About this Event

Seven homes. One afternoon, offering a delightful journey through architectural design, neighborhood history, and the richly textured lives of the people who chose to live here.

Whether you are an architecture enthusiast, a design lover, a history buff, or simply curious about the remarkable homes tucked within our distinctive local neighborhoods, the Palisades Village House Tour offers a rare opportunity to explore them from the inside while supporting a cause that enriches lives throughout the community.

Every ticket purchased helps Palisades Village continue providing programs and services that enable local older adults to remain independent, engaged, and connected as they age. More than a showcase of architecture and design, the House Tour is a powerful example of neighbors helping neighbors and strengthening the fabric of the community.

This year’s homes include: a late 19th-century Italianate; Tudor, Colonial, and Federal Revivals; a 21st-century four-square; and a sleek Modern Contemporary.  All are located in the Berkley, Foxhall, Kent, and Palisades neighborhoods.

Event Details:

  • Open to guests aged 10 and up
  • Rain or shine — the event will proceed regardless of the weather
  • No refunds will be issued due to inclement weather

Because the featured homes are diverse and located throughout the Palisades, Kent, Foxhall, and Berkley neighborhoods, we recommend using a car or bicycle to travel between them. We’ve made efforts to minimize the number of steps at each location, and step counts will be clearly indicated in the guidebook.
