Securing a mortgage for a UK castle may sound like a fairytale, but it’s a viable option for those looking to own a piece of history.

Buying a castle isn’t just about purchasing a home; it’s about investing in a historical monument. These properties feature unique elements like handcrafted stonework and expansive lands, carrying centuries of heritage.

However, buying a castle is more complex than purchasing a regular house.

It requires a different approach, particularly in terms of financing. Here, we’ll delve into the process of securing a mortgage for a castle and offer some tips to turn your dream into reality.

Understanding Castle Mortgages

Purchasing a castle involves unique mortgage requirements and considerations, such as non-standard construction, listed status, and historical value.

From a mortgage standpoint, castles are categorised as non-standard construction buildings, which include any structure that deviates from the typical stone or brick walls and tile or slate roofs.

Additionally, castles, like any pre-1840 property, are considered listed buildings.

This combination reduces the number of lenders willing to finance a castle purchase.

Using an experienced mortgage broker can provide access to specialist lenders and banks that are enthusiastic about helping you become the king or queen of your castle.
