Tucked into the storied hills of Julian, California — where venturers sought fortunes in the gold rich mountains — sits a rare gem of a property. Just under 1.5 acres of flat, workable land cradles a boutique Cabernet Sauvignon vineyard and two cabins. Auric Vineyard sits above Lake Cuyamaca and is just a 15-minute drive from the water front! The cabins anchor the property with rustic charm and mountain simplicity, while the vineyard stretches out in neat rows. This property offers an 864 square foot 2-bed 1-bath main cabin and a 400 square foot detached loft (with a full bath and kitchenette). The 864 square foot basement of the main cabin offers potential for living space, space for a workshop or wine processing. The cabins are powered by an owned solar system with 16 panels, battery storage and a generator back-up – with a wind turbine capable of being installed. A well waters the vineyard and provides water to both cabins with a 5,000 gallon water tank! Julian’s legacy is written in gold, but its future is waiting to be written. This property sits at that exact intersection — history beneath your feet and potential at your fingertips. There are possibilities to add more living space and detached workshops or garages. This property is perfect for a home, vacation rentals or combination of business and living!
