Deck the halls: Cranford holiday house tour is back this Sunday

2 minute read.

Full of an array of architectural styles, historically important buildings and structures dating back nearly three centuries, Cranford has long been an ideal spot for a leisurely drive.

And now, with the 31st annual Cranford Home for the Holidays House Tour — which is returning for the first time in three years due to COVID — those with a penchant for décor can see it all with a festive spin.

The self-guided tour of five homes is hosted by the Cranford Women’s Club. It takes place from noon to 4 p.m. on Sunday, Dec. 4. Tickets are $30 per person and masks are optional.

Tickets can be purchased on Eventbrite , or in person at Augusta Mae Boutique, 35 Alden St.; Hickory and Hill General Store, 21 North Ave. W; Periwinkles Fine Gifts,19 N. Union Ave.; or the Cranford Public Library, 224 Walnut Ave. Ticket sales will be limited on the day of the tour, so advance tickets are recommended.

Four of the homes, which date from the 18th century to the 21st century, will be decorated for the holidays, which visitors can tour while periodically meeting with guides who will share information about each home. A fifth home will serve as a hospitality house, where visitors can tour the first floor, and purchase baked goods and holiday ornaments.

“These homes are beautiful and the owners are happy to share some of the stories and histories of the homes,” said Kendall O’Brien, president of Cranford Women’s Club.

One home, which sits on the banks of the Rahway River, was one of the first to be built in the town in the late 1700s. Another home, built in the early 20th century, is showcasing a vast collection of antiques.

The tour is never exactly the same. One home on this year’s tour was featured 20 years ago, while another was featured 15 years ago.

Proceeds are donated to various charities, including Project Home of Cranford, which assists those in danger of losing their homes; food pantry Cranford Family Care; and the Cranford First Aid Squad. Five $1,000 scholarships are also given to Cranford High School seniors.

Each year’s proceeds range from $5,000 to $10,000. The Cranford Home for the Holidays House Tour is the women’s club’s largest fundraiser.

The gift that keeps on giving: Perth Amboy's new e-gift card offers double dollars for spending at city businesses

Although pandemic concerns were eased last year, Cranford was heavily affected by Hurricane Ida, which led the club to postpone the tour once again.

“It didn’t seem appropriate to celebrate how some people could really decorate when others were still recovering from the hurricane,” O’Brien said. “Now it’s exciting because everyone is getting back into their normal routines and we can celebrate the great things about this town and give back.”
