Take a Sneak Peek Inside Huntington Woods Home Tour

The 21st annual event will offer a rare glimpse into some of the city's most elegant and historic homes Sunday, June 2.

The 21st annual Huntington Woods home tour will offer a rare glimpse into some of the city's most elegant and historic homes Sunday, June 2.

Six houses with a variety of architectural styles will be featured during the Huntington Woods Women's League fundraiser. Past beneficiaries have included the Berkley School District, Burton Community Park and the Judson Center.

The full list of tour homes will not be revealed until the day of the tour. 

Some of the world's most-renowned architects have designed houses in Huntington Woods, including Eero Saarinen (St. Louis' Gateway Arch), Albert Kahn (Fisher Building) and Minoru Yamasaki (World Trade Center).

"The home tour has become a cherished tradition in our city," HWWL President Susan Brice said. "This event showcases some extraordinary homes and, most importantly, this event raises money for local charities and community projects."
