Stanthorpe Hidden Treasure
271 Ellwood Road, Applethorpe A Private Country Estate with Endless Possibilities
Set on approximately 16 hectares (39.5 acres) just 10 minutes from Stanthorpe CBD, 271 Ellwood Road is a truly distinctive rural retreat offering privacy, space and an exceptional sense of escape.
From the moment you leave the road and follow the private gravel driveway into the property, the feeling changes. The surrounding landscape opens into a secluded country setting of rolling open fields, rugged native bushland, established trees and granite outcrops, creating an atmosphere that feels remarkably private and almost entirely your own.
At the heart of the property is a thoughtfully positioned two-bedroom residence, complimented by two separate bush cabins, each enjoying its own individual setting and outlook. Whether envisioned as a private family retreat, guest accommodation, a country getaway or a property with further lifestyle potential, the possibilities are considerable.
The Main Residence
Purpose-built as a shed-style residence, the main home has been carefully positioned amongst native and deciduous trees and enjoys a desirable north-easterly aspect.
Open verandas extend along two sides of the home, creating wonderful spaces to take in the changing Granite Belt seasons. Winter brings beautiful natural light and warmth, while the surrounding trees provide shelter and shade through the warmer months.
Inside, the home offers a generous open-plan kitchen, dining and living area, two bedrooms, bathroom and additional storage room.
The kitchen features ample cabinetry and gas cooking, while reverse-cycle air conditioning provides year-round comfort. The property is connected to mains electricity and also benefits from a solar grid system.
A Collection of Private Retreats
Adding another dimension to the property are two separate bush cabins, each positioned to provide a distinct sense of privacy.
Bush Cabin One is a charming timber structure overlooking the open paddocks and surrounding bushland. It features a bedroom, spacious open-plan living, kitchen and dining area, bathroom and a generous outdoor deck — an ideal place to sit back and enjoy the peace and changing seasons.
Bush Cabin Two occupies an especially tranquil position overlooking one of the property's dams. With its own private outlook, this partially completed cabin offers open-plan living, kitchen and bedroom space, bathroom and utility room, together with two rainwater tanks, pressure pump, power and carport.
Its unfinished state presents an opportunity to complete and personalise the space according to your own vision.
Water & Infrastructure
Water security is another significant feature of this property.
Approximately 100,000 litres of rainwater storage is provided across six tanks, supplemented by two dams, one of which has power connected to a pump for garden use.
The property is further enhanced by substantial shedding and utility infrastructure, including a double lock-up garage, approximately 12m x 7m workshop, barn shed and chook run.
A Rare Country Lifestyle
The 16 hectares offer a wonderful balance of open country suitable for livestock and natural bushland, with granite outcrops adding character and a distinctly Granite Belt feel.
There is room here to slow down, spread out and create the lifestyle you've been dreaming of — whether that means keeping animals, establishing gardens, enjoying the bush, hosting family and friends or simply having the freedom that comes with owning a substantial private holding.
Yet despite the feeling of seclusion, Stanthorpe's cafes, shops, services and amenities are only around 10 minutes away.
A private rural sanctuary, multiple accommodation options, abundant water and substantial infrastructure — all within easy reach of Stanthorpe.
