Prince William finally received the green light for his ambitious plans and seemingly won a major victory to secure his future reign as king.
William, heir to the British throne, received a nice update as he prepared for the future role.
The Prince was allowed to build a new property in 2027 in Shepton Mallet, Somers.
This remarkable achievement marks an important milestone in his journey, paving the way to a bright future as a future King.
With each success, William strengthens his position and sets a shining example for others to follow. The path to greatness became much brighter after this development.
As Duke of Cornwall, William heads the Duchy of Cornwall, a vast portfolio of properties and land that reportedly spans 23 counties and includes housing estates, castles and commercial properties.
As reported by Hello!By 2027, 620 homes will be built in Shepton Mallet. The plans of the future monarch have just been approved, after long negotiations and many comings and goings. In the past, high levels of phosphate in nearby waters have blocked housing plans.
The Duchy is working with developer CG Fry and Son Ltd, and the new property will also include a primary school, care home and commercial space.
It has been claimed that 30 per cent of homes will be ‘affordable homes’, part of the government’s drive to ensure the UK has affordable housing.
Typically, new build properties have around 10 per cent affordable housing, so for this Somerset project to be up to 30 per cent, the Duchy’s efforts will be applauded.
The rules establish how the property of the Duchy works.
“A charter ruled that each future Duke of Cornwall would be the eldest surviving son of the monarch and heir to the throne,” making Prince George Duke of Cornwall and controller of the duchy upon his father’s accession to the throne one day.
The estate reportedly provides William with a private income of around £23 million a year, which is used to fund his charitable, private and official endeavors.
The income also covers the cost of staffing William and Kate’s household, with staff numbers rising from 66 to 68 in the year to April.
