California Castle Worthy of a Disney Fairy Tale Hits the Market for $29.5 Million—Complete With Gold Accents and Shimmering Chandeliers

A stunning California castle that was tailor-made for modern-day royalty has hit the market for a staggering $29.5 million—a price that includes all manner of regal design features, from shimmering chandeliers to gold leaf accents.

Though the luxury Thousand Oaks dwelling was built in 2001, it has a truly historical feel, thanks in large part to the extraordinary level of attention paid to every design detail.

Known as Chateau Plaisance, meaning a castle of pleasure or delight, the property—which is listed by Sher Toor of Compass—is described as "the pinnacle of luxury, privacy, and grandeur."

The castle is nestled in the prestigious Sherwood Country Club and boasts six bedrooms and 9.5 bathrooms in 14,113 square feet of living space.

While the luxury—and sheer size—of its interior dwarfs most other homes, the property's exterior cannot be overlooked.

The home is situated on a 2.95-acre lot and offers "breathtaking views of the spectacular Santa Monica Mountains and the renowned Jack Nicklaus Signature Golf Course," according to the listing.

The dwelling is surrounded by "box-hedged gardens filled with thousands of roses, lush lawns adorned with life-sized statuary, and cobblestone pathways leading to a striking 52-foot reflection pond where bronze horses appear to gallop through cascading water," adds the listing.

"A serene large infinity pool and spa with a waterfall, a koi pond, and an ornate iron gazebo overlooking the valley complete this enchanting outdoor retreat."

Upon entering the home, guests are greeted by a grand staircase that opens up to a room with tiled flooring, a grand piano, marble columns, chandeliers, and a mural on the ceiling.

"A grand entrance welcomes you into the rotunda, where a dazzling Baccarat chandelier, hand-painted murals, and a sweeping marble staircase with a gold-leafed iron banister set the tone for the opulence within," the listing notes.

Another room in the home features the same hand-painted mural, gold crown molding, and three chandeliers.

There is also a large mirror, which sits atop a sunken fireplace to keep guests cozy.

Atop the staircase, guests are met with a selection of stunning artworks that sit in marble frames, which match the columns on the first floor.

On the first level of the home, there is a library covered in dark wood flooring and a matching wood ceiling.

The library features several windows that allow natural light to illuminate the books. It also boasts multiple seating areas, ideal for cozying up with your favorite novel.

There is also a wooden fireplace that perfectly blends into the custom-built shelving and adds another cozy touch to the space.

But the library offers much more than just books—there is also a hidden bar.

"The richly paneled library, complete with parquet flooring, a fireplace, and a hidden bar, offers a cozy escape," according to the listing.

One of the bathrooms matches the elegant theme and comes complete with a large mirror and marble vanity.

The dining room features two custom Waterford chandeliers. There is also a dark wood table that seats 20.

The chef's kitchen is equipped with two oversized islands, antiqued cabinetry, parquet flooring, and state-of-the-art appliances. The adjacent breakfast nook leads to an inviting family room with yet another cozy fireplace.

The second level of the home holds the primary bedroom, which has a chandelier amid a fabric ceiling. Large French doors open to a balcony. The en suite bathroom features marble columns, a chandelier, a marble soaking tub, and lavish his-and-her vanities.

There is also a large walk-in closet adjacent to the bathroom.

"Additional guest suites, a Carriage House apartment, and a hidden third-floor bonus space provide ample accommodations," the listing adds.

"The completed third floor features four separate rooms, providing endless possibilities for a home theater, gym, art studio, or private retreat."

Outside, there is a glamorous pool house, a mini chateau with a great room, cozy fireplace, kitchen, and two bathrooms.

"Two gated entrances lead to an elegant courtyard with an imported French fountain, while a separate guest parking area and the Grand Plaza can accommodate up to 150 guests," the listing states.

"Gated guest parking is conveniently located near the charming greenhouse and the elegant archway leading to the Grand Plaza."
