The Vanderhyde Estate is an isolated and old storied, but well-maintained property and house. Originally named the Devreux House, Mr Vanderhyde made the switch to assert his authority when he married Anthea Devreux. The house is full of artifacts seemingly just so the family can boast of having them. Anthea's divining equipment is scattered across the place, the House Elves having been warned against touching any of them, but everything else is always in its place. It is a large and echoey place for only four inhabitants, allowing each his or her own space.
