Three separate cabins—including a full-time primary residence and two additional heated cabins—along with two wells, a year-round spring-fed pond, established orchards, raised garden beds, and a metal workshop with covered parking create the foundation for a remarkable family compound, private retreat, or self-sufficient mountain homestead. The primary cabin features solar as its main power source, complemented by operational hydroelectric and generator backup systems; the two additional cabins are generator-powered. Seasonal elderberries, native azaleas, wild berries, abundant wildlife, and other natural resources add to this extraordinary opportunity to own a private piece of California mountain history.

Gray fox, striped skunks, opossum, gray squirrels, white-nosed weasels, chipmunks, bobcat, and coyote are a few of the resident species. Three generations of children were raised on this property off-grid, making mud pies, stargazing, and listening to stories around the fireplace. There are numerous wild elderberry bushes for harvesting and making elderberry jam or syrup. The self-sustainable infrastructure includes a 3000-watt solar array charging the battery bank. The 24-volt battery bank consists of twelve 2-volt deep-cell flooded batteries; there are two Outback charge controllers, a Xantrex power inverter, and a hydroelectric and diesel generator backup power system.

Properties within walking distance of downtown are limited, making this an exceptional opportunity to enjoy the lifestyle, history, and investment potential that have made Julian one of Southern California's most beloved mountain communities.

Shelter Valley is a unique small community on the west side of Anza Borrego State Park in San Diego Co. It's about a 1.5 hour drive from San Diego, 15 miles from Julian. It's a high desert retreat from the city closer and cooler than Borrego Springs. Shelter Valley is surrounded by Anza Borrego State Park so no further growth is possible. It can also be reached coming from the San Bernardino area off Hwy 15 through Warner Springs, up from Ocotillo Wells on Hwy 8 or through Cuyamaca State Park or up from Ramona. It is a high desert environment though in centuries past was more habitable as shown by Indian relics found in the area. The ecology is dominated by cactus and open chaparral. Anza Borrego wildflowers in the spring are sensational. The old Butterfield Stage Coach route passed through Shelter Valley on the leg between Yuma and San Bernardino. John Butterfield Co. ran the overland trail from St. Louis, Missouri to San Francisco from 1857 to 1861. Afterwards local stage companies and the Wells Fargo Co used the old trail. At Scissors Crossing the S-2 Hwy doglegs around San Felipe Creek near where the adobe building that once was the San Felipe Station stood. Only a historical monument now marks this spot. The San Felipe Station was between the Vallecito Station 18 mile 'SE' and the Warner Ranch Station 16miles 'NW'. There are a few lost treasure stories associated with this route.4 Beds2 Baths1,891 Sqft1.10 Acres Residential
