What I want to know is where is the Fox'x gate house? And Can I steal it?

Hands down, Fox has the best rental in fiction.

The original of that gate house is in Owings Mills, Maryland. When I saw it, it was the caretaker's cottage, so-called, and a right mess, the former caretakers having left their position in a teensy, tiny miff with their employer. Things like having unplugged the fridge without taking any of the food out, and having dragged heavy pieces of furniture across the hardwood floors, leaving deep scars in the wood. You could see what it had been, though, and when I met Fox, I knew it would fit him right down to the ground.

Funny thing. The occasion of seeing that gate house was one of the few times I've actually spoken to Very Moneyed People -- Old Money People -- in their natural habitat. It was. . .a lesson, that conversation. One of the things the man of the couple said to me was that he had been afraid when he hired the caretaker that they weren't of the right order of people, but that quality help was so very difficult to find. You could sort of see him kind of yearning for a serf to call his own.
