This Sudbury Home Costs More Than A Castle In France

SUDBURY, MA — The real estate market in the MetroWest area is crazy — so crazy, a recently-built mansion here costs more than a castle in France.

This 6,300 square-foot home along Bridle Path in Sudbury built in 1987 just hit the market for $2.2 million. It has some nice features, and it's a relatively quick commute to Boston.

But consider this: the Bridle Path home is more expensive than a literal castle. If you browse international real estate listings, you can find chalets, estates and more for about the same price. This castle in the Brittany region of France was built in 1780, has an ocean view and it's about $40,000 cheaper than the Bridle Path home.
