Kateland is a historic house in unincorporated Grant Parish, Louisiana located about 4.6miles miles north of the town of Boyce in neighborhing Rapides Parish.

Built in c.1830, it is a rambling house started as an open dogtrot. It is the only known surviving antebellum structure in Grant Parish.

In the 1880s the dogtrot corridor was enclosed and the house was extended. A rear extension with a side gallery was built in about 1900, and that gallery was enclosed in the 1920s, when the front gallery's columns were also replaced.[1] [2]

The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places on April 12, 1984.
