There's a Castle in the neighborhood

For those of you who don't live here in the Atlanta area I thought I'd show you a picture of one of the wildest houses I've ever seen.
This is a real 1,700 square foot home owned by a local retired trucker and his wife. There was a story today in the AJC about this home.

Our realtor, Daniel Clotfeltor, told us that this gentleman's wife always wanted to live in a castle so he built her one. Here is an excerpt from the AJC story today.
"

Thirty years ago, the McLaughlins built their dream home on two unincorporated acres at the intersection of Arnold Mill and Cagle roads. Rudy McLaughlin's ancestors had a castle in Scotland in the 1600s, but he couldn't afford his own on a trucker's salary.

So the McLaughlins built a miniature castle. It's 1,700 square feet of stone, surrounded by a miniature moat and traversable only via miniature drawbridges.

Their home has been one of the most gawked-at structures for a generation of Northsiders.

Folks stop and take pictures of the place every day, said Ruth McLaughlin, a cheerful sort who's 75 years into a deep Southern accent. And if she happens to be outside, they'll pepper her with questions about her little castle in the suburbs.

What do they ask?

"Same things you're askin'," she said.

There's no deadline for the McLaughlins or Turner to make a choice about which city they want to belong to. But if they can't decide in the next few months, Roswell and Milton will hammer out a deal to see who goes where."
