About this property

Big 5bd Julian Country Home! 5min to downtown Julian, wineries, hiking.

3 Kings

1 Dbl sleeping futon
3 twins
5 TV's Views!!!!
You'll be marveled with this 5br/3ba Tudor home located minutes from downtown Julian, walking distance to Nichol Brewing Company ( a local favorite) and 3 miles from Julian tasting wineries. Views galore of the town from the decks and upper bedroom, and you can access the Old Banner grade hike from the house.

As you walk in the front door, you're greeting with a grand hallway/mudroom with iron chandelier, a large buffet and and entry that leads into the Great Room.. 26 foot beamed ceilings, dormers , and huge chandeliers adds a dramatic effect but comfortable setting.

The main floor has a kitchen, dining, 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, and deck. The kitchen has a gas stove, lots of cupboards and counter space and is supplied with everything you'll need to cook your favorite meals and then some. The dining consists of a large table with scattered pillows that doubles as the perfect place to relax while watching the chef cook. It faces a bookcase with TV and overlooks the living area with massive 8 ft chandelier and wood burning stove. Next to the dining area is the sunny upper deck with bar stools and table overlooking views of Julian and oak trees.

Down the hall is 1/2 bath, full bathroom, 2 King bedrooms with 1 that has a shower, and is connected to the 1/2 bath. The beds and linens are hotel quality with 4 pillows on each bed and plisse. All bedrooms have windows, ceiling fans and gets plenty of fresh air. The whole floor overlooks the living area with views of the outdoors. The living area comes with games, more books, large overstuffed sectional, another TV and wonderful wood burning stove with 2 windows that look out to the sunny deck with views of the surrounding trees. The deck has dining table and propane BBQ.

Got kids??? They will love the media room with 60 inch TV. All the TVS have Roku, YoutubeTv, Netflix, Amazon Prime and all you'll need is your codes to access unlimited entertainment. Wi-fi in ATT Uverse and all TV's are connected. Here there is a bunk bed , a trundle bed with 2 twins beds, and a dbl size futon couch/bed.
Sleep, watch, play games etc... its separate from the living areas so adults can have adult time anytime.

Off the hallway by front door there is another section of the house that you can access either in the hallway or with the separate entrance outside. Here you'll find 2 more bedrooms... 1 large room with gas fireplace, AC, TV, VIEWS!! high beamed ceilings and 2 queen beds. Lots a room and another great place for kids to hang out away from the adults.
Next to this room is the Master bedroom with King bed that is attached to a large bathroom with 2 sinks and a large bathtub. The perfect antidote after a long day hiking or exploring Julian. There are 3 AC units in the house to keep it cool.
There is a large garage for your use, along with a big fenced shaded dog yard that is perfect for your pets. The grassy front yard is a great place to play bocce ball, have a small event, or just sit at the table away from it all.

There are plenty of areas in the house to spread out with privacy and separation between rooms.

This is a true Country Home, that will add to all the memories of your Julian vacation.

Great property

We loved this property. It was really large and private with plenty of room to expand. We loved the addition 2 bedroom/master bath combo with the sliding barn door. It was the perfect place to stick the X box crew in so they could yell and scream and game to their hearts content without driving the rest of us nuts.The location was perfect, Sandy the host was very responsive. We will definitly stay here again!

Beautiful spacious home

Our family loved this home for our weekend stay here in Julian. Its a beautiful house with plenty of room for my 5 grandchildren. I loved the large room for the kids to sleep in and hang out in. The beds were comfortable and that alone is the most important thing for me. The kit hen was well equipped. My daughters and i cooked together and we had everything we needed. We would love to stay here again.

Privacy in a beautiful neighborhood

We loved the house and the property. So much indoor and outdoor gathering space. The house was very well appointed. The beds were comfortable. Beautiful views. Trees and vegetation made for lots of privacy. A very quick drive to downtown Julian. We brought our kids and their friends, and everyone had a space of their own.

Great place to relax.

This was a great place for us to hold our business retreat. It allowed for a more inclusive and intimate setting where we had plenty of space to stretch out and support the participants as they designed their next steps to make an impact in the world. Everyone slept well, there was plenty of hot water and towels, and the views were beautiful.

A+ House

10 of us stayed at Sandy's place and we loved it. Plenty of room in the house, the beds were comfortable, kitchen had everything we needed and the location was perfect. There are lots of area to relax and the layout gave us quiet areas to zoom. We walked from the house to the Banner trail, and 1 day we walked to town. The house was clean, and we enjoyed the views from the deck. We will definitely stay here again.

Comfy and Cozy

Our Daughter was getting married in Julian, at Sacred Mountain, so we needed a place that was big enough for us and all of our family members that flew in from many places and this place was Perfect! We were very relaxed and comfortable here. Plenty of beds and bathooms and we were all very comfortable! The house was clean, cozy, and relaxing! The views were a bonus and the neighbohood is very peaceful. We all loved this place and we really enjoyed our stay!

Great Place for a group to stay

This is a beautiful property! My husband and I used it for the weekend of our daughter's wedding and we housed 4 other couples-- family and those who are our chosen family. It's spacious, yet cozy, and we all had a wonderful time. The only issue for some was that we couldn't get the internet to work, but it was a minor issue and felt good to be unplugged for a bit. The property owner is so easy to work with and you can tell she takes pride in her property. A word to the wise: the driveway is very steep. We would definitely stay here again!

Cozy stay

The property was very clean when we arrived. There had been que a bit a now but, everything had been shoveled and ready when we got there. The neighborhood was very peaceful and pleasant. The house was older but had a lot of character and was very spacious. Pretty much everything you need for cooking or baking was available. We very much enjoyed our stay and the snow!
