Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, the former prince, has officially moved into Marsh Farm on the Sandringham Estate. The five-bedroom house is located about a mile and a half west of Sandringham House (the main home on the royal family’s private property) and is in the village of Wolferton. Here’s what to know about the history of Marsh Farm:

Sandringham, perhaps best known as the home where the Windsors spend their Christmases, was purchased as a country home for Edward VII, then Prince of Wales in 1862.

Marsh Farm is part of the estate, located in the town of Wolferton. Per the BBC, “The old farmhouse has outbuildings and stables and access to the larger estate, but is far smaller than his former home, the 30-bedroom Royal Lodge at Windsor Castle’s wider estate. Seen as a downgrade, it has just five bedrooms and two bathrooms and is situated next to a country road.”

It was originally a farmhouse.

The King’s Homeland, published in 1904, describes Marsh Farm: “For a few minutes’ stroll along the rough marsh roadway, which branches off from the main road through the village near a farmhouse known as the Marsh Farm, will bring him to the embankment, or sea-wall, which protects the reclaimed land from the sea. But he must not expect to find beyond this sea-wall a shingly beach or a stretch of golden sand, for not of such are the shores of Wash. Instead he will see, if the tide be out, an apparently limitless expanse of gleaming—and often steaming—ooze.”

Marsh Farm reportedly underwent major renovations ahead of Andrew’s move.

According to Hola, “The interiors were upgraded with luxury carpets from Linney Cooper, a company known for supplying the Royal Household, along with modern amenities including high-speed internet and satellite television. Security was also significantly reinforced due to the property’s proximity to a public road, with the addition of a near two-meter wooden perimeter fence, CCTV systems, security lighting, and even an airspace restriction zone.”
