Nominations for best real estate

I'm taking nominations for "best real estate" on UOSA. I want to start a poll in a couple days and see what people think. Mostly, I'm just curious about how people value certain plots of land. This is EXCLUDING housing decoration... I just want to talk land plots. Also, must be just one-house plots. If you own all of the Despise valley, or Hidden Valley, that's cool, but I'm talking one house, one location.

My preliminary list might include:

Blanche Island 7x7 (owned by caveman)
Wind 7x7 (owned by...?)
Caswallon's castle (Vesper peninsula)
Onslaught's tower at the bridge with the statues
Justice Island (roadkill's rune library)
7x7 at the ice island shrine (owned by...?)
either of the two Brit moongate houses (owned by...?)
Froot Loop's Brit Moongate tower
Shrine of Spirituality Tower (now owned by Alex the Artist?)

Taking ideas on the rest. I'll have to narrow it down to a 10-item poll to actually run it. Just a fun, curious question though. I'm sure I'm missing some good ones.

I like that spot, but I don't see what differentiates it from about 3 or 4 other castles in some pretty isolated clearings. Is it the only castle where not even a 7x7 can also be placed on the screen?

Also, I'll add any of the three Magincia beach houses.

And the tower at the very end of the valley North/West of Wind.

I'll take a look for that keep.

I remember the 2-story, that looked nice.

Shadowmire castle, good call.

At this point, I think there's two polls worth of houses. I'll try to get screenshots of all of them tonight, and put them up in a couple polls.

Still looking for further nominations, too!

What is this? Are you talking about the 7x7 through a path up in the North Mines (north of Ascalon)?

Should take my tower off that list. With it on there, it's no contest. That tower spot is the best tower spot in the game, hands down.

P.S. - And it will be for sale soon!

Yea. Also I think that the spirituality shrine tower is better than onslaught's. Also would like to add the Hythloth Entrance Towet

Roadkills brick on Justice island that can fit a tower is the best there is.

I would like to add, that afaik, wing-to-wing towers are NEA!
