Batchelder House, Arts and Crafts residence in Pasadena, United States.

The Batchelder House is a large bungalow at 626 South Arroyo Boulevard in Pasadena, designed and built in 1910 by Ernest A. Batchelder and his wife Alice Coleman. Its "woodsy" design borrows elements of the Swiss chalet style. Batchelder's first craft shop occupied part of the structure, where decorative tiles were made for Greene and Greene, the Heineman Brothers and other local architects.

Ernest A. Batchelder designed and built the house in 1910 as his home with his wife Alice Coleman, a musician. Its first craft shop produced decorative tiles for Greene and Greene, the Heineman Brothers and other local architects. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places on December 14, 1978, and forms part of the Lower Arroyo Seco Historic District.

The house was a centre of Pasadena cultural life in its day. Alice Coleman, an accomplished musician, used a stage in the backyard to host chamber music concerts. Batchelder's first craft shop also operated in the structure, producing decorative tiles for Greene and Greene, the Heineman Brothers and other local architects.

The property remains a private residence and is protected under National Register of Historic Places guidelines, meaning any alterations require official approval. Visitors can view the exterior and gardens from the street but should not enter the grounds.
