snaffled from r/JulianMay by ZiggerTheNaut:

This may not be news to anyone but after decades of rereading Julian May's books, and in particular rereading "Intervention: A Novel" currently, I found what appears to have been her model for The Old Remillard Home in Hanover, NH. This is the one Denis and Lucille move into to found their dynasty.

In the novel, the address is 15 east South Rd, Hanover, NH. Currently there is no home there BUT there is Maynard House at 17 South Rd which looks to be medical guest house, https://www.maynardhouse.org, but the look and feel screams The Old Remillard Home.

In the novel, the walking directions Uncle Rogi and The Family Ghost take when he's looking for a location for The Eloquent Page, matches it perfectly outside of the street number; east on South St, past Currier Place which took them near the Hanover Public Library, and east of there was, "a large white clapboard house with dark green shutters, a modest portico, and third-floor dormers..." which seems to match the picture of Maynard House almost perfectly, even in 2026.

Again, maybe this is old news but I only discovered it this morning after not being able to sleep :)
