Moonrise Estate has been known over many years for its ever changing vista across the Severnlea Valleys towards Girraween National Park. Turning into the property you wind through the timber and granite rocks before the country opens up to the view.The 5 bedroom homestead has been both a family residence and was utilised as a bed and breakfast over the years. This accounts for the 5 bathrooms and the large relaxed rooms throughout the home. The open fireplace in the lounge and timber stove in the kitchen reminds you that we are in Stanthorpe. The residence is in outstanding condition and presentation both inside and out being of a very high standard. The North East aspect allows full use of the verandah in all seasons. The homestead is set amongst formal gardens planted for low maintenance and drought tolerance. An organic and eco-friendly lifestyle and self-sufficiency was always very important to the owners and this can be seen though the vegetable gardens, fruit trees, water assets and solar power. The 72 acres has a spring fed dam on the Eastern side. The property has a natural North East gentle slope with natural timbered country on the Eastern and Western boundaries. These areas provide Land for Wildlife Sanctuary for an array of flora and fauna.
Moonrise Estate is also known for its wine, vineyard and cellardoor. There are 8 acres of vines of different varieties. Due to this the property has a large amount of sheds and buildings that could continue to be used as current or look at a different use in this organic self-sufficient environment. The property although secluded and very private is only 10 minutes to the schools and shops of Stanthorpe.
The decision to sell has happened quite quickly with the owners requiring moving closer to family. Trevor and Carol have listed Moonrise for sale for $995,000 which represents incredible value for a buyer looking for a very good property.
