It's only 6.8 mill and it does generate revenue....so it could help us all out

King Arthur: Can we come up and have a look?
French Soldier: Of course not. You're English types. King Arthur: What are you then? French Soldier: I'm French. Why do you think I have this outrageous accent, you silly king? Sir Galahad: What are you doing in England? French Soldier: Mind your own business.

Honestly, if I was some sort of rich guy like an athlete or business man that had $6M and it wouldn't break the bank... I'd buy this right away.

Isn't this like Fable III? We just need to go around and do quests and buy property to rent out and before you know it, we should have the money to buy the castle.

Holy crap, I thought for sure this thread was going to be about the castle 5 minutes from my house:
Quote:
The story behind this is pretty interesting. Apparently the original builder/owner started building this castle after he and his wife returned from a honeymoon in Europe where she became infatuated with castles. It was not completed because they divorced several years later and apparently (the story goes) he had a broken heart and couldn't bear to complete it. It was bought several years ago by a Miami attorney who wanted to turn it into a high-priced bed and breakfast/wedding chapel and reception hall, but the house portion of it "mysteriously" burned down on May 10, 2004 (which is, coincidentally, the day our youngest daughter was born) during renovations. Anyway, he finally finished the renovations and opened it for use, but the neighbors bitched about it and the county would only approve it for use once a month for charity events or weddings. I think recently, they loosened those restrictions up a bit. But it's quite the landmark on the way from Lexington to Versailles. Almost every day someone's pulled over on 60 taking pictures of it.

My guess is the money he's put into it + its "landmark" status is worth more than the assessed value.

Not to mention, as many sheikhs as visit the area for the horse farms and Keeneland sales, I bet he's hoping one of them will spill his pocket change on the castle as a place to hang out when they fly their personal 767s in from the middle east.

Something like that.
Actually, we still lived in Florida at the time it burned, but when we moved here 2 years later, that date came up. It's possible my wife, who resembled a fire-breathing dragon at the time she was in labor, may have sparked the fire.
