Portland House, Grade II listed building in Weymouth and Portland, United Kingdom.

Portland House features whitewashed rendered walls, a Roman tile hipped roof with deep eaves, and metal casements with rounded heads and leaded panes.

The structure was constructed between 1816 and 1835, marking a period of architectural development in Weymouth during the early nineteenth century.

The building reflects Mediterranean architectural influences through its design elements, including stone Doric columns and loggias on the projecting lower ground level terrace.

The house consists of two single-story ranges on sloping terrain, with the upper section accessed from the rear and the lower section containing the main rooms.

A stone tablet on the exterior displays the names of the patron, architects, and builder, providing direct connection to those involved in its creation.
