I will shed my little knowledge on this:
1. Sorry to say this but A decent starter is a relevant term which depends on many things. If you want to go ahead with this scope make sure you are happy with the weight and size of the scope. Newtonians can be heavy and might require the some heavy lifting during set up.
2. Moon filter will give you greater detail in bright areas of the moon and barlow will magnify image for planetary observation (diffrent scope will have diffrent magnification limit). I would say they are useful items to have in the kit.
3. My suggestion will be dont buy it all together as bulk. buy each item only once you realize the need and only after you have done some research....local astronomy clubs are very helpful on this aspect.
4. I would say choosing the right mount for your requirements is the most important thing and a good mount may cost way more than a decent scope.
