Windsor homes on tour Nov. 2 with WSHPHS

| October 24, 2024 | 0 Comments

HOME for Dr. Edwin Janss at 434 S. Windsor Blvd. was well underway in 1912. This will be on the Nov 2. home tour.

Visit the Merry Homes of Windsor Boulevard on Sat., Nov. 2, from noon to 4 p.m. with the Windsor Square-Hancock Park Historical Society.

Three homes built 100 years ago and not previously shown on the WSHPHS’s annual home tour will be featured.

At press time, it was announced that a fourth home has been added — the former Janss-Chandler home on Lorraine Boulevard.

The Windsor homes include a mansion frozen in time and filled with antiques and vintage items. Another home on the tour is the original carriage house belonging to the first home — until the large lot was subdivided in the 1950s. It is filled with paintings and objets d’art.

The third house on Windsor is a recently updated and beautifully decorated manse with a surprise basement. It is one of the original Janss homes featured in a Larchmont Chronicle story in our July 2015 issue. Click here to read the article.

The Janss family originally intended to build four abutting homes north of Fifth Street between Lorraine and Windsor boulevards. The fourth home on the tour is one of those — the house made famous by its longtime occupants, the late Norman and Dorothy Chandler.

The tour begins and ends at 355 S. Windsor Blvd. Food, raffle prizes and an early happy hour will be part of the tour. Tickets are $75 for members and $95 for non-members. Visit wshphs.com.
