Rod's House
This tour of Rod's home is brought to you courtesy of some eBay acquisitions: (1) A set of photos from the 1970s and (2) aHello! magazine article from 1998 (PDF).
This first batch of photos features Rod and wife Carol in various rooms of their Beverly Hills home (where Rod has lived since the early 1960s). The artwork on the walls, much of the wood carving and the painted window over the chess set were all done by Rod himself.

This second batch of photos again features Rod and Carol, but a couple of decades later.
Outside // Staircase // Kitchen table
I have sat at that kitchen table! Rod made it himself (as well as the pottery plates that hang above it). The carving on the table reads: "Chicken, mash, tatties and pease and goode wine our tummies to please."
