This year's party is being held at a magnificent 1896 Queen Anne Victorian in Old Escondido, which is on the National Register. Built by real estate developer Albert Beach on speculation, the house was purchased by Henry Timken, the roller-bearing inventor who owned a ranch in Escondido and a home in San Diego, as a wedding gift for his sister, Amelia Bridges. The meticulously restored home has received multiple awards, been featured in local and national newspapers and magazines and was the subject of the PBS TV show "Restore America." The high-end restoration reflects the aesthetic of the 1880s and '90s art movement and the ownerâs collection of early California art in itself is not to be missed. This will be a most memorable Holiday Party.
Directions: Escondido is approximately 33 miles north of San Diego. From freeway I-15 take the Auto Park Way/W. 9th Avenue exit and turn right. Follow 9th Avenue for approximately a mile and a half. Turn left on Juniper. House is on the southeast corner of 7th and Juniper.
