The Graham House is a dramatic Modern house designed by architect Eliot Noyes for Manhattan art dealer Robin Graham and built in 1968-69. The house is located at the crest of a rocky outcrop in a rural section of Stamford, Connecticut. It represents the culmination of a series of properties designed by Noyes in which he developed the idea of having two stone walls forming a central hallway, with rooms cantilevered off the outside of those walls.[2]

The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1978.[1] In 2012, the house was protected by a preservation easement held by Historic New England.
