What an amazing opportunity to build your lake-view, dream retreat nestled in the serene beauty of Julian's Lake Cuyamaca's neighborhood. Clean, free of debris, and ready to rebuild, the current owner had plans to build a stunning, fire-safe home built into the hillside of North Peak, overlooking panoramic views of Cuyamaca Lake State Park, the mountains of the Cleveland National Forest and Anza Borrego Desert. A contemporary-rustic style would set the tone for this 2,000 sqft Eco-Lodge, featuring two primary bedroom suites, a spacious, open-floor kitchen and family/dining room w/ fireplace that opens out onto a large view deck. An attached 2-car garage and studio (potential 3rd bedroom) would be tucked neatly below. More in supplement...
This mountain retreat would serve as true destination lodging for those coming to enjoy all that the San Diego mountains have to offer. Conveniently located near numerous trailheads, parks and historic downtown Julian, CA the plans come with sustainable design features that include: Passive solar heating and cooling design, solar roof panels, a rainwater catchment & greywater reclamation systems for irrigation, Earth-bermed NW corner to block prevailing winter winds, efficient radiant floor heating, and super-insulated walls & roof assembly. Once a charming wood-shingled A-Frame structure, this property holds a story of resilience and potential. While the original structure met its unfortunate fate in the 2003 “Cedar Fire,” the land itself remains full of promise and possibility.
