Nestled along the scenic Highway 78 just minutes from Wynola and the historic gold-rush town of Julian, Cherish Hills Farm is a rare blend of mountain charm, modern comfort, and limitless potential. As you enter the 6.84 acre property, the land opens into peaceful terraces, each thoughtfully designed to embrace both beauty and function. A fully upgraded single-family residence sits at the heart of the property—warm, inviting, and perfectly suited for full-time country living, a desirable vacation rental or boutique retreat. From here, pathways meander past lush foliage and view-filled sitting areas, leading you across the acreage and inviting exploration. ~Just beyond the home stands an impressive 3,200-square-foot steel barn built in 2023—an open canvas for possibility. With soaring ceilings and wide access, it’s ready to become anything from an agri-tourism business, venue space, or creative studio to a hobby workshop, classic car space or animal facility. With A70 agricultural zoning and the L animal designator, the property offers rare flexibility—ideal for horses, farming projects, livestock, vineyards, orchards, or a variety of rural enterprises. A private well serves the property. ~Every corner of the estate offers something unique. A handcrafted rock cantina, lovingly restored, provides a charming bonus entertainment space—perfect for wine tastings, a speakeasy-style lounge, or memorable evenings with friends. A sparkling pond, carved gracefully into natural boulders, brings peaceful energy to the landscape. Nearby, a tiered turf entertaining area captures glowing sunsets and sweeping views over the rolling mountains beyond. As you wander along the network of scenic trails, you’ll discover a family fruit orchard and flat areas that invite dreams of expansion. ~With a septic layout for a future ADU, the property invites its next owner to add value, create income, or expand living space with ease. Cherish Hills Farm offers easy access, year-round usability, and incredible visibility, and is ideally positioned for lifestyle, legacy, and opportunity—one trail, one sunset, one gathering at a time.
