What the Royal Family's Palaces and Homes Really Look Like?
Your guide to the castles and palaces that Queen Elizabeth II, Prince William, and the rest of the royal family call home:
According to British Newspapers, Queen Elizabeth the Second Has an Overall Fortune of $421 Million, a Lot of This Money is Spent Maintaining Her Various Properties Across the Uk
In Short, the Queen "Owns" Immense Amounts of Property, but She Couldn't Sell Most of It if She Wanted to.
Of Her Entire Portfolio, Her Prime Properties Are Split Between Four Crown-owned and Two Privately-owned Residences — Passed Down From Her Father, King George the Sixth.
It's in These Six Opulent Palaces That the Queen Spends Almost All of Her Time, Let's Explore Them
Where Does the Royal Family Live?
Crown-owned: Buckingham Palace

Crown-owned: Windsor Castle
Notable for Its Long Association With the English and Later British Royal Family and for Its Architecture.
