I looked at Google maps. How does trash collection work here? The looks of it you'll have to drive your curbside trashcans all the way to the bottom 1 mile away and then go back to home. And then what if there is a medical emergency? This looks like it should just be a tourist attraction and not a house. Maybe a hollywood movie location.
It's not a home for old people that's probably why they are selling it. You burn trash, compost and the rest you store it until you have enough and take it out to a landfill. You have 58 Acres I'm sure you can find a little corner to store trash.
@@jacksonrelaxin3425 Did you watch the entire report? "Only a few soldered steel windows open". And did you see how far the windows opened... so much for ventilation 🤔 Jamul spends alot of time over 95°. That would be a sweltering stone tomb 🔥
Stone stays cool in summer an warm in the winter that particular stone jack used Aldo I lived on a ranch 2 miles from that castle back in 2000 the year
They need to remodel the inside bc No A/C in the middle of JAMUL ? You’ll die from heat stroke lol no lie . That should drop the cost to $650k. But good showing 👍
@@ADubTheGrizzyyes it is! I’m from South Carolina and lived in SD for 5 years while in the Navy, left last year but I rarely turned on my AC. This location is desert and no trees or water close by so it would be a little warmer than SD.
@0:14 - 0:15, the large foundation crack going horizontally makes me wonder if that's why its being sold, and if the castle will slide off into the canyon below at some point.
That's actually great price. 58acres you can legit hunt from your castle or shoot arrows. Whatever fits your needs. Bet you can throw a mean fucking party and host some insane parties / weddings for investment purposes too. I just purchased a home here in hawaii, 1.2M, 2100sqft livable space, 1/2 acre lot. To think i could've gotten a castle with this money.
Squatters can’t get food if they live there. Do you think they will choose to starve so they can claim the place? Look how far away it is. Where are they getting money to gas the car?
@@jongarcia982 any squatter that likes to grow their own food, can by all means show up in any government empty land and claim it as their own. But I don’t see them doing it.
For the right person (I am almost the guy), this could be a terrific deal. Discrete chilling such as small fountains in each room or some other non-ducted cooled feature could help make this place livable. I regret this isn't in reach for me to make a responsible offer.
You would have to have Air conditioning.and. Fix all the windows that don't open first but if you put in a big solar system with back up generator it would be great 👍
What is royalty? Do you know? If the castle has a dungeon in use, you have to be royalty. It's a government building. There may be other stipulations, but that is non-negotiable.
The way the reporters were *NOT* helping to sell this castle…haha. In all seriousness, it’s practically a steal in this market. Just gotta work out the trash collecting situation, prepare for a whole journey doubling back when you forget things and avoid turning into molten lava in that heat.
No central A/C or heat…I’m out! It’s a nice statement house, but I’d expect more amenities, better furnishings, and a kitchen update to boot!! The owner put a lot of sweat and life to realize his dream house for he and his wife. I certainly hope they fully enjoyed the fruits of all his efforts.
There's something inherently creepy about a castle that's for sale and that the recent owners not only built it with not as many modern amenities but they themselves but died in it. Feels unsettling and doesn't feel like a home rather a tomb.
I mean it's not bad if you have alot of money to splurge and can probably add another bedroom possibly. Or add to the castle... depends if your wealthy and you can add heating and AC, and a few other add ons. 🤷
Great work by original owner but that’s far out of the city. The lack of rooms means renovating which will cost more money being outside the city. The land is probably the best part but it doesn’t look very useable, still if I were rich I’d buy it.
I saw this for sale a several years ago on zillow...it looked in really bad shape and unfinished... Still trying to sell this property... Something is wrong with this property...
while i see what you are saying theres something appealing about the idea of one man on a budget with limited tools and just a basic plan creating something thats taken decades to get to where it is over what looks to be really more just a castle themed house built by contractors.
56 acres wow very good price , but what kind of land are you getting? That looked very rocky , can you farm it ? How do you get in or out is there a driveway , or do need a Jeep or a Humvee ? There's no ac 😯 so in summer its very hot 🔥 ,and in fall/winter you might freeze 🥶 ? How do you get the utilities , there's no pool . we'll I don't think its such a bargain . 🤨
Not clue being negative of such a cool castle. . Always news casters negative. Yeah not cool I have cache condo. No view. Hoa dues cost 600. Monthly. No land. 1,200 . Now who is giving a better deal. ? Oh yes. Mine 2 bedroom too . Shame on you. Advertising than try to mock wow !!!!!!
I actually would buy it just for its surrounding geography however my wife would murder me before I could swipe my finger on the phone to transfer funds.
This is still less than the price of most single family homes in San Diego.
$1.25 million for 2 small bedrooms is a disappointment. The 58 acres is great tho 😊
LOLOL, our little house of 1000sq. feet, some 30 miles from this place, on a bit less than 1/4 acre, would sell for about $750k. This is a bargain.
I'm willing to give him 5 cows an 2 sheeps for the property
I have some magic beans.
Perfect 😄 🐄 +🐑 = 🏰
Coyotes would get the sheep, lions the cows.
My first daughter

