Event

Columbia Home Tour

The Villages of Columbia present the fifth annual Columbia Home Tour on Sunday, June 1, 2014, 11am - 5pm. Tickets are $20 each in advance and available at any of the ten Columbia village community centers beginning April 14, 2014. Tickets will be on sale the day of the event for $25 at Amherst House only.
With a tour guide book and map, participants will embark on a self-guided tour of five distinct homes throughout the Columbia villages. Docents welcome participants at each location and guide them through the home. All ticket holders are invited to visit Amherst House in Kings Contrivance for light refreshments and displays by Columbia Archives and Rebuilding Together Howard County.
The Columbia Home Tour provides an interesting perspective on what facets of architecture in Columbia endure and what change to reflect the needs and style of today's residents. It also offers a rare opportunity to view the interior layouts of many familiar Columbia home models. This year's featured homes include: a Vantage House penthouse in Town Center; a transitional 2-story on the golf course in Harper's Choice; a modern rancher in Oakland Mills; a traditional 2-story in Owen Brown; and a California contemporary in Harper's Choice.
Proceeds from The Columbia Home Tour benefit a local charity, Rebuilding Together Howard County. The Columbia Home Tour is sponsored by the Villages of Columbia and Columbia Archives.
