Live like royalty in this 19th century castle that’s for sale in Kansas

You don’t have to be royalty to live in your very own castle, and you certainly don’t have to move to Europe. There’s a castle for sale in Kansas — and it’s more than 125 years old.

The English-style limestone castle at 2001 Poyntz Ave. in Manhattan — about 120 miles west of Kansas City — was built in 1894 and sits on roughly 1.5 acres, according to the listing by Weis Realty Executives.

“No cost was spared,” in the construction of the 7,721-square-foot home, which has also undergone an authentic restoration and expansion, the listing states.

The home even features stained glass windows and a wine a vault.

The castle boasts 4 bedrooms and 4.5 bathrooms, according to the listing. But it also includes a 1- bedroom, 1-bathroom loft above the garage as well as a carriage house with another 2 bedrooms and a bathroom.

The grounds are stunning via a new driveway that “winds through the beautifully landscaped grounds with signature wrought iron entrance gates, a gazebo and marble statues.”

All in all, the property has 7 bedrooms and 7 bathrooms and is listed for a cool $1,495,000.
