About the host
Hosted by Priscilla Town

Both Mark and I (Priscilla) just love Julian! I am originally from Tijuana, Mexico raised in San Diego, my entire life (a local). Mark is a mid-western boy from Dayton, Ohio and YES O - H, I - O is a very common chant from Buckeye Fans or should I dare say Occult (LOL).
Why they chose this property
This is an enchanting story, we were visiting Julian in February of this year 2018 and saw the For Sale sign on this property and we thought WOW! Wouldn't that be awesome, but we were finishing up a renovation project at our home in Spring Valley. Then, 3 months later we were finished with our project and in the market. This home was no longer listed (figures I thought) such a beauty wouldn't remain on the market. We came out to view another home in the Julian area 6 miles out of town, but it was too woodsy for me, I figured something fersure would see me as a tasty morsel.
We then drove into Julian and stopped by the Real Estate office Julian Properties and met Rose. We looked at the listings and behold this home was listed! Woah...Rose explained the Listing had expired and was renewed that same day! THE ODDS! I thought, its meant to be. We then met Kirby Winn and Barbara Shor who then became our agents and we put an offer in that evening.
We were blessed with this purchase and thank God for this opportunity. This will become our future retirement home when the time comes. For now we are sharing this beauty with you. We have poured ourselves and our affection into this property to turn it into our home. We are positive you will feel the vibe and enjoy.

What makes this property unique
The fact that its just two blocks from downtown Julian is a mind blower and so convenient. Even when we are there we are just tickled by the convenience of walking down the hill to all the hub bub. The privacy you feel in our home is in how the property is situated up high on the hill surrounded by trees, every window in the house takes in the nature and fills the home with tranquility. The stars at night is a treat, even from your bedroom window, being from the city, you don't see this spectacular show unless there is a city wide blackout (how often does that happen).
