Houghton Estate, often simply called Houghton is an affluent suburb of Johannesburg, Gauteng, northeast of the city centre. Houghton has traditionally been informally divided into two areas: Lower Houghton, and Upper Houghton.

Lower Houghton is flatter and has a grid street pattern, with portions lying on both sides of the M1 freeway while Upper Houghton is the hilly southern portion located on a ridge. Upper Houghton has been declared a National Heritage Area.

There are few shops in Houghton itself, apart from those in petrol stations, but the area is close to several commercial nodes in Johannesburg, including those in Oaklands, Norwood, Killarney, Rosebank and Sandton.

The suburb, particularly Lower Houghton, is currently experiencing rapid redevelopment. Although many plots had already been subdivided in two, there is now a trend towards the development of cluster homes. Houghton has two golf courses and a large public park, The Wilds.
