The most powerful couple in the world music industry owns an impressive real estate worth up to 88 million USD with many luxurious amenities and absolute security.
Jay-Z and Beyoncé are world-famous music legends. The couple has a combined net worth of $1.9 billion (according to Cosmopolitan) and owns many luxurious properties. One of the couple’s most impressive properties is their dream home worth $88 million.
It took Jay-Z and Beyoncé three years to find a home.
As perfectionists, Jay-Z and Beyoncé spent no less than three years searching for their dream home. The couple lived in a string of extremely expensive rental mansions until they found and invested in an $88 million Bel Air estate.
It took Beyoncé and Jay-Z three years to find the perfect home.
According to Love Property, the famous artist couple once lived in a 1,207-square-foot house in New Orleans, which used to be a Presbyterian church, with 10-meter-high ceilings and large windows.
Jay-Z and Beyoncé also stayed at a beachfront mansion on the Pacific Coast Highway in Malibu. The couple welcomed twins Rumi and Sir there. The mansion has 15 bedrooms and 10 bathrooms and can be rented for up to $400,000 a month.
In addition, the Hollywood power couple once rented a mansion located in the luxurious Holmby Hills area. This 15,000 square foot mansion with 7 bedrooms and 8 bathrooms costs $150,000/month. Later, Jay-Z and Beyoncé decided to buy the current Bel Air mansion worth $88 million (asking price is $120) in 2017.

World class facilities
Beyoncé, Jay-Z and their three children currently live in an $88 million mansion with six separate structures and over 2,787 square feet. The house has eight bedrooms and 11 bathrooms and was built by architect Dean McKillen. Not only does it have a large space and massive structures, the house is also equipped with special amenities such as a garage large enough for a collection of luxury supercars, a spa, a home theater, etc.
The movie theater and entertainment room features a large screen, plush furnishings, mood lighting and even a lizard-skin door. Queen Bey’s stylish home has four swimming pools, a basketball court and a separate staff quarters, ensuring round-the-clock service.
According to the Los Angeles Times, despite their huge fortune, to buy the 0.8-hectare hillside plot in Bel-Air for $88 million, Jay-Z and his wife had to take out a $52.8 million mortgage from Goldman Sachs. This means the power couple has to pay a monthly payment of $149,600. The couple paid 40% of the purchase price of the $35.2 million house in cash.
The mansion is protected by bulletproof windows.
In addition to the world-class amenities, there are elements that make this villa stand out: nearly 1,000 square feet of outdoor space, panoramic views of Los Angeles with bulletproof glass windows, absolute security,…
The house has the highest level of security and privacy.
Earlier this year, British Vogue editor-in-chief Edward Enninful dined at the home with Beyoncé, who described it as a comfortable, strikingly minimalist home with beautiful art.
Speaking of art, the home is filled with plenty of praiseworthy pieces. Beyoncé loves work by Ethiopian-American contemporary artists Awol Erizku, Kerry James Marshall and Kara Walker.
The “Break My Soul” hitmaker and her husband also own pieces by David Hammons, Richard Prince and Laurie Simmons. Beyoncé is also a fashion force and has revealed parts of her extensive wardrobe on red carpet appearances.
Beyoncé boasts an impressive art collection.
Rather than simply settling down, the Grammy winners have reportedly spent $800,000 renovating the home, British media reports. Changes to the Bel Air home include installing a $30,000 backup generator and a living area around four pools (one in the attic and three in the backyard) that cost $750,000 to renovate./.
