Would like to know if there is a picture of the house Beauregard?
I just happened on this ad
I just happened on this ad from 1864. I had never heard of the house, and yours is the only other reference I have seen.

The first step will be to confirm its loactaion, then maybe it is shown in one of the photos we already have,
A search for Beauregard, http://gwulo.com/search/node/beauregard, shows there was a house called Beauregard on Bonham Road in 1885 and 1908. It seems likely that's the same house, but not 100% sure. Unfortunately ithey don't give any house number.
