Meself, The Strand didn't come out of nowhere regarding Wharton: there was a periodical called The Strand which published some of her short stories. That just wasn't the name of the house.
EBarnacle, you got it right about Leeneia's quote source for the two vast and trunkless legs of stone, I believe.
Joe Offer kindly provided links to video of Bob Vila the "Home Again" host, and what he linked to was a single episode (you can see where the advertisement breaks were). And it does appear that there are follow-up episodes. Now, I haven't watched these, I only did some searching for them, and I honestly don't know if they work or not. But here they are -- rather than be redundant and duplicate what's in Joe Offer's earlier post, I'm going to start these links where Bob Vila (and Joe Offer) left off.
