Built in 1904,the last proper owner was a French born Spanish/English artist and orchid grower named James Francis Walford... apparently his wife, who we think features in many of the canvases left lying around, is still alive at 104 and lives in a nearby residential home,12 bedrooms with staff quarters in the attic, this house still is incredibly impressive, and I hope it will be preserved...

( skip a year or two ! )

Damn.... Did this place get a face lift. I never would of thought this place could be saved, let alone turned into this....
