We had the 2:30pm tour. We wereclucky as our tour guide used to live there when he attended RPI. He was very knowledgeable and knew all the answers to the questions. This was well worth the $23. I highly recommend this next Victorian Stroll or whenever it will be open again.
I’ve been inside this treasure of a home a handful of times during the annual Victorian Stroll in downtown Troy NY, at which time it was, and may still be, open to the public. It was owned by a RPI fraternity for many years. Each room on the lower level is unique, emulating various styles of architecture from Europe’s greatest cities. The ornate woodwork, hardwood floors, marble fireplaces, grand staircases, Tiffany stained glass and other unique features make this home nothing short of breathtaking. I heard that it would cost over $20 million to build this home today. I wouldn’t be surprised if that’s a low valuation. A crown jewel of Troy and well worth a visit, if you’re lucky enough to have the opportunity, take it!!
Unique architecture and stunning event venue in Troy, NY. Used in Martin Scorcese movies and HBO Julian Fellowes series The Gilded Age. Available for rent.
Paine Castle Troy is finally open to be booked for Events on the weekends. Here are some pictures from our Cocktails and Casino fundraiser for the Paine Castle Foundation.
The Castle is truly gorgeous! We went during the Victorian Stroll and it was decorated for Christmas - truly breathtaking. I'm glad they're renovating and restoring it!
