Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor moves to modest Marsh Farm while retaining £3 million net worth
Former royal Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor now lives in a five-bedroom farmhouse on the Sandringham estate after being forced out of his 30-room Windsor lodge, yet he still holds assets worth about £3 million.
Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor was compelled to leave his expansive 30-room Royal Lodge in Windsor Great Park and relocate to Marsh Farm, a five-bedroom former farmhouse on the King’s Sandringham Estate in Norfolk, in February. The move marks a stark reduction in living standards, prompting brand expert Nick Ede to suggest it likely dented his ego, while one outlet senior editor Richard Kay described his current existence as fairly empty.
Despite the downgrade, the former prince retains “significant assets” with an estimated net worth of £3 million. He was arrested on February 19 on suspicion of misconduct in public office, a charge he denies, and Thames Valley Police later released him while the investigation continues. Sources say he was initially “appalled” by the smaller home but has resigned himself to making the best of the situation. Nearby, a converted former railway station on the same road is listed for sale at £1.25 million.
