For four years this gut lived behind a wall of hay bales and under a blue tarp while he build a castle. He waited out the four year period that his neighbors were allowed to object to the building and when time ran out he unveiled it. The local zoning board is calling 'foul' and demanding he tear down the castle.
Be sure to look at the same location in Google Maps to see it still under the tarps.
Many thanks to mlc1us for confirming the find by kludging together the BEV view!
