Set above rolling pastoral meadowlands, Oak Ridge Vista offers a rare blend of privacy, craftsmanship, and timeless backcountry beauty across approximately 10 oak-studded acres. Surrounded by majestic manzanita, Engelmann and black oaks, and framed by expansive pastoral views stretching into preserved ranchland, this thoughtfully designed estate captures the essence of refined rural living—where quiet mornings, open skies, and golden sunsets define each day.
The turnkey ~1,935 sq ft residence—featuring 2 bedrooms, 2 baths, and a dedicated home office or optional third bedroom—has been fully remodeled to create an open, light-filled interior where oak hardwood and tile flooring meet expansive windows, French sliding doors, and a warm, inviting fireplace. Refined finishes, maple cabinetry, and stainless-steel appliances complement the functional layout, while the spacious primary suite offers a private ensuite retreat.
Outdoor living is equally compelling, with a covered porch providing shaded comfort and a separate sitting area perfectly positioned to take in sweeping sunset views. The grounds are enhanced by natural rock outcroppings and meticulously maintained landscaping, creating both visual impact and usable space—ideal for gardening, small-scale agriculture, or simply enjoying the natural surroundings.
A 2-car attached garage is complemented by an impressive ~2,000 sq ft barn/workshop—accommodating up to six additional vehicles—with 200-amp service, a full bathroom, and unfinished attic space for future expansion.
Well-appointed infrastructure includes a private well, 5,000-gallon holding tank, dual septic systems, full RV hookups, stubbed utilities for a future ADU, owned propane, a whole-house ozonator system, and a 22kW backup generator. Built with Hardie board siding, a concrete roof, and fire-resistant materials, and fully fenced with multiple potential building sites, this property offers a rare combination of durability, flexibility, and enduring natural beauty.
Beyond the gates, the lifestyle continues. Just minutes away, the historic mountain town of Julian offers a charming blend of gold rush heritage, boutique shops, local wineries, and renowned apple orchards. Spend weekends exploring nearby hiking and riding trails in Cuyamaca Rancho State Park, Volcan Mountain Preserve, and the Cleveland National Forest, or enjoy horseback riding, cycling, and nature walks right from your doorstep. Seasonal experiences—from apple picking and cider pressing to star-filled night skies and crisp mountain air—create a true four-season escape within San Diego County.
Whether envisioned as a full-time residence, weekend retreat, or legacy property, Oak Ridge Vista delivers a rare opportunity to live immersed in nature without sacrificing comfort, access, or lifestyle.
