i was trying to figure out when the house was built... Maybe "Edwardian" would give it away but there have been a bunch of King Edwards through the ages as it turns out. Any clue regarding the age of the house?

That's a very misleading photo.

I drove up to the house at Christmas when i was home and the entrance isn't half as grand as that would lead you to believe. You kind of come at the house from the rear rather than what looks like the driveway on the RHS of that photo.

Thanks for that, it was a very interesting read. My parents had their wedding reception in the Woodbourne House, #2

In the middle of the house photos, there is this photo

an odd photo to use. I would have expected one of the classic JZD ones.

Anyone recognise who it is? Is that a South Africa plate?

IIRC, that is a photo of Stian B. I will check and confirm.

I was hoping to see pictures of the gold facets in the bathroom.

Yes, that is a photo of Stian, his father and Stian's DeLorean (6759) at Warren House.

I looked at a satellite view of the property and noticed the same thing: This grandiose view of the house is really the side of the house; and the front is over on the right off of a very tiny road. I was also amazed how close the house is to the factory and almost located ON the test track! I can see why JZD chose this house.

Who is Stian?

I was ON that test track during the last Eurofest and I did not know that :banghead:
I hope to see that the next time.

yeah, just rub it in....

I know I saw that one too. I would not want to disturb anyone there but I would love to just "have seen it" and I was so close.
One more motivation for Eurofest 2016
