MAGICAL CASTLE IN CONNECTICUT FOR SALE
This real-life magical Castle in Connecticut for sale comes at a hefty price of $45 million. Eight bedrooms and as many and more bathrooms with a staggering 22377 square feet. A bit of the Castle’s story from Connecticut Magazine says:
” The turrets of the castle appear suddenly between the trees and even when you’re expecting them, you do a double take. What on earth is this doing here? It’s a giant 35,000-square-foot-plus Disneyesque castle with stone walls, towers, a moat and what appears to be a drawbridge.
Ornate and surreal, the castle looks like a set for a sword-and-sorcerer movie, or a misplaced Las Vegas resort. Stranger still is the fact that it is plopped down in the middle of an otherwise normal neighborhood of moderate-sized homes. The 20-room edifice is on a 354-acre gated parcel that also includes another smaller house. Exotic animals—including at one time a zebra, emus and camels—are kept on the property, too. ”

Well, I can see why the neighbors don’t like it. Personally, I think it’s pretty hideous inside and out. Nothing against castles but even some rich people have really poor taste.
I thought about how difficult it would be to keep clean and you’d need a weekly team so of course if you can afford a home at this price you hire teams to clean and for upkeep. You are so right it would be a great place to hold events.
Hi Crystal. If I won the lotto I would not build a castle, but is is fun to think about. Unlike Europe, the US doesn’t have old world Castle to tour so this Castle is great to have here.
Yes, that is what I think about…who will buy it and why. I would love to know too.
Your welcome my Queen.
Oh yes, too funny Doreen on the pizza delivery guy. There is a much smaller not even close to this castle kinda house on the block behind me and it took some getting used to.
totally worth a trip to Connecticut to see this beauty thanks so much for sharing
I have mixed feelings about this place. I can understand it being out of place since it’s located in a ‘normal’ neighborhood, but on the bright side whoever lives there won’t have to worry about the pizza delivery guy not being able to find your house.
Well, I think it is totally cool, but I know I wouldn’t like to live in it or pay for the upkeep.
I assume that the other properties near it are spread out because that castle must have lots of land surrounding it. It would make a good event venue.
I love it!! I would love to have this in my neighborhood. I personally would want to go in it a lot. I can see the controversy behind it though.
I’m speechless. Imagine living in that? The inside is majestic. I often wonder about the folks that built it and what it must have been like living in it. I wonder who will buy it. Keep us posted if it sells too. I would love to see who bought that masterpiece!
