So; you want to build a castle, eh?: A Pittsburgh, PA area castle:

A Pittsburgh, PA area castle:

Char Branstetter and Cara McCandless are a Pittsburgh area couple who've decided to build their own castle. They've also put together a website featuring the design they started with as well as construction photos. See the "Builders" links to the left.

Edit: Here's a link to their site: http://www.pitt.edu/~caram/castleindex.htm

EDIT II: I've emailed the owners a few times and have received no reply. Sorry castle-builders, it doesn't appear that there is any information forthcoming on this castle's construction or history.
