The Residency, Penang, Colonial official residence in George Town, Malaysia.

The Residency, officially Seri Mutiara, is a mansion on Western Road designed by British engineer Maurice Cameron and completed in 1890. Its central tetrastyle portico and pediment recall the Town Hall, while the verandah runs to the sides toward the garden and a balustraded roofline hides the roof. The grounds cover 8.4 ha between Western, York and Ross roads.

The Residency was designed by British engineer Maurice Cameron and completed in 1890, replacing Suffolk House as the governor's residence; the site had been chosen in 1886 during a visit by Straits Settlements Governor Frederick Weld. Its first occupant was Allan Maclean Skinner, Resident Councillor of Penang. After Malaya's independence in 1957 it was renamed Seri Mutiara and kept its role as the head of state's residence.

The building now serves as the official residence of the Yang di-Pertua Negeri, Penang's head of state, and is known as Seri Mutiara. It hosts state ceremonies and official functions that shape the region's political and social life.

The residence hosts governmental functions and official ceremonies, with media regularly present to cover state events. Visitors should inquire in advance about touring possibilities, as the property primarily functions as a working official residence.

The property harbors a rare botanical collection that includes three baobab trees alongside Brazil nut, Indian ebony, and cannon-ball trees. This tropical assemblage creates an unusual garden landscape that many visitors overlook.
