Little Houghton House, Grade II* listed country house in Little Houghton, United Kingdom.
Little Houghton House stands as a three-story manor residence constructed with local stone, incorporating architectural elements from both the 17th and 19th centuries.
The Ward family built the initial structure in 1685 as a summer residence, following their support for James II of England during his reign.
The property represents the evolution of English country estates, with multiple generations of landowners serving as High Sheriffs of Northamptonshire through centuries.
The house spans 18,500 square feet across three floors, requiring specific permissions from local authorities for any modifications due to its protected status.
In 1825, Christopher Smyth transformed the building into a northeast-facing residence, marking a shift in architectural design preferences of that period.
