The Windsor Square Hancock Park Historical Society presents
“The Merry Homes Of Windsor Boulevard.”
This year we are proud to feature three outstanding homes built a hundred years ago and not previously shown before on our annual home tours. One is a mansion frozen in time and filled with antique furniture and vintage items. The second home is the original carriage house belonging to the first, separated in the 1950s and filled with fantastic paintings and other objet d’art. The third home is a beautifully decorated manse updated just a few years ago with a surprise in the basement. The fourth home was once occupied by Dorothy Chandler.
Members $75
Non-Members $95
Your tour will begin at 355. S. Windsor blvd. where you will get your wristband and program. After your tour of the three homes you will return to this location for food, raffles and an early happy hour. Don’t forget to bring cash for the raffles.
You don’t want to miss this.

This year’s garden tour features a selection of lovely gardens and personal styles.
We have two gardens on Wilton Drive in the Wilton-Ridgewood Historic District. One is a colorful property with true backyard outdoor living. We are calling it Ladies Of The Canyon On Wilton Drive. The other is directly across the street and can be called an Urban Oasis. Both of these gardens were done by Sarah Alexander of Rodriguez & Satterthwaite Landscape.
Another beautiful garden is on Lucerne with a house designed by architects Walker & Eisen, the 1920 French Normandy-style home features a drought-tolerant English garden designed by Cheryl Kellough.
A fourth extraordinary Windsor Square estate garden is on display and was done by Landscaper, Patricia Benner.
