I'm intrigued as to the reason the castle was built at all. What narrative purpose does it serve?  Think about it for a second, in a residential area, JB built a medieval castle.  Granted that the neighbors are deaf, dumb and blind, given all the mayhem that has occurred at Harry's home.  But a castle?

A castle is a lot stronger and more solid than most modern construction. A really old castle probably also has more of a threshold and more resistant to magical attack, especially from powerful non human monsters from the nevernever.  Remember Marcone got his armored safe house broken into by the Denarians. I'm pretty sure that place was a modern fortress.
