The Retan House is a historic house at 2510 South Broadway in Little Rock, Arkansas. It is a modest two-story frame structure, with shallow-pitch hip roof with broad eaves. A single-story porch extends across the front, with a broad gabled roof supported by stone piers. The entrance is on the left side, and there is a three-part window at the center of the front under the porch. Above the porch are a band of four multi-pane windows in the Prairie School style. The house was built in 1915 to a design by Charles L. Thompson, and is one of his finer examples of the Prairie School style.

The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1982.
