No Moat? And Ya Call This Shack A Castle?
Your home can be your castle - if you've got a lazy $15 million. The Searles Castle is for sale in Great Barrington, Massachusetts and has towered over the end of Main Street for 120 years. It was commissioned by the widow of a railroad tycoon, who married its designer, Edward Searles. Over the years, it's been a private school and a storage facility. If you’re interested, $15 million gets you seven turrets and a dungeon, but no moat.

Turrets???? That's kind of harsh. I would feel bad to be the robber if there were people on lookout.
Hi Viper,
Nice to see you here, as always. Mate, the turrets are just a red herring.
The lookout is done on surveillance cameras mounted within the eyes of the stone lions that guard the battlements!
Cheers

Yeah, but does it come with a cleaner??
Ah, Ms Worthington-Humphries,
With not one but several cleaners, three butlers, six chefs - and a partridge in a pear tree.
Would madam care to inspect the premises forthwith?
Oh well, in that case, I'll just take it now. if you don't mind. (Fetch the bags, Jeeves.)
Hi Carol,
Very good, milady. Hubert will bring the fleet of Bentleys later.
And shall I instruct the grubby little commerce-bound realtor to keep the change from your esteemed purchase?
Another magnum of Mumm, perhaps?
David
