Yes, part of an interview he did for Belgian tv takes place in the pool (well, in front of it). He says he only had it built for Tabitha, because he didn't use it himself often.
I think he used it a lot for his physical therapy after the incident with the van, didn't he?
Here are some particularly beautiful photos of the Bangor house:

And they prove the sun actually SHINES on his home. Just look at those pictures with a horror soundtrack (I now have Pino Donaggio's Trauma on) and it gives a great effect - music does so much for image.
It says on that forum that he bought and uses the other house for his library. The house that feels like Psycho to me is the one on the other side.
Can't find pics of his Portland home. But he probably kept it out of the media, so he can actually have privacy there.

...the library statement is a common myth...actually is a guest house and I'm sure there are a few books scattered about....
Here are 10 places to stop by. I probably never go there for real though.

Here's that video I was talking about:
Perhaps someone on this board by accident?
It's so funny that the guy doesn't want to get out of the car and limits the amount of drive-by's. She goes out alone - it would be the perfect start of a story if she didn't come back.
There are just so few people on the streets in the whole town: I saw like five or so. Probably nearly everyone has a car.

Thank you. That is really cute. I know I'd be acting the same way.
"He might be in the gas station using the rest room!" Could be in any of these cars!"
I think the houses in Stephen's neighborhood are gorgeous and not creepy, like the lady in the video says.
Considering how big his house is (it doesn't even look so big from the front, but it goes back a long way) it seems strange he needs a separate guest house too.
And it seems the baseball field is there, but not directly behind the house, I think there are some woods first. But I can't find a picture showing from the sky how far it is to the field.
And there is also a statue of a leaping frog all the way to the left just behind the fence.
But it's so quiet, that makes it creepy. You'd expect at least some children playing.
....I don't know so much that it was bought with the intent of turning it to a guest house, more like cornering the housing TO the corner.....i.e. those conjoined lots would be all King and no-one else....and if I recall the story correctly, they were approached by family of the owners, wondering if the King's would be interested in purchasing the house....
....Google Earth gives you a pretty good peek at the woods belt between the mansion and Hayford Park.....and the Shawn T. Mansfield Stadium, built in 1991 with funds provided by Unca Steve.....

Found it. Never used Google Earth, funny how everything looks like a maquette when you zoom real close.
The airport is really a big part of Bangor.
