Property Description
Selling As-Is: Peaceful, secluded, beautifully renovated cozy cottage with kitchen open to living room, both bathrooms redone, three gas fireplaces, in living room and two that are wall-mounted in upstairs master bedroom (with cathedral ceilings) and bath. Besides the Master bedroom that takes up the entire upstairs, there is a smaller bonus room on the main floor for a guest room, office, den, etc. 40-year roof. Approximate 400+ sq.ft. walk-out basement, ready to be finished as you desire, with sliding glass doors to its own balcony. Balcony also at first floor; both balconies placed to take advantage of the close view of Volcan Mountain which is especially beautiful when snow-capped, then there's the tree-filled canyon below, and Salton Sea which can be glimpsed between and beyond multiple distant mountains. Birds, deer, wild turkeys, and other wild life abound along numerous trails for hiking on your own property that abuts BLM land for additional exploration. Following the trails, meandering downhill from your home, can lead you to the foot of the high desert canyon. Yet, out your front door is historic downtown Julian but just a few minutes away with a variety of restaurants, shops, a liquor store as well as two grocery stores. There's a gas station/convenience store in town too. Besides the adventures you can have out your own back door, there's Lake Cuyamaca to fish from (it's stocked) and boat in only 9 miles away and Mount Laguna State Park about 15 miles out. Beyond what the mountain life offers, if you're a desert dune-buggy enthusiast, Ocotillo Wells is less tha Selling As-Is: Peaceful, secluded, beautifully renovated cozy cottage with kitchen open to living room, both bathrooms redone, three gas fireplaces, in living room and two that are wall-mounted in upstairs master bedroom (with cathedral ceilings) and bath.

If you enjoy growing things, there are a variety of fruit trees in the front of the house (which currenty is waiting for your own landscape desig) and a fixer-upper greenhouse in the side yard. All in all, a great cottage home in a great location, perhaps your second home to get away and escape from the city, or to lease out as a profitable long-term or vacation rental.
