The Holiday Home Tour of East Sacramento
A Benefit for Sacred Heart Parish School
Take a self-guided walking tour of five magnificent homes in Sacramento’s
Fabulous Forties, decorated for the holidays by top interior designers
and florists. The tour takes about two hours from start to finish.
The Fabulous Forties East Sacramento is home to a neighborhood that
is affectionately referred to as the "Fabulous Forties."
An area bound by J Street and Folsom Boulevard from 38th to 47th Streets,
this historic neighborhood boasts wide avenues, sweeping green lawns
and large, prewar (pre-WWI and pre-WWII) homes that have housed many
of the city’s most prominent residents.
The neighborhood features grand old houses that were custom built
in the early decades of the 20th century, when architects were looking
to Europe for design inspiration. As a result, the Fabulous Forties
is renowned for its eclectic "Revival" style architecture.
Here you find a variety of dwellings: English cottages, Tudor-style
homes, Dutch farmhouses, Mediterranean villas, and Craftsman bungalows.
No two houses are the same.
Every year since 1973, residents of the Fabulous Forties have opened
their homes to the public for the Holiday Home Tour, a self-guided
walking tour that benefits Sacred Heart Parish School in East Sacramento.
Thousands of visitors from throughout Northern California and Nevada
and beyond come to see special homes and their architecture that create
an extraordinary neighborhood.
