‘Tis the season for Holiday Tour of Homes in our Atlanta neighborhoods! 
There is quite a line up this year and several neighborhoods in Atlanta & Decatur are highlighting their most beautiful homes and celebrating the holiday season.
I’ve been able to participate in the Decatur and Virginia Highland home tours over the years, and it really is a wonderful way to kick off the holiday season. You could spend every weekend in December visiting holiday homes in Decatur, Oakhurst, Virginia Highlands, Avondale Estates and Grant Park.
To follow are the details for each neighborhood:
This is the 26th year of the Decatur Candlelight Holiday Tour of Homes and this year there will be a special focus on “Living Green” — most of the homes have been built or renovated in an eco-friendly manner.
DATE: December 5 & 6
TIME: 5:30 to 9:30 pm (both days)
Tickets are $20 in advance and $25 at the door. Proceeds will benefit the Decatur Preservation Alliance and the Decatur Youth Fund.
