The Pardee Home is a historic house in Oakland that once belonged to three generations of the Pardee family. Today it operates as a non-profit museum that presents more than a century of that family's history. The house is a well-kept example of Italianate architecture and holds several designations, including city landmark, California Historical Landmark, and a place on the National Register of Historic Places. Visitors can take guided tours, which usually run 60 to 90 minutes, and the site also hosts private tea parties, garden events, and rentals for celebrations.
