It's not often that James Middleton shares details of his sprawling countryside home in Berkshire, but on Friday, the dad-of-one showed an exceptionally rare glimpse of the decor inside his £1.45 million family abode.
Taking to the Instagram account of his dog food and lifestyle company, Ella & James, inspired by his late therapy dog Ella, the entrepreneur, 38, shared a video showing fellow dog owners an enrichment activity to do with their dogs if it's too wet for a walk.
As he's demonstrating the activity, which involves putting his Ella & James dog treats in a cardboard box, James gave fans a glimpse of the stunning decor throughout his home.
Sage green
One of the most notable details was the beautiful hue of sage green covering the walls of the living room, onto which cosy lamps were secured. On one of the verdant walls was a beautiful portrait of James' aforementioned late pup, Ella, near the beautiful fireplace.
Navy blue kitchen
Another glorious detail unveiled by the Princess of Wales' brother was a glimpse of his chic navy blue kitchen cabinets set off by a hardwood work surface.
Captioning the post, James penned: "Not another sopping wet walk... Never fear! Indoor canine enrichment is here. For more wet-weather activities to keep your dogs entertained this weekend, check out the link in my bio."
James' country life
James' country existence is just a stone's throw away from his parents, Carole and Michael Middleton who live at Bucklebury Manor, and his sister Pippa and her husband James Matthews.
The Middletons aren't only close to each other physically, but James recently told us at HELLO! his family, including his royal sister are always on the end of the phone if he needs anything.

"One of the wonderful things about being the youngest [sibling] and having children last is that there is an abundance of paraphernalia that comes in very handy," James says. "Also, it’s the confidence [they give me]. You're always on edge with being a parent, particularly this time of year with coughs and colds and sniffles going around the place.
