King-Hooton House is a historic home in Pensacola, Florida. It is located at 512–514 North Seventh Avenue. Built in 1871 by a local carpenter for Margaret E. King, a prominent late 19th‑century real estate figure, the house is a one-and-a-half-story frame vernacular building with an attached kitchen wing. It was a single dwelling originally and was converted into a duplex in the mid-1950s.

The house features three interior, stuccoed brick chimneys that rise through the front gable roof; an inset porch at the main entrance; and an attached hip-roofed porch on the south side. The eaves have paired brackets. A bay window dominates the front, and most windows are wooden double-hung 6/6 sash, with two jib windows. Sixteen pairs of original wooden louvered shutters remain intact and operable.

The King-Hooton House was added to the National Register of Historic Places on August 23, 1991. The property covers less than one acre.
