Statesview
Statesview, or States View, is a historic house located on South Peters Road off Kingston Pike in Knoxville, Tennessee, United States. Built in the early 1800s by early Knoxville architect Thomas Hope and rebuilt in the early 1820s following a fire, Statesview was originally the home of surveyor Charles McClung (1761–1835). Following McClung's death, newspaper publisher Frederick Heiskell (1786–1882) purchased the house and estate, which he renamed "Fruit Hill."〔Nannie Lee Hicks, Mary Rothrock (ed.), "Some Early Communities," ''The French Broad-Holston Country: A History of Knox County, Tennessee'' (Knoxville, Tenn.: East Tennessee Historical Society, 1972), p. 334.〕 The house is listed on the National Register of Historic Places for its architecture and political significance.〔
==Design==
Statesview is a simple, two-story Federal-style brick house,〔 located on a wooded lot opposite the intersection of South Peters Road and George Williams Road. The house consists of a main section, a smaller (but still two stories) northeast wing, and a modern rear addition.〔 The main section consists of a central entry hall flanked by rooms on either side, with a staircase leading to the second story.〔 It is unknown how closely the current house, reconstructed following a fire in 1823, resembles the original house, or if it includes any part of the original.〔
