Strawberry Hill is a historic home located at Petersburg, Virginia. The original section was built about 1800, with a two-story central section flanked by one-story wings in the Federal style. It was subsequently enlarged and expanded through the early-20th century to be a rambling two-story, U-shaped frame building 90 feet long by 56 feet deep. The house was divided into three units in 1884.[3]

It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1974.[1] It is located in the Folly Castle Historic District.
