Once upon a time, in the great state of New Jersey, a man and his wife decided to build a castle. But this wasn’t just any castle. This castle was special. On the property of the 11 acres they purchased, a 9,000 square foot mansion, based on the architecture of a medieval Norman castle, was built along with a 6,000 square foot carriage house. The couple would call this home for more than twenty years.
