A home that exploded in Long Grove at Royal Melbourne Country Club was apparently located just south of the 4773 Trenton Court address at the southwest portion of the cul-de-sac. Aerial news photos from ABC 7 Chicago (ABC 7 Chicago news photos) show the leveled home, just east of the sand trap on the fairway of the Back Nine between the 13th Hole and the 14th Hole.
