This custom home was designed and built for the actor Shephard Houghton and his wife in 1984. They would spend four or five months here each summer. In Shep's memoirs he writes "It's a beautiful home, with a view of sea and forest and [the public beaches in the Hoodsport area offer] lots of oysters, clams, shrimp, and salmon". Shep appeared in silent films as a youngster, and went on to appear in such films as "Gone with the Wind", "Showboat", "Red Badge of Courage", "Hello Dolly", "Hindenburg", and TV's "The Mary Tyler Moore Show", "Kojac", and "Star Trek", among others, before retiring in 1976. He was well-liked for his personality and work ethic and befriended quite a few Hollywood legends along the way, along with the close friendships he enjoyed in Hoodsport. Framed posters of some of his work are hanging in the game house.
