Beyoncé and Jay-Z are already setting up for next summer. The couple just spent $26 million on a 12,000-square-foot estate in East Hampton, Behind the Hedges first reported, and it’s about as extravagant as you’d expect for two music moguls with a net worth of more than $1 billion. Scroll down to see inside.
The home has seven bedrooms and seven and a half bathrooms.
The Pond House, as it’s known, was originally built by Stanford White of McKim, Mead & White, the firm responsible for Manhattan’s original Pennsylvania Station and Columbia University’s main campus.
It sits on two acres with 203 feet of frontage on Georgica Pond.
The previous owner rotated the house 90 degrees.
Hamptons builder Jeffrey Colle, who is currently working on a home for Billy Joel in Sag Harbor, turned the house to optimize its waterfront location on Georgica Pond.
A triple-height studio became a 30-foot-tall living room facing the pond to the west.
Here’s the entrance hall.
The bathrooms feature Italian marble carved from single blocks from Verona.
There’s also an 18th-century carved stone fireplace in the kitchen.
In August, the couple spent $88 million on a compound in Los Angeles.
Now they’re set up to live large on both coasts!
