Nicholas Sparks’s sprawling residence in New Bern, N.C., didn’t all the time appear like a museum.
For near 10 years, the three-story, riverfront home was overrun with the creator’s 5 kids, who threw footballs in the lounge and accomplished their homework on the now absolutely dressed eating room desk custom-built for 10.
“It was an lively, busy family for a very long time,” Mr. Sparks mentioned. “At one level, there have been 4 canine and about 13 folks residing right here — myself, my now ex-wife, our 5 kids, an alternate scholar, and buddies.”
