This extraordinary estate, dubbed Dromborg Castle, is located at 2991 South City Lake Road in Fayetteville, AR. It was built in 2008 by Masonry Construction. It replicates a Scottish castle and was built with varying architectural styles, which add to its authentic look. In some areas, the home looks 500 years old; in some places it appears to be 300 years old, and 100 years old in others.

For almost three years, a team of 12 to 24 masons was onsite. They built the home with 4 million pounds of stone, and used another 1 million pounds in the landscaping. The stone was collected from an 800-acre area just south of the jobsite.

This 13,000+ square foot rusticated castle is nestled within one hundred wooded acres with spectacular views overlooking the Ozark Mountains. Magnificent iron gates open through beautifully crafted stone walls to the private driveway which gracefully winds up the mountain to the estate. This opulent home provides the perfect opportunity to enjoy privately or to entertain on a grand scale.  Each room is detailed to perfection including exquisite hand-carved and hand-rubbed moldings, deeply fluted columns, coffered ceilings, antique lighting, and high ceilings. The entire breadth of the home exemplifies the unique essence of luxury and majesty. Upon entering the massive White Oak Dutch door, a sense of warmth and comfort permeates the opulence of this beautiful home, boasting a dining room with seating for 14+, a formal sitting area, kitchen and breakfast area. Chefs will appreciate the vast array of commercial grade appliances found in the richly detailed and efficiently designed kitchen.  The stately master suite occupies its own wing, offering a sumptuous bed chamber, his and her dressing rooms, and a luxurious sitting room. Perfectly proportioned entablatures, tudor arches, large crown detail and complex distressed finishes distinguish these regal quarters.  The Corinthian Order defines the Cherry Library with deeply fluted columns, exquisite cabinetry detail, custom palmette frieze and hand-carved moldings which line the rich Cherry wood beams. Other reception rooms ideal for distinctive entertaining include a Chapel, the Men’s Lounge, Map Room, Wine Cellar, 4th floor Observation Deck and multiple  heated/cooled Garages for 6+ cars. Outside there are manicured grounds, fountains, pool, loggia, courtyard, 3 tee boxes and golf green. Classic Old World Architecture with state of the art amenities such as smart home technology, commercial grade elevator and heated floors and driveways.  In addition to the main house there is a 3,800+/- square foot guest house.

It is listed at $14,300,000.

This  home located at 101 Lakesouth Terrace in Hot Springs, Arkansas.

It’s built by Ferguson Custom Homes, which is a well-known company in the area. It was built last year, and it offers 7,912 sq ft. 5 bedrooms and 7 baths. The lot offers 475′ of frontage.

The house gives a regal castle-like impression at the front. Looks to be one of the great homes you see in the affluent communities in New England. On the back it’s more dull, but this I guess is a matter of taste. Looking inside I don’t get the feeling of a luxury home, it feels more like a family home. Guess a young professional local couple with a few kids will like it here. What do you think about it?

The broker’s informative comments:

Each of his custom homes offer a unique style of fine craftmanship, along with a first-class architectural design. Working along with Rick is his lovely wife, Deanna, who enjoys assisting with all aspects of the home design. Deanna has a real knack for design & complements Rick’s intricate and exquisite building style, making this duo a dream team. The fascinating couple truly love what they do and have an overflowing love for life as you’ll find very apparent with all the extra design features offered in their homes.

Perfectly sited on a level piece of property and surrounded by water, this stunning French Chateau-style Manor is a rare find with its panoramic lake & mountain views. When you open the front door and take a few steps in you realize the house has been aligned in the exact path of these natural elements–it is on the precise projection point for maximum view of the land, water, hills and sky.

The entry level contains the kitchen, butler’s pantry, dining areas, two living areas, guest suite, and the master retreat. The second level is made for entertainment and fun. It includes a huge media room, three large bedrooms each having their own private bathroom, and another large playroom with five built-in beds (you have to see this!). This upper level is ideal if you have children or grand kids.

This beautiful architect-inspired home is built without compromise on a prestigious point on the beautiful Lake Hamilton, and reflects only the very best. Once in a rare while will a truly magnificent home such as this be available.

Asking price is $4,899,000
