Inside Beyoncé and Jay-Z’s real estate empire: What luxury homes have they bought, sold and rented?

Singer Beyoncé and rapper Jay-Z have bought multimillion-dollar homes, rented sprawling estates and sold properties across the United States. Their real estate portfolio includes Manhattan penthouse where they married, $88 million mansion in Bel Air and Malibu property they purchased for $190 million in 2023.

Beyoncé and Jay-Z’s $190 Million Malibu Mansion

The couple paid $190 million for a Malibu mansion. And the purchase had set a record for the most expensive residential property sale in California in 2023.

As per Architectural Digest, the home is about 40000 square feet. Japanese architect Tadao Ando had designed the residence. It has eight bedrooms, 11 bathrooms, four pools, bar and helipad.


However the California record was later surpassed in 2024 when another Malibu property sold for $210 million.

The $88 Million Bel Air Estate

Beyoncé and Jay-Z bought their Bel Air mansion in 2017. Which they got for $88 million. As per Business Insider report, the property spans about 34000 square feet, has eight bedrooms and 20 bathrooms.

The estate includes a media room, wellness facilities, four outdoor pools and helipad. The property was developed by Dean McKillen, who is son of Irish property investor Paddy McKillen. The lot had been purchased for $15 million before the mansion was built.

They also rented La Villa Contenta in Malibu in 2017 for $400000 per month. The roughly 12000 square foot property is on 6.3 acres. Also includes movie theater, gym and wine cellar.

The Manhattan Penthouse Where They Got Married

Jay-Z bought a penthouse in September 2004 at 195 Hudson Street in Manhattan’s Tribeca neighborhood for $6.85 million. The apartment has about 8000 square feet of interior space. And a 3000 square foot terrace.

The building was originally a brick warehouse which was constructed in 1929. It was later converted into apartments. Beyoncé and Jay-Z married at the penthouse in 2008 in front of about 40 guests.

Beyoncé also owned a three bedroom Manhattan condo. She bought it in 2005 for $5 million and sold it in 2017 for approximately $9.95 million.

A Former New Orleans Church Became a Residence

Another property of the couple is La Casa de Castille in New Orleans’ Garden District. The building was constructed as a Presbyterian church in the 1920s, became a ballet theater in 1977 and was later converted into a residence.

The three story property covers about 13300 square feet. It has seven bedrooms, eight bathrooms, stained glass windows, 16 foot ceilings and rooftop garden. Along with three apartments separate from the main residence.

While the exact purchase price was not established. It was listed for $2.6 million around that time. After a fire in 2021, the property was reportedly listed for $3.5 million and later relisted at $4.45 million. The listing was eventually withdrawn. However, public records remain unclear as to who currently owns it.

The $26 Million Hamptons Home

Beyoncé and Jay-Z bought Pond House in East Hampton for $26 million in 2017. The approximately 12000 square foot home has seven bedrooms, 7.5 bathrooms and a separate cottage.

Designed by architect Stanford White, the property is near Georgica Pond and borders a 17 acre meadow preserve. It also has about 203 feet of waterfront.

Before buying Pond House, the couple rented a mansion in Bridgehampton in 2012 for $400000 a month. The 31000 square foot rental had a bowling alley, climbing wall, skateboard half-pipe, swimming pool and tennis court.

A Miami Villa and Beyoncé’s Childhood Home

The couple’s property history also includes Mediterranean style villa on Miami’s Indian Creek Island. The home had seven bedrooms, eight bathrooms and private boat dock. They reportedly paid slightly more than $9 million for it and sold it in 2010 for $9.3 million.

Then in Houston, Beyoncé’s family bought a house at 2414 Rosedale Street in 1982. She lived there until she was about 5 years old. The three bedroom, three bathroom home was listed for approximately $500000 in 2019. But its final sale price was not publicly disclosed.

Are They Planning to Buy an English Estate

The couple have also been linked to a possible property project in England’s Cotswolds region. The Times reported that they were considering a 58 acre plot in Wigginton listed for £7.5 million/ about $8.54 million.

Developing the land could bring the total cost to approximately £18 million/ or $20.5 million. However, the reported interest does not confirm that they bought the property.
