Ranking America's Castles for Sale

America isn’t famous for its many castles. But it turns out there are a few castles available to buy, ranging from 130 thousand to 7 million dollars. I looked at each one and ranked them by their "castleiness".

There's something weirdly wrong with castles with modern windows... Like uncanny valley but for castles instead of humans

@ruthenium6648 Жыл бұрын

What are you talking about? If you mean modern windows, sure, but windows in general? I don't know if you know this, but in general there are two types of castles. A medieval fortress (a keep) that is built only for protection. Back then glass wasn't readily available. And the castle built for beauty (I don't know what you'd call it in English, but in German it's a schloß) which did in fact include windows because they were basically mansions. Who would want to live in a mansion where it's always cold?

I live near (and have even been inside) the Cottonland Castle (1:32). It is jokingly considered to be cursed because everyone who has ever bought it has sunk significantly more than it’s worth into renovations before having to sell. Over the last twenty years or so, I’ve never known anyone to hold onto it for more than 2 or 3 years!

Epic Castle Stats Below! Number of Castles Per State (in order of appearance, with "NOT A CASTLE" tier subtracted): -- Tennessee: 3 (also, the Nashville is not C tier, c'mon. Solid A imo) -- Alabama: 1 -- California: 2 (-1) -- Texas: 1 -- Pennsylvania: 1 (-1) -- New Hampshire: 1 -- Oklahoma: 2 -- New York: 1 -- Missouri: 1 -- Wisconsin: 1 -- Washington: 0 (-1) -- Michigan: 1 -- Florida: 1 -- Utah: 1 -- Kansas: 2 -- Montana: 1 (-1) (2nd is missing info card) -- Arkansas: 2 (-1) -- Idaho: 2 Number of Castles w/ Certain Ranking (And How Many Per State) -- S tier: 2 (1 MI, 1 ID) -- A tier: 2 (1 TX, 1 AR) -- B tier: 4 (1 OK, 1 MO, 1 FL, 1 KS) -- C tier: 11 (2 TN, 2 CA, 1 PA, 1 NH, 1 NY, 1 WI, 1 MT, 1 ID, 1 KS) -- D tier: 4 (1 AL, 1 TN, 1 UT, 1 AR) -- NOT A CASTLE: 6 (1 CA, 1 PA, 1 WA, 1 MT, 1 AR, 1 OK) Extra Info On Some of the Castles: -- Fort Montgomery is the second attempt to build a fort in the area. The first, named "Fort Blunder," was built in Canada instead of the US, so they abandoned it and moved it. -- Kuna Castle is just a wedding set, it's not a full castle. High-profile people sometimes do cool stuff there though, like the governor or a "The Voice" contestant. -- Milam Castle, the for-auction Old English Tudor-inspired home, was built by Joe Milam for the purpose of being a BALLER party place, car storage facility, and a souped-up mancave. It shouldn't be judged as a castle, it should be judged as a party facility. -- Castle von Frandsen (one of the S tier castles) has been worked on for 17 years and counting, due to the builders doing it all by hand. Its designer and his client worked on the design with LEGOS back in 2005, which is undeniably based. This is my application to be in a future StarvHarv video, but don't tell him

Depends on the what you consider a castle really. You mean the "fort castles" or the "home catsles". Atleast in ny language we have 2 seperate words for that and "home castles" were many time built without the forts The only definition for that is: very big nice place where the aristocracy (count levelnor higher) lived. Barons only had fort castles. Counts and kings had home castles
