BAPA Home Tour

BAPA’s Beverly/Morgan Park Home Tour was Sunday, May 21, 2023. Five fabulous private homes and one local institution opened their doors for hundreds of visitors curious to get an inside look at some of our community’s most beautiful places.

This year’s homes highlighted how neighbors have preserved the best of our historic community’s architecture by maintaining unique interior details while making updates designed for today’s lifestyles. Sites included:

• A 140 year old Victorian home that was divided into a duplex for many decades before the current owners undertook a complete restoration, turning the house into their dream home.
• An elegant Tudor Revival style home from the 1920s where the beautiful original woodwork was meticulously restored and an expansive new kitchen created for a young family with a Dad who loves to cook.
• A simply beautiful frame Four Square that was the family home of the owner who moved back from the West Coast to purchase and renovate the house.
• A stunning 1915 brick home rich in architectural details including three sunrooms, a tiled roof, and an outstanding hand carved fireplace mantel. It’s a contributing building in the Ridge Historic District.
• A gracious center-entrance Georgian built in 1924 where the owners have taken painstaking care to mesh the beauty of the past with the style and amenities perfect for a busy family.
