W. Heartfield for $5,000.","why_significant":"The nomination cites its elaborately carved interior woodwork and its value as a good example of an early 20th-century transitional house form, of which only one other, less refined, example exists in Chappell Hill. It is also tied to the Felders, an early and prominent local family in the lumber and hardware business. Its intact landscaped lot is described as rare.","narrative":"Built in 1910 on Haller Street in Chappell Hill, this one-and-a-half story frame house blends Queen Anne and Colonial Revival features. J. W. Heartfield constructed it for $5,000 as the home of King Felder and his wife Mattie Cocke, who married in 1903. An encircling porch with tapered Doric columns wraps the front, and a chamfered gabled bay with scroll brackets projects on the north end. Inside, the main hallway features an archway carved with scrolls and garlands, supported by Corinthian columns on coffered pedestals. Felder's family ran a lumber and hardware business, and the house was built with pegged construction using fine local lumber. The exterior remains nearly unchanged from an early photograph, and the large landscaped corner lot keeps its original trees. The house is recognized for its architecture and workmanship, for its rare surviving setting, and for its link to a prominent Chappell Hill family whose business supplied lumber to many of the town's early 20th-century residences.","period_of_significance":"1900-","architect_builder":"J.
