Home Tour & Street Fair Is Sept. 29

The annual Park Hill Home Tour & Street Fair is Sunday, Sept. 29.

Stops include a 1911 mansion that has been completely renovated with original period pieces; a 1929 Tudor steeped in historical charm with modern renovations; a 1919 bungalow transformed into a large contemporary farmhouse; a 1920s Tudor modernized with custom touches; and a new home that has been crafted to capture the elegance and grandeur of the Italian Renaissance period.

Ticket-holders gain access to visit and tour the featured homes, and see the creativity of the owners and designers on display.

The Tour began in 1978 when a local realtor organized a tour of Park Hill homes to unveil the rich history and diverse architecture of the neighborhood. Over the years, it has evolved into a full-blown community event with a free daylong street fair with music, beer and wine, and more than 80 vendors.

Home Tour tickets — $30 for adults and $25 for people 65 and older — go on sale in early August at parkhillhometour.org. Check out next month’s issue for additional details about the Home Tour and Street Fair, including photos and previews of this year’s featured homes.
