With its weathered brick facade and plastic window frames, it's a far cry from the grace-and-favour cottage she enjoyed for years as the Queen's dresser.
But this £465,000 three-bedroom bungalow is a place Angela Kelly, 66, one of Queen Elizabeth's closest confidantes, can finally call home thanks to the generosity of the King.
As reported by the MoS last year, Ms Kelly was asked to leave her Grade II-listed cottage on the Windsor estate within months of Her Majesty's death in 2022.
However, Charles decided to honour his mother's promise of lifelong accommodation for her dedicated employee by discreetly having a house purchased.

Believed to be part of a deal banning Ms Kelly from ever sharing royal secrets, the 80s-style property is 160 miles from Berkshire in the Peak District, and enjoys stunning views of the rolling hills.
