Step Back In Time

There are more than 600 houses in the Winnetka Heights neighborhood of Oak Cliff, which was platted in 1908 and designated a historic district in 1981. Since then, its homeowners have been diligently preserving the turn of the century architecture while also modernizing the interiors of their homes. The Holiday Home Tour is a rare opportunity to explore both aspects of these charming Craftsman homes up close and personal.

Take a look back at the homes from last year’s Holiday Home Tour!
