Ah Charlene, can it be The Beaumont Road House? It sure does look like it, from Marylyn Mackays Interview plus the book, "If You Could Read His Mind"

Well All Right urban legend has it that Char at least once visited the Beaumont Road Rosedale house when she inadvertently found herself there trick or treating no doubt she can confornm that matter or...
OK OK you experts did Gord actually move from Rosedale to Bridle Path or just had the exterior repainted??



Or does he merely have a predeliction towards turrets and/or cupolas??

You lucky woman you. Can you find one where we would see more of this spacious sprawling mansion. And then the one on The Bridal Path, maybe asking too much?

Here's what one of the original homes look like....they were generally very nice, but more modest ranch-style homes on very big lots...

http://img7.exs.cx/img7/4087/PICT8630.jpg

Here's another original....this one is practically all underground...it has a very Frank Loyd Wright kind of design to it...as does it's impecably minimalist but tastefull landscaping...

Holy Moses! Those are not houses - they are Museums! I actually prefer the more modest rand style house.
