42nd Annual House & Garden Tour

June 9, 2012 @ 10:00 AM - June 10, 2012 @ 4:00 PM

An Enclave of Elegance: From Council Rock to Grosvenor Rd.

Ticket Update: Online ticket sales have now ended, however, tickets are available in person at Parkleigh (215 Park Ave.) while supplies last. Tickets will also be available at Tour Headquarters (Baptist Temple Church, 1101 Clover St.) for $25, beginning at 9:30 AM on Saturday and Sunday.

What an exciting tour we have for you this year! Homeowners on Grosvenor Road, Pelham Road, Council Rock Avenue and Highland Avenue are opening their doors for you on Saturday and Sunday, June 9 and 10 from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.

This is a tour of surprises, sure to delight! A wood shingled house, a well kept but rather unassuming exterior; within elegantly designed formal rooms boasting the signature details of its prominent architect. A Craftsman-influenced house with massive exterior stucco piers: inside an impressive 3 story wooden staircase with a den hiding behind it. A Tudor Revival showcasing unusual imported Italian marble fireplace and interior fountain. A house that turns its rather modest side profile to the street, only to reveal a substantial house footprint as you walk onto the property, one of the largest houses in the area. And wait until you see the “Zenitherm” walls in one of the sun porches!
