I think all of us could say that at one point in our lives, we thought about how cool it would be to live in a castle. You might have even pretended as a kid to be a king, queen, knight, or jester - in fact, there are some adults that spend quite a bit of time and money pretending that. Well, you don't have to pretend anymore - here is your chance to live in your own real-life castle. There are only two stipulations - you gotta move to Illinois, and you'll need to come up with about $2 million.

Live Like a King!

This modern-day castle features five bedrooms, six bathrooms, and a total of 7,546 square feet. Other royal amenities include a private pool (both in-ground and indoors), indoor and outdoor hot tubs, a balcony, a wrap-around deck, a gazebo, a fountain (and a naked man standing in it), and parking for up to 12 vehicles. And like a real castle, this home is surrounded by a moat featuring real, live alligators. Not really, I made that up - I just wanted to see if you were paying attention. The castle is surrounded by trees which I imagine provide some much-coveted privacy.

According to Zillow, this unique home located at 3 Saville Row in Barrington, Illinois (even the address sounds royal) is listed at $1.9 million.

Take a Royal (Virtual) Tour

Take a minute to look through the pictures below. I found myself saying "whoa" several times. The outside obviously has the appearance of a castle, but the inside appears to have all of the modern-day comforts you can think of. It all seems pretty normal until, BAM, you reach that one bedroom - you'll know it when you see it.

Illinois Town Will Make You Feel Like You are in the Movie HONEY, I SHRUNK THE KIDS

Remember the 80s classic "Honey, I Shrunk the Kids"? What's it like to feel like a tiny ant looking up at the giant world around you? There's a small town only two hours from the tri-state that is home to over 20 giant items. Being surrounded by them definitely gives you the perspective of an itty bitty bug.

Lacey Marsh and her family visited the small town during spring break this year and shared her photos with us. She said, "It's a really neat place! And people were very friendly."