Don't kid yourself 😂 If you want those conveniences you can live in the city
Dude, people live in the country all the time. This isn't anything new. Ud figure it out or go live in the city.

Im going to buy it and crown myself the King of California. This means im exempt from all laws and taxes.
Greasy Newsom will not be having that
LOL
*CHUMP20TOLIFE* 🇺🇸
Talk to Emperor Norton about how to manage that.
You could charge taxes on your vassals
Arrrrr !!! This be true. ☠☠☠
Dude that's a bargain in San Diego. Nice little starter fixer-upper.
Lmao hell no
@@domk2993 i mean the land itself kinda worth it
@@domk2993 Yes it is. LOL. For a 59 ACRE lot in California realistically would be over 3 million already.
Nothing to fix - does it have AC?!
@@jeannerogers7085 The video said it did not have AC
Some houses in city heights are worth that much.
No air conditioning in Jamul?. Good luck with that haha. Definitely going to need.
Thick stone walls don’t radiate heat as much as flimsy cookie cutter houses. You can also ventilate it much more easily.
@@jacksonrelaxin3425 I guess so. Jamul gets really got through.
@@jacksonrelaxin3425 Did you watch the entire report? "Only a few soldered steel windows open". And did you see how far the windows opened... so much for ventilation 🤔

The new owner can definitely get air conditioning installed. So nbd

Believe it or not, San Diego is survivable without AC
The materiel of this structure will be easier to keep cool in than a cheaper made house.
@@ADubTheGrizzyyes it is! I’m from South Carolina and lived in SD for 5 years while in the Navy, left last year but I rarely turned on my AC. This location is desert and no trees or water close by so it would be a little warmer than SD.
@@ADubTheGrizzyNot Jamul.
The spiral stairs to the second bedroom and roof. What a nightmare.
Stone isn't a common building material in California; it doesn't do too well in earthquakes.

Having trouble selling this property, a squatter has moved in with paperwork, saying he lives there
Squatters can’t get food if they live there. Do you think they will choose to starve so they can claim the place? Look how far away it is. Where are they getting money to gas the car?
@@jongarcia982 squatters can’t get there without money for gas. How are they gonna get food? It’s deserted around there.
@@liliachan3753 There are all types of squatters. The squatters here they are planting their own food...its turning into a hippie commune
@@jongarcia982 any squatter that likes to grow their own food, can by all means show up in any government empty land and claim it as their own. But I don’t see them doing it.
It will be probably demolished and replaced with duplexes
Probably high rise condos with no parking
some soviet communal housing would look great in such a pristine landscape
Depending on the zoning, but I agree with the demolish part.
Perish the thought!
Why demo? Air bnb it and use the rest of the 58 acres to duplex something.
IN ORANGE COUNTY THAT'S AN AVERAGE PRICE
That’s a good deal!
Those kitchen countertops are going to have to replaced. You would think they would went with a stone to go with the castle theme.
For the right person (I am almost the guy), this could be a terrific deal. Discrete chilling such as small fountains in each room or some other non-ducted cooled feature could help make this place livable.
I regret this isn't in reach for me to make a responsible offer.
You are paying for the land. The house is just a plus.
No A/C, most windows don’t open. Sounds like my old house in Bremerton, WA.
that’s a good deal in San Diego
They're actually really smart . They know it's gonna end up selling for way more.
It would cost more than 1.25 million to build that today.
Those materials are really expensive in California.
Unbelievable how cheap it is, will sell by Friday
You would have to have Air conditioning.and. Fix all the windows that don't open first but if you put in a big solar system with back up generator it would be great 👍
What is royalty? Do you know?
If the castle has a dungeon in use, you have to be royalty. It's a government building. There may be other stipulations, but that is non-negotiable.
$1.25m? In San Diego County? That's less than a condo in the hood. Bargain!
you’re right it’s almost the same price as a condo in the hood
The way the reporters were *NOT* helping to sell this castle…haha.
In all seriousness, it’s practically a steal in this market. Just gotta work out the trash collecting situation, prepare for a whole journey doubling back when you forget things and avoid turning into molten lava in that heat.

