So, the listing for this house calls it a 'Castle'.

It is a 4 bedroom, 4 bathroom house on a 60 x 150 foot lot at 1108 Premier Way SW in Upper Mount Royal neighbourhood of Calgary.

I guess some could say it looks like a castle.

The reader who sent it in was getting more of a Shining vibe...

Which I totally get from the inside.

But the first thing I thought of when I saw the exterior was more of a wedding cake...

Whatever it is that you see from this house, I think we can all agree that it probably needs some work.

The listing says it was built in 1946 and I don't think much has changed since then (or at least since the 70s).

But from the sounds of the listing, they are trying to sell it as a move-right-in house.

The asking price is $1,750,000.

If your interested, while we wait for a price drop, here is some interesting behind the scenes footage from filming The Shining...

P.S. Speaking of knives, I have never seen this type of pull down knife/spice storage before...

Good idea.
