Found it! 915 Tower Road. Looking at Google street view, it was torn down sometime between Sept. 2017 and Aug. 2018

This was 378 Shore Drive. It was built in 1913 by James E. Roy, after their original house (also in Bedford) burned down. Mr. Roy was manager of the Singer Sewing Machine company in NS.
In 1938, they converted the home into six apartments; two apartments were occupied by Roy's daughters. It stayed in the Roy family until 1965, when the last Roy daughter died and it was sold.
In 2010, it was purchased by a developer and later demolished. Over 2024-25 ten houses were built on the site.
For more information about the Roy family and their houses. Please contact the Fort Sackville Foundation at scottmanor.ca. -
