Will Harry & Meghan buy any of these North American hideouts?
Ever since the Duke and Duchess of Sussex signalled their intention to step back as senior members of the Royal Family, questions have been asked about where they’ll live.
Harry and Meghan spent Christmas at a Canadian retreat with their son Archie and the royal couple later revealed that they plan to balance their time between the United Kingdom and North America.
As the world’s media speculate on what comes next for the most talked-about husband and wife on the planet right now, here at Rightmove we’ve picked four stunning properties that Harry and Meghan may call home in the future.
Join us as we explore the North American hideouts that could be on their home-hunting radar…
Mont Tremblant, Canada
If it’s serenity and tranquillity that the royal couple desire between trips jet-setting the globe to promote their charity work, this breath-taking lodge north of Montreal might just be the ticket.
Ivry-Sur-Le-Lac is a stunningly luxurious seven-bedroom cabin overlooking the gorgeous Lake Manitou. Built in 2002, this exclusive country retreat is located on an eight acre estate.
The surrounding woodlands comprise beautifully maintained English gardens, so Harry will feel right at home here. It also boasts 1km of walking paths and even two waterfalls.
The property’s central hub is the 40ft x 40ft octagonal great room, ideal for entertaining celebrity guests. The sale also includes a golf cart, a 24ft-long pontoon and two kayaks at its private shore.
This property is listed for sale with Alpine Property Investments.
Nova Scotia, Canada
This impressively contemporary waterfront retreat may resonate with Prince Harry and his former military career because it was once a Second World War observation tower strategically positioned to guard Halifax Harbour.
The spectacular and unique home, now a modern masterpiece of concrete, steel, stone and glass, is nestled in a picture-perfect location where coastal barrens give way to rugged granite cliffs, pounded by the Atlantic surf.
Among its standout features is an enchanting ocean view infinity pool, a private roof deck with a hot tub and wood burning fireplace and marble walls to satisfy Meghan’s penchant for style.

Miami, USA
Where better to retire from frontline duties in the Royal Family than at an oceanfront apartment overlooking one of Miami’s finest beaches.
This phenomenally impressive three-bedroom property is found in the Porsche Design Tower, where residents can enjoy a private restaurant with a chic lounge bar surveying the skyline, a sunset terrace with spa tubs, a state-of-the-art fitness centre, and even a VIP cinema.
But the quirkiest feature of this place, which will be handy when baby Archie is old enough to drive, is the robotic car lift for your private sky garage, which is separated from the living room by a large glass wall.
Residents drive into the cylinder where a turntable spins the car towards the lift doors. With the car in position, the doors open and a skid slides underneath, locks around the wheels and pulls the car into the lift.
This property is listed for sale with Sphere Estates.
Colorado, USA
Tucked away in the Pine River Valley of southwestern Colorado, Pine Ridge Ranch offers captivating views of Granite Peak and the Continental Divide, and is the perfect place to escape the rat race.
This sprawling, scenic mountain ranch spans an incredible 1,300 acres – more than 100 times bigger than Harry’s beloved Twickenham Stadium – and is home to outstanding wildlife including elk, deer, turkey and a host of other game animals.
The property, which is a great ski base in the winter, also comes with a 1,735-sq ft guesthouse should Kate and Wills (or even Her Majesty The Queen) be invited over to stay.
