Looking straight down at Stuart Manor in the Celery Flats Historical Area, Portage, Michigan.
"Stuart Manor, originally built in 1860, is a charming example of late 19th-century vernacular architecture. This historic home was relocated to the Celery Flats Historical Area in Portage, Michigan, in 1990 as part of an effort to preserve the region’s agricultural and residential heritage. The house's architectural style reflects a practical and modest design typical of farm homes during its era, with clean lines, functional spaces, and period-appropriate detailing. Today, Stuart Manor serves as a centerpiece of the historical park, showcasing the lifestyle of Portage’s early settlers and their connection to the celery farming industry that once thrived in the area."

Waddesdon Manor was built in the Neo-Renaissance style of a French château between 1874 and 1889 for Baron Ferdinand de Rothschild (1839–1898). Since this was the preferred style of the Rothschilds it became also known as the Goût Rothschild. The house, set in formal gardens and an English landscape park, was built on a barren hilltop overlooking Waddesdon village, in Buckinghamshire. The last member of the Rothschild family to own Waddesdon was James de Rothschild. He bequeathed the house and its contents to the National Trust in 1957. Today, following an extensive restoration, it is administered by a Rothschild charitable trust that is overseen by Jacob Rothschild, 4th Baron Rothschild. In 2007–08 it was the National Trust's second most visited paid-entry property, with 386,544 visitors. Cited in Wikipedia
The Phantom Manor in Disneyland Paris is quite different than the Haunted Mansion in Florida. Most notably, the architecture is very different, your Ghost Host speaks French (it used to be Vincent Price in English!), the stretching portraits are very different and there is no graveyard scene or hitchhiking ghosts at the end. Instead, the finale is a trip through a wild west "ghost town" - which is a bit scarier than its US counterparts. Lastly, Phantom Manor is in Frontierland in Paris as opposed to Liberty Square in Florida

The estates and manors of Belle-Rivière are of heritage interest for their historical value. The whole bears witness to the seigniorial regime. The seigneurial domain includes a manor, which is a residence generally larger than the other dwellings, serving both as a residence and as an office for the lord. All around, there are usually various buildings necessary for the subsistence of the lord and his censitaires, as illustrated by the old stone grain shed of the Belle-Rivière estate. Arrived in 1657 and lords of Montreal, the Sulpicians became holders of the seigneury of Lac-des-Deux-Montagnes in 1717. They settled in their domain of Oka in 1721. The banal mill that the Sulpicians had built in 1787 does not meet expectations and its location obliges censitaires to make a long detour to get there. This is why a second mill, now gone, was erected in 1804 in Belle-Rivière, at the same time as the manor. The latter was above all the residence of the miller, while the bursar responsible for collecting the cens paid a visit there once a year, generally in winter. The estate bears witness to the economic power that the Sulpicians still had in the region of Montreal and its surroundings in the 19th century.

Although Westwell Manor is a highly traditional garden, largely following the style of Hidcote and Sissinghurst, the section I like most is this extraordinary, modernist blackwater pool. Owner Anthea Gibson created the pool in the late 1990s from the original tennis court. The effect is sublime, I think, with ever-changing reflections from the yews and with the witty flourish of the rowing boat. The water is apparently treated with a dye.
Halliwell Manor aka the Charmed house from the WB show...Charmed. My mother in law came to visit and is a huge fan so we had to take her. The house has been used many times for exterior shots only. It is located at 1329 Carroll Ave in the Echo Park section of Los Angeles, California, near Dodger Stadium.
