About this property

The castle came to me in a dream while I was chatting with my late wife, Jennifer Faustman. Sadly, she passed away in 2014 just after childbirth. She has visited my dreams regularly and guided me thru dreams ever since she passed away.

Actually, our life is full of divine intervention so much that we started a "JENI FACTOR" folder on my computer to document all of the impossibly perfect outcomes through the construction process. We look forward to sharing and displaying all the work Jeni did from above.

As you can see, the interior is finished and gorgeous, ready to enjoy. We're ready to finish our exterior projects once the weather allows... I hope you can imagine the exterior, glowing with Frosty Effects! (that's the name of my construction company)

It took me 5 years to finish it with no bank assistance or a labor force. I'm especially thankful I had already mastered every trade and had a degree that taught me the science of every construction topic. It's absolutely gorgeous here, NOTHING is normal, yet it all comes together perfectly.

My AWESOME mom and my little MINI 8yr old castle builder were the only laborers available to help me, so I kicked ass, working long hours all day every day for 5 years...

The views stretch back a million years, so building the outdoor living space was an absolute pleasure. The 4,200+ SF rooftop oasis and the 3,500 SF of decks overlooking the lake are the perfect vantage point no matter what you want to see.
Sunrises and sunsets are epic here, not to mention, the STARS, and falling asleep on the roof... perfect!

Every area and every room in the house will inspire you, the fact is, we built everything in/on the house from scratch (except for the granite and solid surface countertops provided by Tatanka Stone of Omaha!)

Master chef kitchen and chef's pantry
1000sf kitchen area
1100sf custom bsmt bar/theater
1600sf BALLROOM

3 Master Suites, and 3 other giant bedrooms to choose from
The final stage of construction (the exterior pretty stuff) is to start in spring 2023. We look forward to the final curb appeal and landscaping including the water features ie the terraced yard with a planted natural pollinator field, the moat, (maybe draw bridge), the radiant heated driveway snow melt system, rivers, etc.

Also looking forward to the outdoor living areas with a water vortex fire pit, hardscaped hot tub, and natural oasis swimming pool as well as the landscaping and walkways to enjoy it all.

Amazon Castle experience

I came to town for a wedding and was surprised to stumble upon this very welcoming beautiful home. everything was updated ,clean, and very nice! Rooms were very put together and it was very comfortable and felt right at home. The scenery was beautiful, a good reliable place. We had lots of fun and enjoyed our stay, if you have a chance to book it do it, it’s so worth it!!!

Castle in Denton

The owner is still building this castle. There were tools and material in every room of this house. The curb appeal is poor. There is no yard or pool. It is priced high for the condition. The owner did try hard to get everything ready but it was not ready when we got there and they worked all day the second day to get the theater room ready

About the host

Hosted by Michael (Frosty) Faustman

My name is Frosty of Frosty Effects Construction. My wife Jeni and I purchased this land to build us a forever home.
Tragically, Jeni passed away following the birth of our son Robbie, our first child, before this dream was realized.
Jeni loved people and sharing what we had with others. She was SO GENEROUS! The new dream was to build the castle for our families and share it for the enjoyment of others.
While it has taken longer than anticipated, Robbie and I are ready for you to experience what we've built.

Why they chose this property

After a long week of work and on a very warm summer day, Jeni and I decided to take our big dogs (Sampson an English Mastiff, Keyla his mom, and Junior- a very active golden retriever) to Conestoga Lake for a swim. We noticed a "Property for Sale" sign directly across the road from the lake and took a detour to walk the property. The dogs LOVED it.

As we walked through the tall grass I found a rock the size of a loaf of bread. Across the field, Jeni was throwing sticks for JR and she tripped on a rock. We both picked them up so we wouldn't find them someday while mowing. When we came back together we discovered the two pieces fit together perfectly. The broken edge formed a perfect heart when held together. The rock even held itself together when we reunited them.

We quickly began inquiries to buy the land. It was 8.9 acres of natural grasses and foliage with no chance of anyone building anything between us and Conestoga Lake State Park. it is such a great view of the lake. So many options, perfect for our family and dogs to enjoy and grow. We signed the purchase papers on my birthday. My birthday is July 12, hers was July 14. It was the perfect start to our family, buying land just before our September wedding...

What makes this property unique

Having a Construction Management Degree and loving the design/build aspects of my knowledge, my mom and I set out to create a unique structure based on Value Engineering and ALL my creativity. We originally planned it for a multi-generational home where our families could enjoy living together but with plenty of room to be away from each other.

But life happens and circumstances change and you evolve.

We're proud of the evolution of this castle with the open concept living and kitchen areas, large bedrooms, bathrooms, entertainment areas, social/activity gathering areas, and private nooks to get away.

Enjoying the fresh outdoors is easy with the 4 deck/patio areas and the rooftop with a future covered kitchen. The castle provides private lounging all with awesome sunrises and sunsets.
The final stage of the outdoor living areas with a fire pit, hot tub, and swimming pool starting in spring 2023 as well as the landscaping and walkways to enjoy it all.
