About This Home
As of August 2023Julian Flat Top is for sale for the first time since it was built in 1964 by the current owner's father. The recent complete renovation offers a modern twist on this rustic two-bedroom cabin, you will enjoy the two outside decks, large modern windows, and a beautiful rock floor-to-ceiling electric fireplace. The second level offers a large bedroom and sleeping loft set up to enjoy the views from the beautiful new windows. The modern efficiency kitchen features solid-surface countertops and custom cabinets. The recent renovations include new dual-pane windows, cement siding, an electric fireplace, wood flooring, a paid-for solar system, and a high-end water filtration system. The double-story high ceilings in the living room that frame the rock electric fireplace are sure to impress—the large impressive dining area is perfect for entertaining family and friends. Since its renovation in 2018, the Flat Top cabin is currently a well-reviewed vacation rental, and is set up for that purpose and accommodates up to eight people comfortably. The hill where the family built the weekend cabin is affectionately named "Flat Top" because it was initially identified on the geodetic survey map as such—an official marker on the hilltop dated 1939 by Norman Glover, a licensed surveyor. In 1963 the family contacted the US Forestry Service and planted around 500 trees on the sparsely tree-studded property. The trees were provided by the Forestry Service free of charge and included Jeffrey Pines, Arizona Cypress, and Incense Cedar. These beautiful trees have grown to maturity, and present a beautiful canopy of shaded areas and tree-lined panoramic views that stretch across Volcan Mountain to southwestern skies. The family made many special memories by planting these gifted trees together. The comments from guests at the cabin include "peaceful and quiet, and secluded," which is an experience you will find at Julian Flat Top cabin. The cabin is within walking distance, about one mile and a half from the historic gold mining town of Julian, CA., and many local attractions, hiking trails, wineries, the wolf sanctuary, and more. It is about one mile to the beautiful Volcan Mountain Wilderness Preserve.
