After a search of William and Kate’s new postcode, it states: “There have been no house sales reported to the Land Registry in this postcode since January 1, 1995”.

It has been reported that although there are 185 different house types within that catchment area, including detached properties, terrace houses and flats, there have been no sales in the space of 30 years.

Although the royal couple do not own the property, and they are leasing it from the Crown Estate, it still appears that they could be committing to a long-term lease.

Discussing William and Kate, HELLO’s Danielle Stacey has said: “The Prince and Princess of Wales clearly love living in Windsor, the children are settled at Lambrook School nearby, and they will still be close to Windsor Castle for royal functions and engagements.

“Upsizing to Forest Lodge allows the family more space and has already been viewed as their ‘forever home’, rather than having the children growing up within the walls of a palace.”

The Georgian mansion and its 150-acre perimeter have been cordoned off to ensure the family’s security and privacy.

Prior to their move earlier this month, a source told the Daily Mail: “It is hoped they will be in the new home in time for Bonfire Night. That will make a fun start for the children.”
