Where She Went
As you’ve probably guessed from the amount of care that went into the home, Joyce saw herself as an interior designer. She said so to the Daily Mail during an interview. If you ask us, she should have made a career out of it! She’s so talented! However, now, it was time to say goodbye to her own masterpiece that took decades to put together. What would be next for her? The media heard about her selling the house to get the money she needed for a retirement home. She wanted to enjoy her twilight years without having to maintain a house. She used to be a seamstress in the past. Can you believe she managed to put together the house with no training at all? When speaking to HGTV, she said: “I’ve always tried to be individual, and follow my own styles.”
A History Lesson
Joyce and her husband began calling 148 Jane Street home back in 1942. Back then, the Second World War was still happening. Everyone was focused on the destruction going on. The couple relocated to this two-story brick house and decided to make it theirs. Many people wanted to know if the new owners planned on leaving the interior or if they would redo it. If you ask us, it would be such a shame to destory everything Joyce worked so hard to make. To this day, we have no idea what the new owners did to the house. The only thing we can assume is that it’s been sold since the listing is no longer on the site. Seeing as it isn’t an inheritance or museum, the new owners are free to do what they want with the house.
