    Welcome to this rare opportunity in Strawberry Hills of La Mesa, near Lake Murray. It's most distinctive of residences. This 4-bedroom, 2-bath townhome-style home offers 1,432 sq. ft. and a flexible multi-level layout found nowhere else in the community. Originally used as the builder’s sales office/model, it remains the only 4-bedroom floor plan of its kind in the complex. Upstairs, the home presents a remarkable showcase of Arts and Crafts–inspired Mission style, with rich woodwork, decorative glass accents, custom built-ins, exposed architectural details, and an exceptional level of craftsmanship and detail throughout. Nearly every inch of this has been touched & remodeled. The main living level also includes a spacious living room with vaulted ceilings, dining area, kitchen, two bedrooms, a full bath, and a balcony that sits amidst the trees and birds. Downstairs, two additional bedrooms, a second recently-remodeled full bath, kitchenette, and direct patio access create outstanding flexibility for extended family, guests, roommates, students, rentability, a home office, or a more private living arrangement. Additional features include an attached 2-car garage, mature landscaping, and a peaceful setting within the community. Strawberry Hills offers pools, spas, clubhouse amenities, and a convenient La Mesa location near Lake Murray, shopping, dining, schools, and freeway access. A truly unique home with character, craftsmanship, and versatile living space.
