Newly stripped of his “prince” title, Andrew is moving from his Windsor mansion, Royal Lodge, to the Sandringham estate in Norfolk, it is understood.
Formal notice was given to surrender the lease at the Royal Lodge on Thursday, and the move will take place as soon as possible.
The historic, sprawling estate spans approximately 31 sq miles (80 sq km) of gardens – making it around the same size as Nottingham or Brighton and Hove.
It was bought as a private country retreat for the future Edward VII when he was Albert, Prince of Wales in 1862, and has since been passed down from monarch to monarch.
