Yippee! I'm getting some new neighbors! Welcome to the neighborhood Duke and Duchess!
According to Sky News the newly wed couple will be taking up temporary residence in Kensington Palace.
Here is what Sky News had to say:
The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge will move into a home at Kensington Palace in the coming weeks, St James's Palace has said.
Prince William and Kate Middleton currently live in a rented house in Anglesey, north Wales, where William works as an RAF search and rescue helicopter pilot.
But in June or July, they will move into an apartment in the palace, a spokesman said.
For William, it will be a return to the place he lived with Prince Harry and his mother Diana, Princess of Wales, after her divorce from Prince Charles.
The apartment he will share with his new bride, however, will not be the same property he used to live in.
Currently, when they are in the capital, William and Kate share an apartment at Clarence House with Prince Harry.
A spokesman from St James's Palace said: "We can confirm that The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge's official London residence will temporarily become a property at Kensington Palace.
"A number of options for longer term solutions are still being considered.
"The couple's main home will continue to be their house on Anglesey, and their Household Office will continue to be based at St James's Palace."

Britain's Richest Street Revealed
I read the below and just had to share. Mostly because I live a 5 minute walk from Kensington Palace (former home of Princess Diana) and I walk by this street all the time and had no idea.
Even though they said you can't go down it for a stroll, I'm not so sure that's correct because I'm pretty sure I've walked down it before. Granted there are gates and sometimes guards, but when the gates are open I help myself to a little stroll from time to time... I could be thinking of a different street but I don't think so...
In Nashville I lived in the same subdivision as a member of the country band SheDaisy (yeah, don't worry no one ever knows who that is) and up the street from a Grand Ole Opry legend Stonewall Jackson, but I think Britain's Richest Street may beat that? hmm... does it help if the Homes of Country Music Stars tour buses use to pass my street every day? yeah, I didn't think so...

The Daily Mail (we read it for amusement) recently published an article about the most expensive streets in Britain and surprise – the most expensive one is in London.It’s a street so exclusive – you can’t even go down it for a stroll as it’s protected by diplomatic security services.
Property on Kensington Palace Gardens is so expensive – it costs £1,193 per square feet (about $1600 USD).
Here’s a picture:
