The annual St. Joseph Holiday Homes tour returns this weekend allowing residents to view some of St. Joseph’s historic architecture.
Organizer Sarah Wilson says the tour features new homes every single year…
“Many, I would say most of the homes, on the tour this year I have not even had a chance to step in but every year they’re spectacular,” Wilson says on the KFEQmunnity show. “And I’m very excited about the lineup this year because there’s some homes that I’ve definitely wanted to get to see inside that I haven’t got the chance to yet.”
The tour features five home and one church around St. Joseph. Wilson says there’s something for everyone
“From a very small cottage that was the home of P.E Chestnut, to really, really large mansions,” Wilson explains. “So, I think that everybody is going to really enjoy this year.”
The homes tour will be held on Saturday from 10am to 4pm. Tickets must be purchased in advance for 35 dollars, or 30 for museum members.
Wilson says viewing the homes along the tour is always a source of inspiration for her
“I’m just always excited about the creativity of the homeowners as they solve the problems of preserving these exquisite mansions and properties and also their decorating choices, it’s always very tasteful and so interesting, it’s just really a sight for the eyes,” Wilson says. So, it’s going to be great.”
There will also be an exclusive preview night on Friday, limited to just 10 people. You can contact St. Joseph Museums to see if any spots are available.
