A castle-style home in northwest Fort Worth is on the market for under $5 million. Situated on the shores of Eagle Mountain Lake, it's a gated estate, clad in stone, with turrets and towers, sitting on 3.09 acres of waterfront land.
Named Facade Nord, the home was built in 1998 by the late Eugene de Bullet, an attorney who passed away in January 2025 at age 81. According to Mansion Global, de Bullet designed the home after Buchanan Castle, his ancestral home in Stirlingshire, Scotland.
It's been in the family since it was built, and appears to be in original condition, for whatever that's worth.
Located at 9888 Boat Club Rd., the property is four stories tall and spans 6,561 square feet, with 4 bedrooms and 4 1/2 bathrooms, and is listed for sale for $4,750,000 by listing agent Kristen Holle of Keller Williams Fort Worth.
The listing avoids the word "update," and makes no mention of the dated kitchen, threadbare living room carpet, not to mention the jaw-dropping $724 price per square foot.
The dated kitchen features an oversized island, flowing into the living room with fireplace, framed by floor-to-ceiling stone walls and multiple archways, also clad instone.
French doors open to a large patio overlooking the lake. The property has a rare grandfathered-in boathouse with panoramic views and a dock reaching into 15 feet of deep water for boating and lakeside recreation.
There are chandeliers and a spiral staircase. A master bedroom suite features dual en-suite baths and a private balcony with lake views. Guest suites come with their own private baths.
Entertainment options include a game room with pool table and access to a rooftop turret, a wood-paneled bar, and an indoor pool and spa.
A private elevator connects all four levels of the estate, beginning with a 4-car garage on the ground floor.
Beyond the main residence, the estate includes a carriage house with full kitchen, bath, balcony, and garage, all overlooking the lake. A separate guest house, privately situated on the South point of the property, offers breathtaking views on Eagle Mountain Lake.
