The Lightle House is a historic house on County Road 76 in White County, Arkansas, just north of the Searcy city limits. It is a single story wood-frame structure, with a side gable roof, a shed-roof porch across the front, and a central chimney. An addition extends to the rear, giving it a T shape, with a second chimney projecting from that section. Built about 1920, it is the county's only known surviving example of a saddlebag house.[1]

The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1992.
