William E. Mohler House, also known as "Hill Grove," is a historic home located at St. Albans, Kanawha County, West Virginia. It was built about 1900, and is a 2 1/2-story, frame rectangular dwelling with a corner tower in the Queen Anne style. It sits on a stone foundation. It has a complex roof of multiple gables, with four colossal paneled brick chimneys. The upper most floor houses a ballroom. It was built by William E. Mohler, president of the area's largest lumber company. The property was sold for use as a church in 1965, and occupied by Covenant Presbyterian Church when listed in 1983.[2] In 1992, Covenant Presbyterian Church moved to Nitro, West Virginia.[3]

It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1983.[1]
