This season, after a hiatus of several years, the Salmon Brook Historical Society will again host the Holiday House Tour, December 3rd from 10:00 AM to 3:00 PM. In celebration of Granby’s 225th anniversary, the tour will feature five unique antique homes on Salmon Brook Street along with the Truman Gillette home on North Granby Road.
The homes range in age, one being built in the eventful year of 1776 to an early Victorian, renovated in the 1840s. Featured homes on the tour are in varying stages of restoration, but all are well loved by the families that own them. With any sort of cooperation from the weatherman, tour participants should be able to park in one location and take a leisurely stroll down “The Street” and visit all five homes. Refreshments will be served at several locations, so plan to enjoy a wonderful day kicking off the 2011 holiday season. Tickets will be available at Granby Pharmacy and Beman Hardware as well as the Historical Society and all featured homes on the day of the tour for $20 per person.
