This might be as close as you can get to living a feudal dream.

For $31 million to $35 million, someone can own the entire English village of Linkenholt, which goes on sale this week. The whole lot includes 22 houses, 1,500 acres of farmland, 450 acres of trees, a place to play cricket, a shop, even a blacksmith's forge. Just the thing for that new set of mail.

"It would be nice if somebody bought the estate and lived here and was lord of the nanor to be quite honest," blacksmith Colin Boast told Reuters. "That's the general consensus of everyone in the village."
