Overview

Lifestyle Tree Change Opportunity with 4 Guest Cabins on Scenic Acreage

Set on a beautiful rural holding in Glen Aplin via Stanthorpe, this unique property offers a rare opportunity to secure a peaceful lifestyle retreat with established guest accommodation infrastructure already in place. Previously operated as holiday accommodation, the property includes four near-new, professionally constructed cabins, creating excellent potential for buyers seeking a work-from-home lifestyle with supplementary income opportunities. Importantly, the property is being sold as a residential holding only, as the former accommodation operation has now ceased. However, the infrastructure remains in place and presents a compelling opportunity for future owners wishing to explore guest accommodation, extended family living, creative retreats, or flexible rural lifestyle use. Equipment associated with the previous accommodation setup may be available by negotiation. Set within the scenic Granite Belt region and surrounded by natural beauty, the property combines privacy, views, and functionality with thoughtfully positioned cabins that are separated from the main residence to maintain both independence and tranquility. One of the cabins has been purpose-built with accessibility features, making it suitable for guests with mobility or wheelchair requirements—an increasingly sought-after inclusion in regional accommodation offerings.
