Here’s yet another chance to be the ruler of your very own castle!

A custom-built, 18,777-square-foot castle in Woodstock, CT, listed for the princely sum of $29 million is the week’s most popular home.

The extravagant estate known as Chris Mark Castle has had an intriguing run on the market over the past decade. It originally debuted for $45 million in 2014, then reduced to $35 million in 2021. The following year, it went up to $60 million. Now, it’s available for less than half that asking price. While the grand estate continues to grab headlines and clicks, it has yet to secure a buyer.

Also getting attention this week were an affordable tiny home in Florida, a New York residence that was a former church/town hall/duck farm, and a “Pagoda in the Sky” in Oregon.

Just scroll down for a full look at this week’s 10 most popular homes.
