Homes include a lovingly restored Dutch Colonial, a completely rehabbed townhouse, an English Tudor built in 1928 and designed by Frances Palmer Smith, a Greek Revival home built in 1911, a 1911 Cape Cod-Craftsman style home, and a 1929 Mediterranean style home full of architectural and design surprises.
The tour will also feature SCADpads, fully functional residences the size of a parking space designed and built by Savannah College of Art and Design students and alumni. The tour is open to the public on Saturday from noon to 6 p.m. and Sunday from noon to 5 p.m. Tickets are $20 in advance and $25 on tour dates. Tickets are available on anselytourofhomes.com. Along with the opportunity to explore the homes, there will be local food trucks in the neighborhood offering up lunch options to visitors.
