' The original owners of the huge home Spared no expense, said Mrs. Larivee using only the best hardwood for the floors, cherry for the banister and European brick for the fireplace. Coming from a history of antique lovers, the.Larivees appreciate good pieces of fur- niture and good houses. They gained knowledge about the home by reading historical books making , sure they redo every aspect of the house according to its period. Mrs. Larivee said the previous owners spoiled the look of the house when they painted it white'. She said the term "white elephant" came from people trying to colonialize homes that Queen Anne style with each room plain at weren't meant to be done in bright colors or the bottom and getting "busier" towards the to have shutters. ceiling.

They plan to build a Victorian garage, a driveway and they have already levelled the back yard. They have also erected a Vic- torian cast iron fence around the property. Between juggling their business and renovating the house, the couple still . manages to find time to travel to various places in -Ontario to buy and sell furniture. • They buy from local dealers, auction sales and sometimes travel to England for goods. • The couple have bought and sold antiques for 12 years. Prior to owning their own business, Mr. Larivee worked for several auctioneers and later went to an auction school in Billings, Montana. Since 1978, he has-been selling his own goods through auctions held • every Saturday night in London. In 1984, they went into their own business moving it to Seaforth after the purchase of the house. •Mrs. Larivee had worked in an office prior to entering the business with her husband. Mrs. Larivee said she hopes her children will carry on the tradition of living in the giant house and will keep the building in its original style.
