Built in 2011, this custom home is only 13 years old and boasts an exceptional level of quality and features. The description explicitly states 'no expense was spared in the design and construction,' which is evident in the gourmet kitchen with a commercial Wolf stove, custom alder cabinets, cement-stained countertops, and high-end appliances. Bathrooms are equally luxurious, featuring unique fixtures like a clawfoot tub and vessel sinks. High-end finishes such as hand-rubbed dark alder-stained plank flooring and extensive Venetian plaster throughout, along with modern amenities like solar, a full house generator, and advanced water systems, indicate a property that meets the highest current quality standards with no deferred maintenance. The property is move-in ready and presents as virtually new in terms of its custom build and meticulous upkeep.
Pros & Cons

High Available Lot Utilization: The property has a large lot size, which is more than 4 times of its living area. lot size in square feet = 47000, living area = 3650.
Luxury Custom Finishes & Appliances: No expense was spared in design and construction, featuring a gourmet kitchen with commercial Wolf stove, custom alder cabinets, cement-stained countertops, hand-rubbed dark alder flooring, and over $250,000 in Venetian plaster finishes.
Energy Efficiency & Self-Sufficiency: Equipped with solar panels, a full house generator, dual-paned UV-tinted windows, a Tec Shield radiant barrier roof, and a rainwater collection system with a 4000-gallon tank, significantly reducing utility costs and increasing resilience.

Enhanced Safety & Fire Suppression: Includes a 5000-gallon water tank with a pressure booster for fire suppression and is located within the Pine Hills Water District, providing peace of mind in a rural setting.

Cons

Highly Specific Aesthetic: The extensive use of Venetian plaster and specific wood finishes, while high-end, represents a very particular design taste that may not appeal to all potential buyers, potentially narrowing the market.
Reliance on Alternative Heating Sources: Primary heating appears to rely on a pellet stove in the master and a wood-burning stove in the living room, which may be less convenient than a central heating system for some buyers, and no central AC is mentioned.
Niche Market Location: Located in Julian, a more remote, rural area, which, while offering tranquility and natural beauty, may limit the buyer pool compared to properties in more accessible or urban-adjacent locations.
