Pillars House Walk Returns With 3 Beautiful Homes

Anyone who's spent time walking or driving through La Grange and La Grange Park knows the towns are full of beautiful homes. And this weekend, three of them will be on display during the 15th annual Pillars House Tour. 

Local families will open their homes to docent-guided tours for the public. The tickets benefit Pillars, a local mental health and social services agency. 

The event is from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m. Sunday, June 9. Tickets are $25 in advance or can be purchased for $30 at any of the three homes. Register online here. Here's more information about the featured homes:

If you admire Frank Lloyd Wright you will want to see this home.  Carol and Derek Metcalf invite you to tour this new construction prairie style beauty in La Grange Park.

A Victorian Classic at 143 S. 6th Avenue, La Grange
Barb and Don Schaffer welcome you to visit this piece of history that has been gently nudged into the modern age without sacrificing its charm.  A bygone era has been lovingly preserved while being influenced by the needs of a modern family. Stroll up the walk, through the front porch to the foyer with its Victorian staircase. A stunning kitchen that will inspire everyone's inner chef awaits you as well.

Eclectic art and collections, and a soothing yet sophisticated color palette will greet you. Beth and Matt White invite you to their seamlessly updated and beautifully appointed home.
