Built by Roman James Design, the house features luxurious amenities and exquisite finishes, such as a gaming room, wine cellar, movie theater, fitness studio, sauna, and steam shower room.

Despite his lavish spending, Castro is currently facing a lawsuit disputing his lottery winnings. After several months of waiting, it was announced that he had won the grand prize.

However, another man, Jose Rivera, claimed to be the rightful winner of the Powerball jackpot, stating that he purchased the ticket one day before the winning numbers were revealed.
