11 bathrooms.
The farm features rolled lawns which can be used as croquet lawns or a golf putting green; plus there’s a tennis court and a mowed cricket oval.
Selling agent Josh Keef said the property had no direct comparables in the Central West.

“We’ve sold substantial homes on large acreages for up to $2 million but this property is just completely unique. As such the owners are looking at all reasonable offers,” Mr Keef said.
“It would suit a buyer looking for a prestigious property or someone that wanted to run a bed and breakfast business to cater for the strong demand for boutique accommodation in the Central West.”
“Upper Green Farm” is well-equipped for pilots of all descriptions.
The farm has a hot-air balloon and helicopter landing pad. There is a 400 metre-long air strip and a 24mx12m aeroplane hangar which can accommodate two planes. A second hangar can house a third plane.
The flight from Sydney to the Canowindra farm takes just one hour and twenty minutes in a single engine Cessna plane.
In the past the aeroplane hangar has been used to host weddings and other functions of up to 100 people. It even has a bar area, dance floor and a raised stage area.
The longtime owners of “Upper Green Farm”, who did not wish to be named for this story, have used it as a rural getaway.
Mr Keef said the property had been meticulously cared for by a manager.
“Upper Green Farm” has a multitude of tank water storage, totaling 308,000 litres.
Stock and domestic bore supplies provide ample water for the grounds.
Some of the farm is sown to a healthy stand of lucerne. In the past the owners have grazed a handful of sheep.
Mr Keef said “Upper Green Farm” was suitable for subdivision.
