A two-bedroom house it is said to be one of the smaller properties within Kensington Palace and is just a stone's throw from Buckingham Palace.Designed by Sir Christopher Wren, whose work included the design of St Paul's Cathedral, the house has been reported to have two reception rooms, a kitchen bathroom and a garden.
Harry said: “As far as people were concerned, we were living in a Palace. And we were… in a cottage.” Marlene Koenig, a historian who has spent decades researching European royalty, tweeted: “Nott[ingham] Cottage was designed by sir Christopher Wren. Harry says he doesn’t know who lived in it before him. The previous tenants were his brother and sister-in-law & baby George. His aunt Jane & uncle Robert live[d] there, as well as the late Duke & Duchess of Gloucester.”
