After even opening the gardens of Buckingham Palace for picnics Prince Charles has just announced that when he becomes king he will make the main royal residences “public”, allowing visitors to enter rooms and halls never seen before, to see the great works of art guarded by the Crown up close and even browse to understand what life is like as a king. If instead we wanted to rent them, how much would they cost us?
An unlikely scenario, given that the royal family has lived in the same “houses” for centuries, but curious to investigate: English society took care of it Uncle who, based on the square meters of the buildings and the average prices of the areas considered, calculated how much it could cost to rent them for a month, drawing up a ranking that you can find in full in the gallery above.
In the first place it could only stand out Buckingham Palace, the official residence of London, where the queen lives and where Charles of England will live when he becomes king (unless he decides to interrupt the tradition), as well as the venue for all official meetings: with 775 rooms and 77 thousand square meters, it would cost almost 3 million euros a month. In second place there is St James’s, London residence of Princess Anne: with its 16,500 square meters, also due to its enviable position between Mayfair and St James Park, it would cost almost 2 million euros. In third place, then, there is Windsor, the residence where Queen Elizabeth remained in isolation during the pandemic, and where the royal family normally spends their weekends: over 1000 rooms, 53 thousand square meters, due to its secluded position from London it would cost “just” one and a half million a month.
To save (so to speak of course), you should choose the Nottingham Cottage, the least expensive residence among those considered: 9000 euros per month. It is a villa with two living rooms, two bedrooms and a small garden where he now lives Beatrice of York and where Prince Harry and Meghan Markle lived before moving to Frogmore Cottage, where they spent over £ 2 million on the refurbishment and then ran away. The Frogmore, however, it would also be the only free house: after the Sussex dukes, Eugenie of York and her husband Jack Brooksbank lived there for a few months and then they abandoned it too. There are 5 rooms, a gym, a garden with several ponds full of frogs (from which it takes its name), and it would cost 20 thousand euros per month. Basically a bargain.
