Ex-Prince Andrew Has Finally Relocated to His Permanent New Home: Report
Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor's former estate, the Royal Lodge, is reportedly in a state of disrepair.
Over the last few months, Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor has been facing an increasingly turbulent phase marked by constant legal troubles, public criticism, and rising isolation from the royal family members. After being stripped of his royal titles by King Charles, Andrew was arrested in February 2026 over allegations of misconduct. In addition to this, he was also banned from attending several key royal events and was evicted from the Royal Lodge. Now, it has been reported that Andrew has relocated to his permanent residence on the Sandringham Estate.
As reported by HELLO Magazine, the former prince has quietly been shifted to Marsh Farm on the Sandringham Estate. He reportedly arrived at the said location on Easter Monday and spent his first night at the secluded farmhouse, signaling the start of a different chapter. Additionally, Andrew was also spotted walking his dogs alone nearby, while some of the staff members were seen transporting his belongings into the property. One of his most treasured possessions, among other items, was a collection of grand paintings, which previously decorated his former residence, the Royal Lodge.
It is worth noting that just before Andrew shifted to Marsh Farm, this property, which consists of five bedrooms, underwent proper renovations, with the new additions including furnishings like carpets, and the stables located outside. Moreover, serious concerns about the property’s closeness to public roads have also been addressed by a few security upgrades, including a six-foot perimeter fence and a comprehensive CCTV network in the surrounding area. Royal fans have previously observed Andrew visiting the property to check on the renovations.
On the other hand, the Duke of York's former estate, the Royal Lodge, is reportedly in a state of disrepair. Due to this, there is very little enthusiasm among the royal family members to take it over. Even royal biographer, Andrew Lownie, spoke about the 30-room mansion and said, "I think they've got to change the security cordon, perhaps, and make it a public building open for people to visit, maybe as a tribute, for example, to the Queen Mother and the late Queen, who grew up there. That might be one option."
On October 30 last year, Buckingham Palace shared an official statement announcing the monarch's decision to strip Andrew of all his titles and privileges. As reported by People Magazine, the statement read, "His Majesty has today initiated a formal process to remove the Style, Titles and Honours of Prince Andrew. Prince Andrew will now be known as Andrew Mountbatten Windsor." It also talked about his living arrangements, stating, "His lease on Royal Lodge has, to date, provided him with legal protection to continue in residence. Formal notice has now been served to surrender the lease, and he will move to alternative private accommodation. These censures are deemed necessary, notwithstanding the fact that he continues to deny the allegations against him."
