The property was officially passed on to William and Kate upon his coronation. The 18th Century estate was acquired by the Duchy of Cornwall back in 1980, with a price tag believed to be between £800,000 and £1million.
Following its purchase, the house underwent a complete interior overhaul, stripped bare and painted white before being redecorated. Its swimming pool was a wedding gift to the King when he tied the knot with Princess Diana.
After extensive renovations, the gardens at Highgrove were opened to the public. The website reveals: “When His Majesty first arrived, Highgrove possessed little more than a neglected kitchen garden, an overgrown copse, some pastureland and a few hollow oaks.
“Today, after the hard work of many people, an interlinked series of gardens now unfolds in a succession of personal and inspiring tableaux, each reflecting HM The King’s interests and enthusiasms. Highgrove now welcomes up to 40,000 visitors a year.”
In 1992, Highgrove shops made their debut in Tetbury and London, with the online shop reportedly launching in 2014.
