Twenty-eight years ago, a leading Guelph industrialist began his search for a retirement lot in the city. He could afford the best. It had to be big, that's for sure, to accommodate the sprawling bungalow he had in mind. Ideally, it would be tucked away for privacy, yet conveniently close to everything, hopefully with some already-towering trees since, after all, he and Marguerite weren't young anymore. Well, on a quiet crescent known to few, at the 90 degree bend in Honey Crescent, Newt found it all nearly 3/4 of acre behind which a walking path meanders along the somnambulant Speed River, right through Royal City Park and downtown. Majestic maples were already there to shade his future patio, so on this generously proportioned patch of heaven, he custom built his elegantly understated stone home, just a bit under 3,000 sq.ft. in all. Being a bungalow, it offered a huge basement, too, with space enough for two giant rec rooms and twin workshops where Newt worked diligently at his hobbies - from woodworking, to glass cutting and sandblasting, to clock repair, to you name it. Upstairs, this spacious all plaster home offers the impressively large principal rooms you would expect, maybe a bit too much wallpaper and broadloom for today's bland decor, but impressive indeed. Beautiful houses come and go, but a lot and location like this will not soon be duplicated.
