Robert R. Blacker House
Robert R. Blacker House, Arts and Crafts residence in Hillcrest Avenue, Pasadena, United States.
The Robert R. Blacker House features custom teak plates, mahogany doors, and handcrafted wooden details throughout its extensive interior spaces.
Built in 1907 for lumber industry magnate Robert Roe Blacker, this residence cost $100,000, equivalent to approximately $3.27 million in current value.
The property served as a filming location for Doc Brown's mansion in the movie Back to the Future, connecting architecture with cinema.
The residence remains private property with limited access, though occasional guided tours provide opportunities to examine its architectural elements.
The 1985 removal of original fixtures led Pasadena authorities to establish the Blacker Ordinance, protecting historical architectural elements in local buildings.
