The Millers’ Dunwoody home, a French Colonial revival, is
on the tour. Built in 1971 and bought by the Millers in 1993,
the Louisiana natives were drawn by the New Orleans flavor
of the two-story front porch and wrought iron railings.

The Dunwoody Home Tour, the ma

cluding one this year that happens to be
in Sandy Springs. The tour — the 41st
put together by the Woman’s Club, is
scheduled for Oct. 2.
The Dunwoody tour is expected to
draw up to 1,000 people, Sharon Doyle,
publicity chairwoman for the Wom
an’s Club, said in an interview. Mon

into the community,” Doyle said.
The Historic Brookhaven Candle

Brookhaven neighborhood in Buckhead

“All proceeds from the tour will help
provide temporary housing and support
services to families of ill and injured
children treated at local hospitals,” tour
committee member Donna Davidson

a “five over four with a door” because
it features five second-floor windows
above four first-floor windows with a
central door.
“It’s a nice variety of examples of
what can be done with the standard
Dunwoody home,” Doyle said.
The tour will include homes that
have been renovated to give them a new
look, including one redone in a New
Orleans style, complete with wrought-
iron balconies, and another remade into
a Craftsman-style home, Doyle said.
“I marvel at what people have accom
plished in terms of their older homes,”
Doyle said.
