An entrepreneurial mom bought a derelict 17th-century castle for nearly the equivalent of $300,000 and plans to rope her extended family into renovating it into a plush wedding venue.
Mother-of-two Nicole Rudder, 32, bought the pad in November last year on a whim, without telling her husband Grant, 37 – despite repairs costing an estimated $6 million.
Her husband, who works as a painter and decorator, calls his wife ‘Mrs. Project’ and grudgingly congratulated her although she thinks he may not be very pleased.
