If Disney ever plans to greenlight a live-action remake of “Rapunzel,” it could easily film it on the grounds of this week’s most popular home.

Real estate fans let their hair down and clicked like crazy on a distinctive stone castle in Michigan—complete with a 60-foot-tall tower.

The exterior of the castle is dramatic, and the interior is cozy and modern with plenty of room for family and friends. There’s even space to entertain in the tower, which offers incredible views.

Speaking of Disney, you also clicked on an ultraluxe mansion in Florida’s Walt Disney World that comes with Four Seasons amenities and VIP park access. Apparently, you can make the Magical Kingdom even more magical.

Other properties drawing a crowd this week include the adorable Abbey Rose Farm in Ohio, a bucolic Bucks County retreat, and a Lake Tahoe cabin where you may just encounter a few bears. And the week’s must-see property might well be Perry Elementary, a Pennsylvania elementary school that’s been converted into a multimillion-dollar, award-winning home.

These properties are the stuff of fantasies and fairy tales that are sure to put you in a weekend kind of mood. Take a look.
