Prince William and Kate Middleton might once again be moving. As a reminder, the pair started their royal lives in Apartment 1A at Kensington Palace, before relocating to a country home called Anmer Hall. But they moved again in 2022, situating themselves at Adelaide Cottage on the Windsor Estate.
The family have only been there about three years, but are apparently considering yet another move—this time to what the Daily Mail describes as a “a magnificent gothic-revival mansion nestled in a hidden corner of Windsor Great Park” called Fort Belvedere.
Fort Belvedere sits on 59 acres and has a private outdoor swimming pool, a personal tennis court, a rose garden, a greenhouse, private stables, multiple lakes, paddocks, and three staff cottages. The 18th century home also has a lot of history, and is where Edward VIII lived before he abdicated the throne. Also, it straight up looks like a castle:

Per a source, Wills and Kate “feel they have outgrown Adelaide Cottage and need somewhere more substantial. This is the perfect new home for them. It has a swimming pool and tennis court, and Charlotte loves playing tennis.”
There were previous reports that Kate and William might move their young family to the Royal Lodge, where Prince Andrew currently lives. However, Andrew refuses to leave so that isn’t an option. There’s also been speculation that they could move into a wing at Windsor Castle proper, but apparently that’s no longer on the table either.
