Beautifully-decked out homes in one of the country’s best preserved 19th-century residential neighborhoods are the perfect way to kick off the month of December and bring some holiday cheer.

        This year, attendees have a new choice for their tour: either take the traditional tour or opt for an exclusive, enhanced evening candlelight tour. Traditional tours are at 9:00AM and noon. The enhanced wine & candlelight tour is at 4:00PM.

        Tickets are $18 for the traditional tour, $25 for the enhanced tour, and are available only through The Landmark Society, either by calling 546-7029 x10 or online www.landmarksociety.org.

            Refreshments will be served at the Landmark Society, 133. S. Fitzhugh Street during the tour.

            Tour-goers will once again gather at the Immaculate Conception Church on Lunsford Circle. They will be paired with a team of tour guides to lead them through the neighborhood to the homes on this page and more.
