Description

Whether you're seeking a peaceful escape, a savvy investment, or both—this one-of-a-kind cabin delivers! This unique 2-bedroom, 2.5-bath cabin sits on a generous 1.85-acre lot, offering the perfect blend of privacy, character, and income potential. Crafted with hand-hewn beams and timeless attention to detail, the home is as much a piece of art as it is a cozy mountain retreat. From the moment you step onto the welcoming covered front porch—complete with a swing bed for lazy afternoons and stargazing nights—you’ll be captivated by the warmth and charm this property radiates. Inside, the cabin features a rustic-modern vibe with an open-concept living space anchored by a stone fireplace and exposed timber beams that tell stories of old-world craftsmanship. The kitchen is equipped for both home cooking and guest stays. Outside, enjoy the serenity of your surroundings—towering trees, daffodils, lilacs, and the sounds of nature provide a tranquil escape from the bustle of city life. PROVEN INCOME POTENTIAL - This cabin isn’t just a getaway—it’s a high-performing Airbnb with over 300 glowing reviews and a track record of strong financial returns. Whether you're looking to continue operating it as a vacation rental or keep it as a private retreat with income on the side, the property comes fully equipped and ready to go, including owned solar. Only a short drive to Julian’s charming Main Street, apple orchards, hiking trails, and local wineries, this property offers a rare mix of mountain seclusion and easy access to everything that makes Julian a beloved destination. Julian is a charming historic town nestled in the Cuyamaca Mountains, about an hour east of San Diego. Known for its small-town charm, gold rush history, and famous apple orchards, Julian is a popular getaway for those looking to enjoy fresh mountain air, scenic landscapes, and a slower pace of life. Real estate in Julian ranges from historic cabins to modern mountain retreats, making it an ideal location for those looking for a peaceful, nature-filled lifestyle with easy access to San Diego.
