Reminds me of the first time I went to the Edsel Ford Estate in St Clair Shores Michigan.
We were driving along the parkway and came to the address.
I thought "wow. That's very conservative....not at all what I expected. Small, modest..."
I realized after we went in that what I was seeing was the gate house, where the security guard lived. The main estate home was inside the property about another mile, on Lake St Clair.
