Enjoy Christmas in the Village at Bedford Holiday House Tour Sun Dec 13

Tour Bedford homes — all within walking distance of Bedford Center — dressed in their holiday finest complete with sounds of the season.

Suzanne & Company Christmas in the Village Holiday House Tour
Sunday, December 13, 1 to 4pm

Now in its 18th year, we’re pleased and excited to announce the 2015 Christmas in the Village Holiday House Tour. On Sunday, Dec 13 from 1 to 4pm, bundle up and get your jingle on while visiting a variety of delightfully decorated homes in Bedford — all within walking distance of Bedford center. With our picturesque historic town center, wandering carolers and mulled cider, it will be a stroll back in time!

While all of this year’s featured homes are within walking distance of Bedford Center, guests are still welcome to drive. The tour includes one of Bedford Center’s landmark buildings — Suzanne & Company’s office in the historic home at 90 Great Road. Be sure to stop by and refuel at the warming station with hot chocolate and mulled cider. As always, all of the homes highlight the heritage and architectural variety found in Bedford, with many hostesses offering refreshments along with live performers sharing sounds of the season. And to keep visitors sharp, an identical holiday item will be placed in each home — the first three people to correctly identify it win tickets to next year’s house tour.

Get in the spirit with this video of last year’s tour.

In the course of visiting the homes, guests are invited to gather at the Congregational Church on Great Road for refreshments and holiday cheer, including the opportunity to shop for those special people on your gift list at the holiday bazaar. Proceeds support the activities of the Chamber of Commerce, including The Charles Hume Scholarship, awarded to local students.

Tickets are $20 in advance ($15 for seniors, $10 for children 16 and under), and $25 day of the event — available at the New England Nursery at 216 Concord Road, Great Road Gallery & Framing at 363 Great Road, Prince Street Cafe & Bakery at 200 Great Road, and online at bedfordchamber.org.
