The listing for the two-unit Bayview “castle” at 53-55 Pomona Street, which is not to be confused with the Bayview castle at 1540 Newhall Street nor the Albion Castle 881 Innes Avenue, has been withdrawn from the MLS without a reported sale.
Having traded hands for $880,000 in 2006, the Pomona Street property was foreclosed upon in 2008 and resold for $330,000 in 2012. And having since been remodeled, the property returned to the market listed for $995,000 last month.
The Albion Castle, which was purchased by a mortgage broker for $2,090,000 in 2005 and outfitted with a $10,592 “throne,” resold for $820,000 in late 2011.

Well there’s your problem, the color scheme is clearly meant for a Stark.
“We were looking for a bigger drawbridge. My kids need a bigger drawbridge.”
“My client demands more gargoyles.”
“Look, we really like the place, we just can’t envision where we would hang our tapestries.”
I also don’t think that garage door can hold up against wildling raiders.
And the dungeon was way too small for this neighborhood.
Could not resist:
Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade: “This is a castle and we have many tapestries, and if you are a Scottish lord then I am Mickey Mouse!”
I like the Franklin Castle‘s stone finishes more.
Hold on…so
2005 Sold $2M
2006 Sold $880K
2008 foreclosed
2011 Resold $820K
2012 Sold $330K
Remodeled and listed $995K
Wow!
No, the 2005 and 2011 numbers are for a different castle in the Bayview (the “Albion Castle”). As absurd as that sounds.
