Preservation Georgetown Home Tour 2025
Join us for a captivating journey through the heart of Georgetown as we proudly present the Preservation Georgetown Home Tour 2025!
This year we celebrate and honor C.S. Belford, one of Georgetown’s most iconic and well known designers and builder of over 60 homes in Old Town and specifically, the Belford Historic District.
Immerse yourself in the rich history and architectural splendor, where meticulously preserved homes blend with modern updates, creating a tapestry of timeless elegance. For just the second year, we also will have a church (St. John’s Methodist Church) where the sanctuary was designed by C.S. Belford.
