Sister Aimee's Castle - Edwin Bickman, Architect.
Aptly sited high on a hilltop between heaven and earth overlooking Lake Elsinore, Aimee’s Castle, as it has come to be known, was created as a retreat for renowned evangelist and founder of the International Church of the Foursquare Gospel, Aimee Semple McPherson. Rooted in Moorish Revival architecture with a touch of Art Deco, it has undergone extensive repairs, and with gleaming white plaster walls, minaret style spires, cerulean blue tiled dome topping a prayer tower, and original interiors with Moorish arches and intricate wall and ceiling decorations, it has again become a significant Southern California landmark. Includes a breathtaking panoramic lake view, large pool and terrace, atrium, oversized living room, domed dining room, kitchen, 5 bedrooms, 6 baths, including servants quarters, gym, and a 2-car garage with direct access through a hidden tunnel. Also included are 8 additional lots in various locations.
