    Default Château de Burnand in Burgundy

    Château de Burnand, a 13th-century castle in Burgundy, is frequently called the “Castle of Sleeping Beauty” due to its fanciful style. It is on the market for $2.2 million.

    I could get with the majority of this, allowing for a lot of art (like all the art) and furniture to be swapped out.

    It smells musty just reading it.

    I love that attic-looking room. The exterior is incredible. If you could go in, tear out all the stuff that's been put into the house in the last 50 years and just get it back to the woodwork and stone, it could be amazing.

    This one seems worth the price.

    There are a lot of things I'd change, but I wouldn't die if I had to live there as is.

    Not that i'll ever have that kind of money but 2 million seems like a steal. I'd throw everything inside into the moat and start over.

    I hate everything about this. It's dark, dingy and cold looking while also being too cluttered for my taste.

    I would buy this in a heartbeat, if I had that kind of money. I would also try to buy the cow painting too. The only think I would change, would be the furniture, some of the light fixtures, and maybe the dining room ceiling.

    The bathtub...so close to the unrailed stairs. Not only would I be falling down stairs, I would be doing so wet and naked!

    I love it. It is like a childhood fantasy come true.
