The Coronado Historical Association’s annual Coronado Historic Home Tour will again be held on Mother’s Daythis year on Sunday, May 11, from 11 am to 4 pm. Six enchanting examples of architecture will be featured, from the classic lines of an historic English Tudor style, to a Spanish Eclectic bungalow hideaway and the hidden treasures of a traditional Mediterranean courtyard home.
One of the featured homes on the tour this year was a 2014 GEM Award finalist* for its remarkable renovation. A well-known Coronado landmark at 708 A Avenue, built in 1915 and known historically as the Sherman Mansion, this stunning 5,000+ sq.-ft. home on a 28,000 sq.-ft. corner lot has just undergone a full interior remodel and expansion.
