Jay-Z and Beyoncé Make Record-Breaking Purchase of California’s Priciest Residence
After concluding her highly successful “Renaissance World Tour,” Beyoncé is set to return to a new home, and it’s nothing short of opulent.
As disclosed by TMZ, power couple Beyoncé and JAY-Z have acquired an expansive 30,000-square-foot residence in Malibu, shattering California’s real estate records with a jaw-dropping price tag of $200 million. This transaction now stands as the most substantial real estate deal in the state’s history, surpassing the previous record of $177 million. Additionally, it claims the second spot on the list of the most expensive home real estate deals in the United States, trailing only a $238 million transaction for a property in New York City.
Surprisingly, the couple managed to secure the property at a relative bargain, considering it was initially listed for $295 million. With a combined net worth of $2.5 billion, Beyoncé and JAY-Z undoubtedly faced no challenges in securing a mortgage for their new abode.
The residence, a creation of Japanese architect Tadao Ando, was previously owned by art collector William Bell, who dedicated 15 years to constructing this all-concrete marvel. Nestled on an 8-acre property overlooking Malibu’s Paradise Cove, the home is a testament to architectural ingenuity. Photographs showcasing the property’s grandeur can be found below.
This high-profile acquisition further cements the power couple’s status as real estate connoisseurs, adding an unparalleled gem to their already impressive portfolio.
