Jay-Z and Beyoncé have recently acquired a stunning architectural masterpiece in the coveted Malibu area, spanning an impressive 30,000 square feet. The price they paid for this luxurious property was nothing short of extraordinary, coming in at a staggering $200 million, which sets a new record as the highest price ever paid for a home in California, surpassing the previous record of $177 million. Remarkably, this acquisition also stands as the second most expensive real estate deal in the nation, with the top spot held by a $238 million New York City apartment.
Interestingly, the property was quietly listed at an even more astonishing price of $295 million, making their purchase an incredible bargain in comparison.
Perched on an 8-acre bluff with breathtaking views of the Pacific Ocean in the esteemed Paradise Cove area, often referred to as “Billionaires’ Row,” this home is not only a symbol of opulence but also an architectural gem. It was meticulously designed by the renowned Japanese master architect Tadao Ando, who is also responsible for the design of Kanye West’s Malibu residence.
The house was originally conceived and constructed by William Bell, a globally renowned art collector. It took Bell nearly 15 years to bring this all-concrete masterpiece to life.
This isn’t the couple’s first foray into substantial real estate investments in the Los Angeles region. In 2017, they purchased a Bel-Air mansion for $88 million and subsequently invested millions more in renovations, elevating the property’s value to over $100 million.
