A £68m mansion with four pools... now Beyoncé’s the new princess of Bel Air
POP icon Beyoncé and rapper husband Jay-Z are cementing their position as LA royalty – as they seek to buy one of the city’s most spectacular homes.
The £68.5 million, two-acre estate in Bel Air should provide enough space for the superstar couple – together worth an estimated £880 million – along with their five-year-old daughter Blue Ivy, and newborn twins Rumi and Sir.
The newly-built 30,000sq ft home has a spa, media room, four outdoor pools and a 15-car garage. It also has more than 10,000 sq ft of patio and terrace space. Bulletproof, floor-toceiling glass walls on two sides offer panoramic views across the city.
The home – bought from Irish property magnate Dean McKillen – also comes with a full-size basketball court. Last year, the couple’s £40million bid for the home of the late James Bond film producer Albert ‘Cubby’ Broccoli in Beverly Hills was beaten by designer Tom Ford.
