Meet the owners Tom and Shawn Carlson, learn about their journey in restoring the last standing O’Leary castle and the get an insight into the current standing and developmentsĀ
The story begins with a search on the O'Leary family as Shawn's maiden name is O'Leary, resulting in an ad for the last standing O'Leary castle. It seemed like fate so the family packed up and took a trip to see a part of their family history. Then they were hooked and on their way to becoming a part of the Castle's long history.
Restoration has been in progress since they acquired the castle. However, the project was put on hold during covid like so many things. Currently the grounds are undergoing development and the limes coating has been restored to the castle. However, there is still a long way to go repairing flooring, windows, doors, and replacing roofing.
