Introducing the historically designated Harry Turner/Bristow & Lyman House, a 1914 residence with Mills Act reflecting an interpretation of Prairie School architecture with Spanish Renaissance influence. The home is situated on a double corner lot with alley access in San Diego's North Mission Hills neighborhood. From the street, the home presents with the low-pitched rooflines and broad eaves characteristic of Prairie architecture, while a wraparound landscape reveals a series of outdoor spaces, including a 30-foot linear fountain, gardens, multiple verandas, and a pavilion with fireplace. The interior retains significant character, including leaded glass windows and doors, wood floors, and extensive built-ins, with natural light introduced through oversized windows. The home functions as a single-story, anchored around a fireplace-centered living room that transitions to the dining room, with built-ins, french doors, and a bay window overlooking the garden. The kitchen connects directly to the veranda and was reconfigured to adjoin a family room adapted from the original third bedroom. A library sits adjacent to the living room and transitions to the primary suite, while a secondary ensuite bedroom completes the main level. The lower level provides additional flexibility with an office, bedroom or secondary living space, full bath, laundry, and a finished basement. The garage allows for pull-through access from the driveway or alley. The home offers a compelling opportunity for a buyer to further enhance the interiors while preserving its architectural integrity. Mission
