York Cottage, Royal residence in Sandringham Estate, Norfolk, England
York Cottage stands on the Sandringham Estate grounds as a red-brick structure with multiple chimneys and traditional English architectural elements from the Victorian period.
The residence, formerly known as Bachelor's Cottage, became the home of Prince George and Princess Mary in 1893 when King Edward VII presented it as their wedding gift.
The interior of York Cottage contains furnishings selected by King George V himself, including numerous pieces from the Maple & Co furniture collection.
The building currently functions as the administrative office for the Sandringham Estate and provides accommodation for estate employees and holiday visitors.
Five children of King George V and Queen Mary were born within the walls of York Cottage during their 33-year residence at the property.
