Does anyone else think that the one in Arkansas looks like the "Trailer Park" of castles?


The "Zinkovy Castle, Bohemia" seems like a hell of a deal at 9 million USD. I was thinking at least 50 million on that one.

"Ozark Mountains - Winslow, Arkansas - USA"

at least the price is more reasonable than most of those - Price: $495,000

That's about $485,000 too high IMO.

English is my secondary language. So if you have complaints about it please mail them in triplicate to your senator, and include some white powder in the envelope.

Good point, it really does seem like a steal.

Serious trips to Home depot you get into one of those nightmares...

Do they even have AC? Central heat? Running water? Plumbed? Electric? How about all those ghosts of people that died there over centuries? Boo!


No thanks!!

You can get a killer modern beach house for a fraction of that price in California USA.

Uh..if you had enough money to buy one..chances are you'd have the money to add AC/central heat, and running water.
