A Picture is Worth a Million Words
The beloved and storied Wayne Castle is a sad old girl right now.
Circumstances find it now owned by a bank and up for sale. A sad story for a house with a storied past.
Built by by the Dunham family in the late 19thC, it has been the beacon and exclamation point in Wayne Illinois since the day it was built.
Several families have had dreams of restoring the castle to its original splendor and creating a one of a kind family home. Dreams take alot of money. Dear Husbola and I know. Just ask us what our contractor wanted to charge us for wooden switch plates for our new addition.
Now the property is listed with a real estate company. It can be yours for a cool One Million Eight Hundred Thousand. Add another Several Million--and it can be a Beautiful Old Girl again.
Buy it and then contact us. We'll pop for the new switchplates.
