The homes, all located in downtown Wheaton, are:

• 618 N. Gary Ave., a refurbished 1900s farmhouse decorated in a fusion of historic and modern features;

• 915 N. West St., a more than 4,000-square-foot frame-and-stone house built in 2009 with gothic features, Victorian gables and a double front porch;

• 205 E. Prairie Ave., a luxury home built in 2006 including a gourmet kitchen, terraces and sunroom; and

• 1106 N. West St., an English cottage built in 1948 with more than 3,000 square feet of living space.

"Our Holiday Housewalk has become an unofficial kick off to the holiday season," said Kassy Krause, director of Flight. "We are grateful to all of the homeowners for sharing their incredible homes with us and the people who are lucky enough to experience them, all while raising much needed funds for a great organization."

Attendees may visit homes in any order, and three homes are in walking distance of each other. No strollers are permitted and day-of tickets must be purchased with check or cash only.
