The rambling, rose-covered "cottage," which Owen bought three years ago for $73,000, has a main section that dates from the 16th century. It is surrounded by spacious lawns, well-tended flower beds, a small pond and a paddock for Granby, the family pony. Later in the day the Owens' two oldest children−Rebecca, 8, and Sarah, 6−will receive riding lessons from their handsome blonde mother Elizabeth, 33, John's stepcousin as well...
