The Heritage Oak Cliff 2025 Fall Home Tour takes place in our neighborhood this weekend.
Each of the seven homes featured includes an unique style, decade and neighborhood for a full tour of what Oak Cliff has to offer. Additionally, two bonus commercial properties will be included in this year’s lineup.
The tour will run from Oct. 25-26, from noon to 5 p.m. each day.

Several historic buildings will be on display during the tour, ranging from a 1923 Kings Highway home to the newly renovated East Dock warehouses development by the Dallas Zoo.
Additionally, the tour includes a history of the Freedman’s Town with a 10th Street Historic District 1930 Bungalow known as “The Little Blue House” and “hard hat” tour of the last commercial property built in 1925.
The Heritage Oak Cliff Fall Home Tour funds raised from the tour support Oak Cliff neighborhoods through grants for neighborhood beautification, street sign toppers, tree reforestation, neighborhood websites, community events, and more. Last year, the tour raised over $50,000.