I'm going to build my own one day
Future air B and B
That's gotta be WAY out there in east SD county at that price.
Jack will haunt you 4 ever if Minorities buy the castle 🏰 🤣

Spring water? Rattlesnakes? Septic system?
🏰 ~ Pretty good deal for the price & all that land re 58 acres!!!
Great work by original owner but that’s far out of the city. The lack of rooms means renovating which will cost more money being outside the city. The land is probably the best part but it doesn’t look very useable, still if I were rich I’d buy it.

This house has no master bedroom?
It is beautiful !!!!! I love it and wish i can live there with a king of my own
This will keep SWAT out 😮
Seeing this version, it seems to be a better and a safer build than Scotty’s castle in Colorado which is a tourist accident trap 😮
while i see what you are saying theres something appealing about the idea of one man on a budget with limited tools and just a basic plan creating something thats taken decades to get to where it is over what looks to be really more just a castle themed house built by contractors.
The Scotty’s castle I know of is in Death Valley.
Sorry but that’s nothing compared to the Castle in Alpine. I couldn’t imagine how much that one is worth
2.3 million is the Zillow estimate. But that castle is 50x better than this one. Just doesn’t get you 50 acres of land
Money doesn't buy you class or good taste. I thought it did, but I now stand firmly corrected...
In LA county you would get a lot less for that price.
If it were near the beach it would go for maybe 4 million. Great home for living in a bad part of town.
I’d buy it in a heartbeat!
That's literally the average price of a house here in SD
Must be a bit toasty during the summer months...
By eclectic, did you mean tacky ?
56 acres wow very good price , but what kind of land are you getting? That looked very rocky , can you farm it ? How do you get in or out is there a driveway , or do need a Jeep or a Humvee ?

Where the the flat screen tv
That's a nerd palace. I miss riding dirt bikes in hose hills.
Ah man, I'm still poor. Dang. 🤦♂

THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!
I've been to Jamul many times and never seen a castle.
Thats a great deal esp these days 58 acres!!!
1.25 is all ? You can’t get a house in San Diego for that.
You're not supposed to showcase the secret passage. It's not a secret anymore.
This will either become a museum gimmick or get preservation status … or be destroyed.
Chaldean castle?
Did anyone buy this?
So it was designed by a 10-year-old ? No moat ? 🫤
I'm going to buy it and produce medieval theme adult entertainment
lmao
You better use the line: "My naked weapon is out. Quarrel! I will back thee"
Beautiful lawn
"You don't have to be royalty " just filthy rich
Where's Repunzel?
Reminds me of the castle in Malibu.
Good luck getting home owners insurance, especially nowadays
No AC in Jamul!
It needs a moat w/crocodiles 🐊
No heat, no A/C, 750# doors... BUT 58 acres and no neighbors is a big plus 😂
I like it. Needs furniture to be a home
OMG! I wish I could afford that.
Owner is probably haunting that place.
So thats the house that jack built! 😅
No moat? Damn, guess i'll keep looking.
This will definitely sell.
It better be haunted..
holy grail? no thanks. we already have one!
I want it!
And my name is also Jack!
Is it permitted?
Phil Spector's castle in Alhambra is way nicer!
I would buy it and air bnb it.
Cindercrete blocks in a “castle” nah
Maybe Nicolas Cage would be interested in this. 🤔
I would love to buy it but the payments would have to be in my price range. I want one. 😊
Their no Wi-Fi here
Stop complaining.
Good things come in two's.
About as ridiculous as the Winchester House.
where's the moat and sharks?
Zombie apocalypse proof.
Those welds look like dog dodo
I actually would buy it just for its surrounding geography however my wife would murder me before I could swipe my finger on the phone to transfer funds.
I am interesting to buy it. I ❤ it
Thats less than a track home in San Diego
But it’s Jamul.
You can add air conditioning. Wow
SUGGESTION: ZILLOW GONE WILD!!!!
lol: the metal bed that won't move
I would buy it if i could
