38th Annual Housewalk Friday May 12, 2023
Our 37th Annual Housewalk welcomed more than 1,000 area residents to our four unique homes while helping raise funds for more than 20 local nonprofits in DuPage County. With the return of Housewalk in 2022, the community really came out in full force, we were able to raise more than $100,000 from tickets sales and business sponsorships - the highest we've ever raised from a single event. We can't thank our sponsors enough, because they consistently show up for this community. We look forward to Housewalk 2023 on Friday May 12, 2023.

Affectionately known as “the pink house on the corner”, this 1904 Queen Anne Victorian is a gorgeous blend of classic, vintage charm and thoughtful, modern updates. The home has undergone multiple renovations over the last 40 years, but the current homeowners were determined to maintain the integrity and character as they set out to blend the modern, clean-line California design elements that they fell in love with while living in Los Angeles, with edgier mid-century modern furniture and accessories. Inspired by their Glen Ellyn upbringings, the owners were drawn to the uniqueness of the home and the idyllic location and were excited and intrigued by the design challenge, transforming each room with an emphasis on “less is more” function and maximization of space, while also focusing on creating a warm, welcoming environment for life with their 2 young children as they continue to grow their business, “à la main.”
Leading the overall design and implementation of the vision themselves, the owners researched and curated much of the furniture, art and accessories from a variety of vendors from across the country with a unique mix of old and new. This one-of-a-kind piece of Glen Ellyn history is sure to inspire visitors to rethink traditional design rules when it comes to creating your own space and to always focus on the individuality of your home and family! |
