In 1972 Jimmy Page bought 'Tower House' in Melbury Road, London, from Richard Harris, and from the mid 1970s to 2004 he owned ' Mill House', Mill Lane, Windsor, which he bought from the actor, Michael Caine. In addition, in 1971 he purchased Boleskine House, the former residence of occultist Aleister Crowley (didn't buy it from Crowley though, as he died in 1947!). Boleskine is probably the most notable (or notorious) building along the south side of Loch Ness, Scotland and was sold by Jimmy in 1992, and it has since been sold again.

In 1972 Page bought, from Richard Harris, the home which William Burges designed for himself in London, The Tower House. "I had an interest going back to my teens in the pre-Raphaelite movement and the architecture of Burges," he said. "What a wonderful world to discover." The reputation of William Burges (1827-1881) rests on his extravagant designs and his contribution to the Gothic revival in architecture in the nineteenth century.[19]
From the mid 1970s to 2004 Jimmy owned 'The Mill House', Mill Lane, Windsor, UK - formerly the home of actor Michael Caine. Fellow Led Zeppelin band member John Bonham died at the house in 1980.
From the early 1970s to well into the 1980s, Jimmy Page owned the Boleskine House, the former residence of occultist Aleister Crowley. Sections of Page's fantasy sequence in The Song Remains the Same were filmed at night on the mountain side directly behind Boleskine House.
