The coupled cluster method (CCM) is applied to the spin-one anisotropic Heisenberg antiferromagnet (HAF) on the square lattice at zero temperature using a new high-order CCM ground-state formalism for general quantum spin number ($s \ge 1/2$). The results presented constitute the first such application of this new formalism, and they are shown to be among the most accurate results for the ground-state energy and sublattice magnetisation of this model as yet determined. We ``track'' the solution to the CCM equations at a given level of approximation with respect to the anisotropy parameter, $\Delta$, from the trivial Ising limit ($\Delta \to \infty$) down to a critical value $\Delta_c$, at which point this solution terminates. This behaviour is associated with a phase transition in the system, and hence a primary result of these high-order CCM calculations is that they provide an accurate and unbiased (i.e., {\it ab initio}) estimation of the position of the quantum phase transition point as a function of the anisotropy parameter. Our result is, namely, that this point occurs at (or slightly below) the isotropic Heisenberg point at $\Delta=1$, for this model.
