The Cohen Bray House is officially listed on the National Register of Historic Places. It was built in the Queen Anne Victorian-style in 1884. The house has 17 rooms, five fireplaces, Eastlake-style curly redwood paneling which is ornately carved, pocket doors, Pottier & Stymus and Herter Brothers furnishings, stained glass, and original wallpapers and carpeting.
Because of the fragile contents, it is only open about a dozen times a year to the public.
Descendants of the original family often lead the tours. The tea will include savory and sweet items along with hot beverages served in the formal dining room.
The house does not have a handicap ramp and there are eight steps up to the front door. It is not suitable for those who cannot climb stairs, as the bedrooms are on the second floor and the attic and tower room are on the third floor.
The tea and tour is expected to take roughly three hours.
There is limited parking in their back lot. If full, they recommend parking at the Goodwill half a block away.
Cost: Members & their guests: $55, others $65
