This Massive Ontario Home Is The Buckingham Palace Of Cottages & Costs Under $600K

If there are any former royals out there looking for a bargain...
Staff Writer

If all the recent talk of royals has got you itching for your own private castle, this Ontario house on the St. Lawrence River might be perfect for you.

Built in 1860, this massive home has all the history that a monarch could want plus all the coziness and affordability of a rural Ontario cottage.

Located in Cornwall, Ontario, this home has 15 rooms — more than enough to fit an entire royal family inside (but not including the American cousins).

It's also located just steps away from the St. Lawrence River, which would make a fitting moat for any castle.

The interior of the house is a mix of modern and rustic, complete with a fireplace for cold winter nights.

And the wooden dining room table is great for hosting any feasts with foreign dignitaries and ambassadors.

Speaking of royal, one of the house's four bedrooms even has another living room in the same room.

And though the backyard might not be as large as the Buckingham Palace grounds, at 3155 sq. ft., the property size is certainly nothing to sniff at.
