315 Mudfords Lane, Lansdowne, NSW 2430

Looking to escape to the country and avoid the mortgage cliff? Sell up the city cash killer, scale back the mortgage and enjoy something special? Not so much a flash modern house but something more traditional and special from "mother nature". Take a closer look at "Canowindra". My Vendor has loved this land from the first day she stood on it. and the house from the day she and her husband built it! Its easy to see why. You will never tire of the high flying eagles or the mountain views, all seen from from the sweeping wrap around decks of this convivial, comfortable homestead. Whether it be the variation of colour, as the sunset reflects of the sandstone of the escarpment, or the moody mist, as it shrouds the mountains and rainforest, creating spellbinding rainbows. "Canowindra" has been built with pride and passion, from solid and durable materials, by our Vendors, who were virtual pioneers on this land they loved.

For years they enjoyed the life of owning a lifestyle hobby farm. Raising chooks, collecting and selling the free range eggs in the local market, harvesting honey from their hives, fattening a few head of cattle. Riding their horses. The land is easy and undulating, lending itself to horses and Mudfords Lane is a quiet back water lane, that meanders up under the omnipresent magnificent (world renown) sandstone Lansdowne escarpment, with its majestic volcanic outcrops amid rolling green pastures and lush native vegetation. It is justly called "the Valley of views".

Life was good but the years have rolled by and its time to pass "Canowindra" on to new custodians. So what is on offer:
