Prince William Offers First Video Tour of New Home with Kate Middleton
Prince William and Kate Middleton have recently relocated to their new residence, Forest Lodge. This stately Georgian mansion is not only historic but also boasts modern comforts suitable for their royal duties.
Overview of Forest Lodge
Forest Lodge, where the couple moved earlier this month, is a remarkable 328 years old. The mansion features:
- Eight spacious bedrooms
- A grand ballroom
- A tennis court
- Cottages for security personnel and nannies
Interior Design and Aesthetic
The home’s interior design reflects a tasteful and discreet style, largely attributed to Kate Middleton’s choices. During a recent filming for the Royal British Legion, glimpses of the interior were revealed. Key features include:
- A stunning double door with gold trim
- Plush red curtains
- Soft blue wallpaper
- Numerous framed works of art
According to interiors expert Benji Lewis, the design aims for an “English, elegant grand country house” vibe. The rooms are designed to be breezy and spacious, featuring high ceilings and tall windows that allow natural light to fill the space.
Future Plans for the Residence
It has been reported that the couple intends to make Forest Lodge their long-term residence. This decision suggests that when William ascends to the throne, he and Kate will not reside at Buckingham Palace. Their new home signifies a modern approach to royal living.
With these thoughtful design elements and ample space, Forest Lodge represents a welcoming environment for the future King William and Queen Kate.
