The Johnson-Neel House is a private historic house near Mooresville, North Carolina. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1975.[1]

It apparently was built in the 1826-1835 period, probably before 1830. Its construction is attributed to master builder Jacob Stirewalt. Features include a Federal-style stairway including tulip brackets. It also has a fireplace mantel that is very similar to one at Mill Hill, Stirewalt's home in Concord (also NRHP-listed).[2]
