The castle was built in the mid-1800s by the 2nd Earl of Gosford, Archibald Acheson, and was passed down until 1921.

During the Second World War the Castle was used to accommodate troops and a prisoner of war camp was set up in the estate.

In 2006, the castle was bought by Gosford Castle Development Limited who put forward a £4 million proposal, ($6.9 million CAD), to restore the castle, which was then split into 23 luxury residences — six of which are up for sale in this listing with an average space of 3,500 square-feet each.

Although the cast won’t be back to film, this castle is the perfect place to experience the final moments of the season, and once it’s over, you can always just pretend you’re the one ruling the Seven Kingdoms — after all, you will be the king of the castle.
