Pardee Home, 19th century Victorian mansion and garden in Downtown Oakland, United States.

The Pardee Home is a three-story Victorian mansion preserved as a museum in downtown Oakland, with rooms arranged as they were during family occupation. Original furniture and personal possessions throughout the house document how residents lived and the interests they pursued.

Enoch H. Pardee, a California state senator, built the house in 1868; a Finnish source gives 1869. His son George Pardee, governor of California, inherited it and lived there until his death in 1941, when it passed to his daughters Madeline and Helen. They stayed until 1980 and 1981. The house was saved from demolition for Interstate 980 by conservationists and opened as a museum in 1991.

George Pardee's wife Helen filled the house with knick-knacks from around the world, among them scrimshaw from Alaska, tobacco pipes from the Philippines and a giant elk head. She enjoyed giving tours of the house herself to show visitors her collection. The furnishings are original, and the rooms appear as they did in 1981.

The house stands within Oakland's Preservation Park Historic District, and the original carriage house and stable still stand beside it. The museum opened to the public in 1991, so check current opening arrangements before travelling. The interior is the main attraction, with all furnishings original and the rooms arranged as they were in 1981.

The house was slated for demolition to build Interstate 980; conservationists' opposition saved it, and the route was changed. The original carriage house and stable still stand, and the whole complex lies within Oakland's Preservation Park Historic District. The museum opened to the public in 1991.
