The home is the most expensive sold in California and the second most expensive ever recorded nationwide, according to Robb Report.

Beyonce’s new home was built in the late 1990s by Bill Bell — the son of soap opera creators for The Young and the Restless and The Bold and the Beautiful — and his wife Maria Bell, according to the Robb Report.

The home took 15 years to plan and build, only being finished in 2014 and housing the couple’s enormous art collection including pieces by Jeff Koons and Andy Warhol.

When the Carters bought the property, it was first listed at a whopping $295 million, according to The Malibu Times.

The 30,000-square-foot home sits on 8 acres at the top of Pacific Cove along the Pacific Coast Highway offering picturesque views of the Pacific Ocean.

It was designed by Japanese architect Tadao Ando who is known for his minimalistic and concrete-oriented style, according to The Malibu Times.

The home is L-shaped with open spaces separated by concrete walls and floor-to-ceiling glass windows.

There is a large pool equipped with a patio and grassy lawn to look out over the ocean.

The infamous couple also owns a Bel-Air mansion that they purchased for $88 million in 2017, which is now reportedly worth $100 million due to changes they have made, according to local CW Television Network affiliate KTLA.

Before the purchase of their Bel-Air home, the family lived in multiple high-end rental properties, according to Style.

The rentals included a 13,000-square-foot home that was once a Presbyterian church, a $400,000-a-month coastal villa on the Pacific Coast Highway in Malibu, and a 30,000 square-foot Holmby Hills estate, per Style.

The Carters have also stayed multiple nights at a luxury $2 million-a-night Hamptons mansion.

Beyonce will presumably return to her new California home after her 57-concert Renaissance World Tour.

The star will reportedly make $2 billion from the tour.
