Description

The Historic Felker House in Dalton, Georgia, is a beautifully restored gem that harks back to the late 19th century. This Victorian-era residence, constructed from 1890-1892, is a testament to the city's rich history and its ties to the carpet industry, a vital aspect of Dalton's economic and cultural heritage. The Felker House is an embodiment of the region's past, offering a glimpse into a bygone era while also providing modern opportunities for its next owner. This home boasts 5 bedrooms, 3 full bathrooms, 2 half baths, 11 fireplaces, and 7,886 square feet, with every inch honoring the original architectural details of the home. The restoration of this home earned an Excellence in Historic Preservation Award from the Georgia Trust, with nearly $2M invested in the preservation efforts. Today, The Felker House offers a new owner a range of possibilities. It can serve as a magnificent primary residence, evoking the grandeur of the late 19th century, or be used for various commercial purposes, such as a boutique hotel, bed and breakfast, event space, or a headquarters for local businesses. Georgia's growing film industry provides endless opportunities for The Felker House to play a part in preserving the past through film. With its flexible zoning and prime downtown location in Dalton, The Felker House is an ideal place to live, work, and play, contributing to the ongoing revitalization of the city's historic center.
