W. E. Chilton II House is a historic home located at Charleston, West Virginia. It is a neo-Georgian stone house designed by nationally known architect William Lawrence Bottomley and built in 1933, for W. E. Chilton II and his wife Nancy Ruffner Chilton. The 2+1⁄2-story central block of the house is flanked symmetrically by single-story wings. In front of the west facade is a 90 foot by 90 foot walled forecourt paved in flagstone and Belgian block and cobblestones that were originally used on Philadelphia streets.[2]
