Oct 15th, 2018: Chateau Artisan

If you’re looking for a warm place, you know, a place to get away from winter, maybe something like this castle in Homestead, Florida.



8 bedrooms, 7.5 baths, 19,222 sq ft, on 14 acres, in a 5 acre private lake and royal gardens. Grand wrought iron gated entry followed
by mammoth wooden privacy gates, long tree-lined drive, obelisk focal point, Koi pond, covered patio, pool.
The 3-story Chateau has enormous kitchen, impact glass, full-house generator, boat house, BBQ gazebo and sleeping gazebo.



Of course all the neighbors are all farmers as this used to be a tomato field.



They wanted $12.8 million in 2012, then $10.9 million in 2013, but unfortunately for you it’s off the market right now.

I don't know, I'm really looking for something with a drawbridge.

It's not even on a bus route.

Hasn't got a lot going for it really.

Probably high humidity and mosquitoes.

Really cool, until of course one of Florida's sinkholes opens up and drains the pool then eats all or part of the house.

It's higher than 50% of the land area of The Netherlands.

I'll pass. For that kind of money, I expect a garage. Or at least a carport. I don't want my car sitting out under the sun, getting too hot inside.

No problem newtimer, after the chauffeur drops you at the house he/she will take the car and put it away at the gatehouse.

I was a bit surprised to see no boathouse or rowboats.
