Got $10 million? The Queen and Prince Philip’s first marital home is for sale
If you have ever wanted to live in luxury, you now have the chance.
The Queen and Prince Philip’s former home has just hit the market and it may not be as beautiful as it once was, but it sure is as grandeur.
While she was still a newlywed princess enjoying her time with her new husband Prince Philip, the royal couple lived in this townhouse in Malta townhouse, while Philip was stationed as a naval officer between 1949 to 1951.
What makes the home even more special is the fact it is the only home the Queen lived in outside of the United Kingdom.
The property is a bit of a fixer upper now, however, it is not hard to image what the impressive mansion-like home would have looked like when the royals lived there.
The Maltese home is located on the outskirts of Valletta and has a pretty phenomenal view over Marsamxett Harbour. There are photos of the couple at the time gazing over the villa’s roof terrace into the majestic waters.
The Palazzo-style property boasts an impressive arched entrance hall with its original wide staircase, stone floors and a number of fireplaces still intact.
The six-bedroom villa also hosts a generous three bathrooms, large lounge room, dining room, living room and kitchen.
“Visiting Malta is always very special for me,” the Queen said during a visit to the country. “I remember happy days here with Prince Philip when we were first married.”
The home is currently on the market for $9.7 million.
